=Self-assembly in molecular systems=
 * Self-assembly
 * Intermolecular forces
 * Coulombic interactions / electrostatics / charge–charge interactions
 * van der Waals forces – summarised by the Hamaker constant
 * charge-dipole
 * dipole–dipole (Keesom interactions)
 * charge –non-polar (induced dipole)
 * dipole –non-polar (induced dipole / Debye interaction)
 * non-polar (instantaneous dipole / London dispersion forces)
 * magnitude of induced dipoles depend on polarizability
 * Hydrophobic effect
 * Phospholipid
 * Self-assembled monolayers
 * Surfactants
 * Micelle
 * Aggregation number
 * Critical micelle concentration (monomers → micelles phase transition)
 * Other phase transitions:
 * → cylinders
 * → flexible bilayers / vesicles / liposomes
 * → sheets (lamellar phases / planar bilayers)
 * → inverted cylinders
 * → inverted micelles


 * Lipid bilayer
 * Interaction free energy
 * Thermodynamic spontaneity
 * Amphiphilic molecules
