Entropic Trapping of Hard Spheres in Spherical Confinement
Praveen K. Bommineni, Junwei Wang, Nicolas Vogel +1
Monodisperse spherical colloidal particles confined within emulsion droplets can crystallize into icosahedral clusters. Experimentally it was observed that a few large colloidal pa…
Geometric Frustration Directs the Self-Assembly of Nanoparticles with Crystallized Ligand Bundles
Federico Tomazic, Aswathy Muttathukattil, Afshin Nabiyan +2
Polymer-grafted nanoparticles are versatile building blocks that self-assemble into a rich diversity of mesostructures. Coarse-grained molecular simulations have commonly accompani…
Breakdown of Magic Numbers in Spherical Confinement
Junwei Wang, Jonathan Martín-González, Lukas Römling +6
Magic numbers in finite particle systems correspond to specific system sizes that allow configurations with low free energy, often exhibiting closed surface shells to maximize the…
Kinetically Trapped Nanocrystals with Symmetry-Preserving Shapes
Carlos L. Bassani, Michael Engel
The shape of nanocrystals is crucial in determining their surface area, reactivity, optical properties, mechanical strength, and self-assembly behavior. Traditionally, shape contro…
