Packing of soft asymmetric dumbbells
Andela Šarić, Behnaz Bozorgui, Angelo Cacciuto
We use numerical simulations to study the phase behavior of a system of purely repulsive soft dumbbells as a function of size ratio of the two components and their relative degree…
Particle self-assembly on soft elastic shells
Andela Šarić, Angelo Cacciuto
We use numerical simulations to show how noninteracting hard particles binding to a deformable elastic shell may self-assemble into a variety of linear patterns. This is a result o…
Exploiting classical nucleation theory for reverse self-assembly
William L. Miller, Angelo Cacciuto
In this paper we introduce a new method to design interparticle interactions to target arbitrary crystal structures via the process of self-assembly. We show that it is possible to…
On the phase behavior of hard aspherical particles
William L. Miller, Angelo Cacciuto
We use numerical simulations to understand how random deviations from the ideal spherical shape affect the ability of hard particles to form fcc crystalline structures. Using a sys…
End Grafted Polymer Nanoparticles in a Polymeric Matrix: Effect of Coverage and Curvature
Joshua Kalb, Douglas Dukes, Sanat K. Kumar +2
It has recently been proposed that the miscibility of nanoparticles with a polymer matrix can be controlled by grafting polymer chains to the nanoparticle surface. As a first step…
