Feasibility of rational shape design of single-polymer micelle using spontaneous surface curvature
Brian Moths
Polymeric micelles are used in a variety of applications, with the micelle's shape often playing an important role. Consequently, a scheme to design micelles of arbitrary shape is…
Engineering single-polymer micelle shape using non-uniform spontaneous surface curvature
Brian Moths, Thomas Witten
Conventional micelles, composed of simple amphiphiles, exhibit only a few standard morphologies, each characterized by its mean surface curvature set by the amphiphiles. Here we de…
Criterion for noise-induced synchronization: application to colloidal alignment
Jonah A. Eaton, Brian Moths, Thomas A. Witten
Colloidal bodies of irregular shape rotate as they descend under gravity in solution. This rotational response provides a means of bringing a dispersion of identical bodies into a…
Orientational ordering of colloidal dispersions by application of time dependent external forces
Brian Moths, T. A. Witten
We present a method of organizing incoherent motion of a colloidal suspension to produce synchronized, coherent motion. This method exploits general features of rotational response…
Full alignment of colloidal objects by programmed forcing
Brian Moths, T. A. Witten
By analysis and simulation we demonstrate two methods for achieving complete orientational alignment of a set of identical, asymmetric colloidal objects dispersed randomly in a flu…
