Role of the interplay between spinodal decomposition and crystal growth in the morphological evolution of crystalline bulk heterojunctions
Olivier J. J. Ronsin, Jens Harting
The stability of organic solar cells is strongly affected by the morphology of the photoactive layers, whose separated crystalline and/or amorphous phases are kinetically quenched…
Self-Similar Liquid Lens Coalescence
Michiel A. Hack, Walter Tewes, Qingguang Xie +4
A basic feature of liquid drops is that they can merge upon contact to form a larger drop. In spite of its importance to various applications, drop coalescence on pre-wetted substr…
Numerical simulations of self-diffusiophoretic colloids at fluid interfaces
T. Peter, P. Malgaretti, N. Rivas +3
The dynamics of active colloids is very sensitive to the presence of boundaries and interfaces which therefore can be used to control their motion. Here we analyze the dynamics of…
Inertial migration of neutrally-buoyant particles in superhydrophobic channels
Tatiana V. Nizkaya, Evgeny S. Asmolov, Jens Harting +1
At finite Reynolds numbers particles migrate across flow streamlines to their equilibrium positions in microchannels. Such a migration is attributed to an inertial lift force, and…
Strict equivalence between Maxwell-Stefan and fast-mode theory for multicomponent polymer mixtures
Olivier J. J. Ronsin, Jens Harting
The applicability of theories describing the kinetic evolution of fluid mixtures depends on the underlying physical assumptions. The Maxwell-Stefan equations, widely used for misci…
Capillary assemblies in a rotating magnetic field
Galien Grosjean, Maxime Hubert, Ylona Collard +4
Small objects floating on a fluid have a tendency to aggregate due to capillary forces. This effect has been used, with the help of a magnetic induction field, to assemble submilli…
Mesoscale simulation of soft particles with tunable contact angle in multi-component fluids
Maarten Wouters, Othmane Aouane, Timm Krueger +1
Soft particles at fluid interfaces play an important role in many aspects of our daily life, such as the food industry, paints and coatings, and medical applications. Analytical me…
Insights from Molecular Dynamics Simulations on Structural Organization and Diffusive Dynamics of an Ionic Liquid at Solid and Vacuum Interfaces
Natasa Vucemilovic-Alagic, Radha D. Banhatti, Robert Stepic +7
Hypothesis A prototypical modelling approach is required for a full characterisation of the static and equilibrium dynamical properties of confined ionic liquids (ILs), in order to…
Optimal motion of triangular magnetocapillary swimmers
Alexander Sukhov, Sebastian Ziegler, Qingguang Xie +7
A system of ferromagnetic particles trapped at a liquid-liquid interface and subjected to a set of magnetic fields (magnetocapillary swimmers) is studied numerically using a hybrid…
