Surface-Sensitive Raman Scattering by Transferable Nanoporous Plasmonic Membranes
Roman M. Wyss, Günter Kewes, Martin Frimmer +11
Raman spectroscopy is a powerful technique to characterize materials. It probes non-destructively chemical composition, crystallinity, defects, strain and coupling phenomena. Howev…
Ductile-to-brittle transition and yielding in soft amorphous materials: perspectives and open questions
Thibaut Divoux, Elisabeth Agoritsas, Stefano Aime +37
Soft amorphous materials are viscoelastic solids ubiquitously found around us, from clays and cementitious pastes to emulsions and physical gels encountered in food or biomedical e…
Comparative Analysis of Fluctuations in Viscoelastic Stress: A Comparison of the Temporary Network and Dumbbell models
Arturo Winters, Hans Christian Ãttinger, Jan Vermant
Traditionally, stress fluctuations in flowing and deformed materials are overlooked, with an obvious focus on average stresses in a continuum mechanical approximation. However, the…
Sculpting vesicles with active particles: Less is more
Hanumantha Rao Vutukuri, Masoud Hoore, Clara Abaurrea-Velasco +6
Biological cells are able to generate intricate structures and respond to external stimuli, sculpting their membrane from within. Simplified biomimetic systems can aid in understan…
Orthogonal Superposition Rheometry of soft core-shell microgels
Panagiota Bogri, Gabriele Pagani, Jan Vermant +2
The mechanisms of flow in suspensions of soft particles above the glass-transition volume fraction and in the jammed state were probed using Orthogonal Superposition Rheometry (OSR…
Unifying atoms and colloids near the glass transition through bond-order topology
Laura Stricker, Peter M. Derlet, Ahmet Faik Demirörs +2
In this combined experimental and simulation study, we utilize bond-order topology to quantitatively match particle volume fraction in mechanically uniformly compressed colloidal s…
