Quasi-crystalline order in vibrated granular matter
Andrea Plati, Raphael Maire, Etienne Fayen +4
Quasi-crystals are aperiodic structures that present crystallographic properties which are not compatible with that of a single unit cell. Their revolutionary discovery in a metall…

Self-assembly of dodecagonal and octagonal quasicrystals in hard spheres on a plane
Etienne Fayen, Marianne Impéror-Clerc, Laura Filion +2
Quasicrystals are fascinating structures, characterized by strong positional order but lacking the periodicity of a crystal. In colloidal systems, quasicrystals are typically predi…

Infinite-pressure phase diagram of binary mixtures of (non)additive hard disks
Etienne Fayen, Anuradha Jagannathan, Giuseppe Foffi +1
One versatile route to the creation of two-dimensional crystal structures on the nanometer to micrometer scale is the self-assembly of colloidal particles at an interface. Here, we…
