2/2 Also, because I forgot to tweet this earlier, see Margaret, Daryl, and Matthew’s take on materials development using NP superlattices published earlier this year in J. Am. Chem. Soc.! doi.org/10.1021/jacs.1… Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) DMSE at MIT ACS Publications

Thank you!! Very fun couple of days returning to MIT to talk about what my lab is up to, and catch up with @DrRituRaman Ariel Furst Shao-Xiong Lennon Luo Rob Macfarlane Tara Suman Bose Daryl Yee and meet with so many students, postdocs, and faculty!

Seeing your own face on Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)'s frontpage is so weird... Not sure the kid who started as a chem major at Willamette University would believe it. Honored to be here and grateful to DMSE at MIT, Chad A. Mirkin, Harry Atwater, Ann Valentine, RHG, and the Macfarlanites. web.mit.edu/spotlight/desi…

(1/2) Two new manuscripts from recently graduated Macfarlanites: first is Leo’s paper on making DNA-programmed superlattices into functional optical devices in ACS Nano - “Self-Assembling Systems for Optical Out-of-Plane Coupling Devices” pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.102… DMSE at MIT Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)

(2/2) …and Margaret’s paper on stabilizing Nanocomposite superlattices in gels/solids, in The Journal of Chemical Physics - “Improving nanoparticle superlattice stability with deformable polymer gels” doi.org/10.1063/5.0130… nice work Drs Zornberg and Lee! DMSE at MIT Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)

The dynamic duo, reunited!@JonesMattRob Rob Macfarlane

Congrats to the 2023 PMSE Early Career Investigator Award recipients. #Polymer #researchers #RisingStars American Chemical Society

How can the mechanical properties of self-assembled nanocomposites be programmed? Fun collaboration b/w Rob Macfarlane, J. Andrade, and our team MIT MechE demonstrating the tunable mechanical properties of nanocomposite tectons (NCTs). 🔗: doi.org/10.1021/acs.na…

Recent paper from Carlos M. Portela and Macfarlane Lab measuring the nanomechanical properties of NCT lattices! Great work by Somu and Daryl Yee, and a big advance in NP superlattice processing and properties characterization. doi.org/10.1021/acs.na… DMSE at MIT Nano Letters Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)

Researchers MIT MechE and DMSE at MIT present a route for programmable mechanical properties of nanocomposite tectons. 💡 Shaping NCTs enables programming of their stiffness and strength. @CMPortela Rob Macfarlane DMSE at MIT Learn more in #NanoLetters 🔗 go.acs.org/5YE
