Call for papers: Supramolecular Chirality in Self-organised Systems and Thin Films

Contribute to a new themed collection in Nanoscale Advances

We are delighted to announce an open call for papers to our new themed collection focusing on supramolecular chirality in self-organised systems and thin films.

Guest Editors: Professor Ludovico Valli, Professor Simona Bettini, and Professor Gabriele Giancane, all from University of Salento, Italy.

This collection aims to investigate the fascinating world of chiral self-organisation and its applications in various scientific fields. The collection explores the fundamental principles, theoretical models, and experimental techniques that contribute to the understanding of supramolecular chirality in self-organised systems and thin films and aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the current advancements and future prospects in this exciting field. Potential topics of this collection include but are not limited to:

  • Aggregation
  • Asymmetric synthesis
  • Asymmetry
  • Bio-applications of chiral structures
  • Chiral detection
  • Chiral medicines
  • Chirality
  • Chirality in everyday life: communications, cosmetics, fragrances, odours, tastes
  • Chiroptical spectroscopies
  • Host-guest recognition
  • Non-covalent interactions
  • Opto-electronic applications of chiral structures
  • Separation of enantiomers
  • Supramolecular chemistry
  • Supramolecular chirality
  • Theoretical features of chirality
  • Thin films of chiral substances: fabrication, characterization, and applications.

You are invited to submit any time before 30 April 2024.

 

If you are interested in contributing to this collection, please get in touch with the Editorial Office by email at nanoscaleadvances-rsc@rsc.org 

 

Please note that article processing charges apply to all articles submitted to Nanoscale Advances if, following peer-review, they are accepted for publication. Details of the APC and discounted rates can be found here.

Call for papers: Nanoclusters: From Theory to Application

Contribute to a new themed collection in Nanoscale Advances

We are delighted to announce an open call for papers to our new themed collection focusing on Nanoclusters: From Theory to Application.

 

Guest Editors: Yi Gao (Shanghai Advanced Research Institute, Chinese Academy of Sciences, China), Daojian Cheng (Beijing University of Chemical Technology, China) and Zhigang Wang (Jilin University, China).

 

Nanoclusters are small-sized nanoparticles with unique and tunable properties depending on their sizes, structures and compositions. They have potential applications in various fields such as biomedicine, catalysis, energy and nanotechnology. This themed collection is intended to present the most recent developments in the synthesis, characterization, and application of nanoclusters in theoretical and experimental research. It will cover topics such as nanocluster stability, electronic structures, reactivity, magnetism, optical properties, alloying effects, self-assembly and functionalization. The collection will also highlight the challenges and opportunities for nanocluster research and development.

 

You are welcome to submit an original research article within the scope before 31 October 2023.

Congratulations to the poster prize winners at RSC Chemical Nanoscience and Nanotechnology Symposium

Nanoscale Horizons, Nanoscale and Nanoscale Advances were delighted to sponsor poster prizes at the RSC Chemical Nanoscience and Nanotechnology Network Annual Symposium. The symposium took place on 26 and 27 January 2023 at Burlington House in London and welcomed around 100 attendees.

The meeting covered recent developments in fundamentals and applications of novel materials, providing an opportunity for nanoscience and nanotechnology researchers to engage and exchange information. It included plenary lectures, invited talks, contributed presentations, and poster sessions.

We congratulate all poster prize winners!

Nanoscale Horizons poster prize: Mark Hunter, University of Liverpool

 

Nanoscale poster prize: Esmé Shepherd, Kings College London

 

Nanoscale Advances poster prize: Xiangyi Chen, University of St Andrews

We thank all organisers and Chemical Nanoscience and Nanotechnology Committee for organising this conference. You can follow @RSC__CNN on Twitter to keep up to date with the latest news!

Hope to see you again next year!
