One project, in the area of Interfacial Engineering, is the equilibrium and dynamic adsorption and dynamic surface tension (DST) of aqueous surfactants, lipids, and proteins. For air/aqueous interfaces the main focus is the understanding and control of low DSTs. Potential applications include developing new lung surfactant formulations for treatment of the Respiratory Distress Syndrome, or RDS, of premature infants or the Adult or Acute RDS. Such effective lipid formulations should be designed to produce low DSTs, and also displace serum proteins such as albumin or fibrinogen, which can cause lung disease by interfering with, or inhibiting the normal function of natural lung surfactant. We use ellipsometry, infrared spectroscopy, and tensiometry in probing the surface densities and conformations of adsorbed layers.

Ultra-fine metal particles with diameters in the nanometer size range often exhibit unique size-dependent electronic and physical properties. Nanostructured materials produced by consolidation of nanoscale metal particles or by dispersing nanoscale metal particles on or in various solid supports also exhibit unique properties. The key to taking advantage of these enhanced properties are techniques for synthesizing the ultra-fine metal particles of interest at high production rates and low cost. We have developed several aerosol based methods for nanoparticle synthesis and are involved in extending our understanding of these processes by theoretical modeling and experimental scale up.

Professor Corti's research focuses on understanding the thermophysical and kinetic properties of a variety of soft condensed-phase systems, including liquids and colloidal dispersions. Theoretical and simulation techniques are utilized to generate important insights into how the interparticle forces influence the behavior of such systems over a broad range of time and length scales.
