Active Brownian particles in power-law viscoelastic media
David Santiago Quevedo, Monica Conte, Marjolein Dijkstra +1
Many active particles are embedded in environments that exhibit viscoelastic properties. An important class of such media lacks a single characteristic relaxation timescale when su…
From Knots to Crystals: Machine-Learned Potentials for Self-Assembling Topological Solitons in Liquid Crystals
Arunkumar Bupathy, Darian Hall, Ivan I. Smalyukh +3
Knotted fields in classical and quantum systems have long been recognized for their non-trivial topologies and particle-like behavior, but practical applications have been limited…
Surface Charge Relaxation Controls the Lifetime of Out-of-Equilibrium Colloidal Crystals
Laura Jansen, Thijs ter Rele, Marjolein Dijkstra
Interactions between charged colloidal particles are profoundly influenced by charge regulation and charge renormalization, rendering the effective potential highly sensitive to lo…
Machine learning many-body potentials for charged colloids in primitive 1:1 electrolytes
Thijs ter Rele, Gerardo Campos-Villalobos, René van Roij +1
Effective interactions between charged particles dispersed in an electrolyte are most commonly modeled using the Derjaguin-Landau-Verwey-Overbeek (DLVO) potential, where the ions i…
Shaping boundaries to control and transport topological defects in colloidal nematic liquid crystals
Gerardo Campos-Villalobos, André F. V. Matias, Ethan I. L. Jull +2
Anisotropic rod-like particles form liquid crystalline phases with varying degrees of orientational and translational order. When confined geometrically, these phases can give rise…
Disentangling the Effects of Curvature and Misorientation on the Shrinkage Behavior of Loop-Shaped Grain Boundaries
Fabrizio Camerin, Susana Marín-Aguilar, Tim Griffioen +4
The material properties of polycrystals are strongly affected by the evolution and coarsening of their internal grain structures. Yet, studying this process is challenging due to t…
