title: Toroidal micelles of uniform size from diblock copolymers.
abstract: Uniform nanodonuts: Stable toroidal micelles that have a highly uniform size and shape spontaneously self-assemble from a selective THF/ethanol solvent mixture (see 3D AFM image). The donut-shaped micelles can be used as a template to grow gold nanoparticles, which form along the ring surface.
