Adsorption of soft particles at fluid interfaces
Robert W. Style, Lucio Isa, Eric R. Dufresne
Soft particles can be better emulsifiers than hard particles because they stretch at fluid interfaces. This deformation can increase adsorption energies by orders of magnitude rela…
Self-assembly of Active Colloidal Molecules with Dynamic Function
Rodrigo Soto, Ramin Golestanian
Catalytically active colloids maintain non-equilibrium conditions in which they produce and deplete chemicals and hence effectively act as sources and sinks of molecules. While ind…
Are Room Temperature Ionic Liquids Dilute Electrolytes?
Alpha A Lee, Dominic Vella, Susan Perkin +1
An important question in understanding the structure of ionic liquids is whether ions are truly "free" and mobile which would correspond to a concentrated ionic melt, or are rather…
Self-assembly and crystallisation of indented colloids at a planar wall
Douglas J. Ashton, Samantha J. Ivell, Roel P. A. Dullens +3
We report experimental and simulation studies of the structure of a monolayer of indented ("lock and key") colloids, on a planar surface. On adding a non-absorbing polymer with pre…
Rigidity Loss in Disordered Systems: Three Scenarios
Wouter G. Ellenbroek, Varda F. Hagh, Avishek Kumar +2
We reveal significant qualitative differences in the rigidity transition of three types of disordered network materials: randomly diluted spring networks, jammed sphere packings, a…
Indentation of ultrathin elastic films and the emergence of asymptotic isometry
Dominic Vella, Jiangshui Huang, Narayanan Menon +2
We study the indentation of a thin elastic film floating at the surface of a liquid. We focus on the onset of radial wrinkles at a threshold indentation depth and the evolution of…
