Density-induced reentrant melting of colloidal Wigner crystals
Jeffrey Everts, Niels Boon, René van Roij
Electrostatic repulsions can drive crystallization in many-particle systems. For charged colloidal systems, the phase boundaries as well as crystal structure are highly tunable by…
Phase diagrams of charged colloidal rods: can a uniaxial charge distribution break chiral symmetry?
Tara Drwenski, Simone Dussi, Michiel Hermes +2
We construct phase diagrams for charged rodlike colloids within the second-virial approximation as a function of rod concentration, salt concentration, and colloidal charge. Beside…
Analysis of electrolyte transport through charged nanopores
P. B. Peters, R. van Roij, M. Z. Bazant +1
We revisit the classical problem of flow of electrolyte solutions through charged capillary nanopores or nanotubes as described by the capillary pore model (also called "space char…
Self-propulsion mechanism of active Janus particles in near-critical binary mixtures
Sela Samin, René van Roij
Gold-capped Janus particles immersed in a near-critical binary mixture can be propelled using illumination. We employ a non-isothermal diffuse interface approach to investigate the…
