Flexibility-induced effects in the Brownian motion of colloidal trimers

Ruben W. Verweij, Pepijn G. Moerman, Nathalie E. G. Ligthart +5

Shape changes resulting from segmental flexibility are ubiquitous in molecular and biological systems, and are expected to affect both the diffusive motion and (biological) functio…

Measuring Colloidal Forces from Particle Position Deviations inside an Optical Trap

Djamel El Masri, Peter van Oostrum, Frank Smallenburg +4

We measure interaction forces between pairs of charged PMMA colloidal particles suspended in a relatively low-polar medium (5 8) directly from the deviations o…

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…

Direct observation of hydrodynamic instabilities in driven non-uniform colloidal dispersions

Adam Wysocki, C. Patrick Royall, Roland G. Winkler +4

A Rayleigh-Taylor-like instability of a dense colloidal layer under gravity in a capillary of microfluidic dimensions is considered. We access all relevant lengthscales with partic…

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…

Coherent vibrations of submicron spherical gold shells in a photonic crystal

D. A. Mazurenko, X. Shan, J. C. P. Stiefelhagen +3

Coherent acoustic radial oscillations of thin spherical gold shells of submicron diameter excited by an ultrashort optical pulse are observed in the form of pronounced modulations…
