    Bi-phasic nanostructures for functional applications
    (Cambridge : Royal Society of Chemistry, 2012) Veith, Michael; Lee, Juseok; Miro, Marina Martinez; Akkan, C. Kaan; Dufloux, Cecile; Aktas, O. Cenk
    Biphasic solid state composites of the type metal/metal oxide or element/element oxide can be synthesized in one pot chemical reactions using so called molecular "single source precursors". Due to their singular genesis these composites show peculiar hetero-structures based on core-shell hierarchies such as superlattices and composite nanospheres or nanowires. They exhibit superior or new functional properties compared to their individual constituent compounds. In the current work, we review in particular the synthetical and mechanistical approach of bi-phasic (Al/Al2O3) nanostructures such as nanospheres, nanowires and nanoloops using a single source precursor. Other bi-phasic materials of the general formula M/MOx (for example M = Ge, Sn, Pb) are addressed for comparison. The impact of different synthetical conditions as well as of modification of surfaces by laser techniques and their technological relevance are presented briefly. Additionally, functional applications of the prepared surfaces are explained with some outstanding case studies. These case studies are primarily concerned with their use as biomaterials and their application in medicine as well as with their use as thin films for optics and functional surfaces.

    Recombinant phage coated 1D Al2O3 nanostructures for controlling the adhesion and proliferation of endothelial cells
    (New York [u.a.] : Hindawi, 2015) Lee, Juseok; Jeon, Hojeong; Haidar, Ayman; Abdul-Khaliq, Hashim; Veith, Michael; Aktas, Cenk; Kim, Youngjun
    A novel synthesis of a nanostructured cell adhesive surface is investigated for future stent developments. One-dimensional (1D) Al2O3 nanostructures were prepared by chemical vapor deposition of a single source precursor. Afterwards, recombinant filamentous bacteriophages which display a short binding motif with a cell adhesive peptide (RGD) on p3 and p8 proteins were immobilized on these 1D Al2O3 nanostructures by a simple dip-coating process to study the cellular response of human endothelial EA hy.926. While the cell density decreased on as-deposited 1D Al2O3 nanostructures, we observed enhanced cell proliferation and cell-cell interaction on recombinant phage overcoated 1D Al2O3 nanostructures. The recombinant phage overcoating also supports an isotropic cell spreading rather than elongated cell morphology as we observed on as-deposited Al2O3 1D nanostructures.

    Synthesis of biphasic Al/Al2O3 nanostructures under microgravity and laser structuring on Al/Al2O3 surfaces for selective cell guidance
    (Saarbrücken : Universität des Saarlandes, 2013) Lee, Juseok
    The first part of this thesis is dealing with gravity effect on the synthesis of biphasic core/shell Al/Al2O3 composites. By chemical vapor deposition of the precursor [tBuOAlH2]2 at 400°C, only spherical nanoparticles were observed on the substrate surface. The formation of nanowires was observed at 600°C. It is a good agreement with our previous results on earth condition and there is no gravity impact on the chemical reaction. At increased gravity levels, the nanoparticles formed large clusters and the nanowires showed bundle formation while the nanowires at microgravity have predominantly linear structures. It is proposed that the chaotic nature of nanowires and cluster formation of nanoparticles were caused by a dominance of gravity over the thermal creep. In the second part the use of Al/Al2O3 nanowire layers for bio applications is considered. Contact cell guidance and alignment were studied to understand how cells recognize and respond to certain surface patterns. Linear micro channels were created on Al/Al2O3 layer by direct laser writing and laser interference patterning. Although surface topography was altered, the surface chemistry was always identical (Al2O3) due to the unique core/shell nature of Al/Al2O3 nanowires. Human osteoblast, normal human dermal fibroblast and neuronal cells were cultured and investigated. The results indicate that different cell types show diverse responses to the topography independent from the surface chemistry of the material.
