Understanding quorum sensing self-organization: Clustering and defect-induced ordering of diffusing particles

Feifei Liu, Vyacheslav R. Misko, Yunyun Li +1

Quorum sensing (QS) is known in biology as a form of intercellular communication mediated by signaling molecules called autoinducers. The QS protocol governs the transition from in…

Selecting active matter according to motility in an acoustofluidic setup: Self-propelled particles and sperm cells

V. R. Misko, L. Baraban, D. Makarov +7

Active systems -- including sperm cells, living organisms like bacteria, fish, birds, or active soft matter systems like synthetic ''microswimmers'' -- are characterized by motilit…

Electrokinetic Janus micromotors moving on topographically flat chemical patterns

Tao Huang, Vyacheslav R. Misko, Anja Caspari +7

Ionic and molecular selectivity is considered unique for the nanoscale and not realizable in microfluidics. This is due to the scale-matching problem -- a difficulty to match the d…

Inverse Solidification Induced by Active Janus Particles

Tao Huang, Vyacheslav R. Misko, Sophie Gobeil +7

Crystals melt when thermal excitations or the concentration of defects in the lattice is sufficiently high. Upon melting, the crystalline long-range order vanishes, turning the sol…

Enhanced motility in a binary mixture of active nano/microswimmers

Debajyoti Debnath, Pulak K. Ghosh, Vyacheslav R. Misko +3

It is often desirable to enhance the motility of active nano- or microscale swimmers such as, e.g., self-propelled Janus particles as agents of chemical reactions or weak sperm cel…

Ultradense Tailored Vortex Pinning Arrays in Superconducting YBaCuO Thin Films Created by Focused He Ion Beam Irradiation for Fluxonics Applications

Bernd Aichner, Benedikt Müller, Max Karrer +9

Magnetic fields penetrate a type-II superconductor as magnetic flux quanta, called vortices. In a clean superconductor they arrange in a hexagonal lattice, while by adding periodic…
