Machine learning-assisted design of material properties
Sanket Kadulkar, Zachary M. Sherman, Venkat Ganesan +1
Designing functional materials requires a deep search through multidimensional spaces for system parameters that yield desirable material properties. For cases where conventional p…
Effects of linker flexibility on phase behavior and structure of linked colloidal gels
Michael P. Howard, Zachary M. Sherman, Adithya N Sreenivasan +4
Colloidal nanocrystal gels can be assembled using a difunctional "linker" molecule to mediate bonding between nanocrystals. The conditions for gelation and the structure of the gel…
Wertheim's thermodynamic perturbation theory with double-bond association and its application to colloid-linker mixtures
Michael P. Howard, Zachary M. Sherman, Delia J. Milliron +1
We extend Wertheim's thermodynamic perturbation theory to derive the association free energy of a multicomponent mixture for which double bonds can form between any two pairs of th…
Inverse methods for design of soft materials
Zachary M. Sherman, Michael P. Howard, Beth A. Lindquist +2
Functional soft materials, comprising colloidal and molecular building blocks that self-organize into complex structures as a result of their tunable interactions, enable a wide ar…
Universal Gelation of Metal Oxide Nanocrystals via Depletion Attractions
Camila A. Saez Cabezas, Zachary M. Sherman, Michael P. Howard +6
Nanocrystal gelation provides a powerful framework to translate nanoscale properties into bulk materials and to engineer emergent properties through the assembled microstructure. H…
