Overview
Dr. Laibinis's work focuses on the assembly of
systems whose performance is a direct result of surface effects. These
systems include chemical sensors, antifouling coatings, responsive interfaces,
and nanoparticle dispersions. A common element in these efforts is a
molecular perspective on the structure of species at surfaces as a way to
control interfacial behavior. Systems range in complexity from
single-atom coatings useful in chemical sensing to polymeric films employed to
retard biomolecule adsorption to arrays of immobilized DNA molecules for
genetic analyses or programmed multi-particle assembly.
