Nature oversees a vast array of amazing shapes formed by organisms such as plants, fungi and animals. Some of these manifest as intricate patterns in structures like coral and the nests of insects and birds. Associate Professor Ayae Sugawara-Narutaki, from the Department of Materials Chemistry at Nagoya University, Japan has a particular interest in these patterns. Sugawara-Narutaki's team focuses on research inspired by these self-organised nanostructures to develop nanomaterials for a variety of health-related applications. The ability of these nanomaterials to self-assemble and self-organise in a liquid phase has attracted a great deal of interest from materials scientists the world over.

ABSTRACTThe addition of high refractive index (RI) inorganic nanoparticles (NPs) to LED encapsulation materials can lead to higher light extraction efficiency. In addition, the NPs can be carriers for additional functionality such as color conversion. Using a simple “grafting-to” approach, bimodal polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) brushes were grafted onto high-RI ZrO2 NPs. Subsequently, an organic phosphor, 6-[fluorescein-5(6)-carboxamido]hexanoic acid (FCHA), was attached onto the PDMS-grafted ZrO2 NPs via a facile ligand exchange process. The bimodal polymer brush design enables homogenous dispersion of the surface functionalized NPs within the silicone matrix. The functionalized NPs with ∼53 wt% ZrO2 core have a ∼0.08 higher RI than neat silicone, and the NP-filled silicone nanocomposites exhibit a transparency of ∼ 90% in the 550-800 nm wavelength range. In addition, the nanocomposites could be excited at a wavelength around 455 nm by a blue LED and undergo secondary yellow emission at around 571 nm. It is expected that the prepared nanocomposites can be used as high-efficiency, non-scattering, color-tuned materials for advanced LED encapsulation.
