This in vitro study examined how an externally applied electric field influences the self-assembly of oppositely charged molecules in water into an ordered membrane. The authors report that electric fields changed the kinetics of membrane formation and altered membrane thickness, nanofiber growth orientation, and…

This engineering/materials study describes a template-free solution-phase method to synthesize well-aligned nickel nanochains under applied magnetic fields. The authors report that nanochain size and morphology can be tuned by reaction temperature and magnetic field conditions, and explain alignment via magnetic…
