Out-of-equilibrium processes in suspensions of oppositely charged colloids: liquid-to-crystal nucleation and gel formation
Eduardo Sanz, Chantal Valeriani, Teun Vissers +5
We study the kinetics of the liquid-to-crystal transformation and of gel formation in colloidal suspensions of oppositely charged particles. We analyse, by means of both computer s…

Lane formation in driven colloidal mixtures: is it continuous or discontinuous?
Martin Rex, C. Patrick Royall, Alfons van Blaaderen +1
Binary mixtures of oppositely charged colloids driven by an electric field are shown to exhibit a nonequilibrium transition towards lane formation if the driving force is increased…

Anisotropic colloids through non-trivial buckling
Catherine Quilliet, Carmen Zoldesi, Christophe Riera +2
We present a study on buckling of colloidal particles, including experimental, theoretical and numerical developments. Oil-filled thin shells prepared by emulsion templating show b…
