Dumbbell impurities in 2D crystals of repulsive colloidal spheres induce particle-bound dislocations
Vera Meester, Casper van der Wel, Ruben W. Verweij +2
Impurity-induced defects play a crucial role for the properties of crystals, but little is known about impurities with anisotropic shape. Here, we study how colloidal dumbbells dis…
Height Distribution and Orientation of Colloidal Dumbbells Near a Wall
Ruben W. Verweij, Stefania Ketzetzi, Joost de Graaf +1
Geometric confinement strongly influences the behavior of microparticles in liquid environments. However, to date, nonspherical particle behaviors close to confining boundaries, ev…
Diffusion-based height analysis reveals robust microswimmer-wall separation
Stefania Ketzetzi, Joost de Graaf, Daniela J. Kraft
Microswimmers typically move near walls, which can strongly influence their motion. However, direct experimental measurements of swimmer-wall separation remain elusive to date. Her…
Flexibility-induced effects in the Brownian motion of colloidal trimers
Ruben W. Verweij, Pepijn G. Moerman, Nathalie E. G. Ligthart +5
Shape changes resulting from segmental flexibility are ubiquitous in molecular and biological systems, and are expected to affect both the diffusive motion and (biological) functio…
