Nanostructures in liquids. I. Possible experimental characterizations and applications

Abstract

A review with 30 refs. Several types of nanostructures in liq. phases are considered, in particular in org. solvents and electrolyte solns. First, neutron scattering expts. are shown to be valuable tools for studying the mol. architecture of these systems. Second, various types of cage-like structures are discussed as well as their possible applications in future technologies.
