Competing thermodynamic and dynamic factors select molecular assemblies on a gold surface
Thomas K. Haxton, Hui Zhou, Isaac Tamblyn +5
Controlling the self-assembly of surface-adsorbed molecules into nanostructures requires understanding physical mechanisms that act across multiple length and time scales. By combi…
Common physical framework explains phase behavior and dynamics of atomic, molecular and polymeric network-formers
Stephen Whitelam, Isaac Tamblyn, Thomas K. Haxton +4
We show that the self-assembly of a diverse collection of building blocks can be understood within a common physical framework. These building blocks, which form periodic honeycomb…
Self-assembly at a nonequilibrium critical point
Stephen Whitelam, Lester O. Hedges, Jeremy D. Schmit
We use analytic theory and computer simulation to study patterns formed during the growth of two-component assemblies in 2D and 3D. We show that these patterns undergo a nonequilib…
Selective nucleation in porous media
Lester O. Hedges, Stephen Whitelam
Geometrical arguments suggest that pore-mediated nucleation happens in general in a two-step fashion, the first step being nucleation within the pore, the second being nucleation f…
The Quantum Energy Density: Improved Efficiency for Quantum Monte Carlo
Jaron T. Krogel, Min Yu, Jeongnim Kim +1
We establish a physically meaningful representation of a quantum energy density for use in Quantum Monte Carlo calculations. The energy density operator, defined in terms of Hamilt…
