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…
Synthetic Quorum Sensing and Absorbing Phase Transitions in Colloidal Active Matter
Thibault Lefranc, Alberto Dinelli, Carla Fernández-Rico +3
Unlike biological active matter that constantly adapt to their environment, the motors of synthetic active particles are typically agnostic to their surroundings and merely operate…
Characterization and Optimization of Fluorescent Organosilica Colloids for 3D Confocal Microscopy Prepared Under 'Zero-Flow'
Ruth A. Crothers, Nicholas H. P. Orr, Berend van der Meer +2
We optimize and characterize the preparation of 3-trimethoxysilyl propylmethacrylate (TPM) colloidal suspensions for three-dimensional confocal microscopy. We revisit a simple synt…
From ultra-fast growth to avalanche growth in devitrifying glasses
Taiki Yanagishima, John Russo, Roel P A Dullens +1
During devitrification, pre-existing crystallites grow by adding particles to their surface via a process that is either thermally activated (diffusive mode) or happens without kin…
The effect of curvature on the diffusion of colloidal bananas
Justin-Aurel Ulbrich, Carla Fernandez-Rico, Brian Rost +4
Anisotropic colloidal particles exhibit complex dynamics which play a crucial role in their functionality, transport and phase behaviour. In this work, we investigate the two-dimen…
Attraction-enhanced emergence of friction in colloidal matter
Berend van der Meer, Taiki Yanagishima, Roel P. A. Dullens
How frictional effects emerge at the microscopic level in particulate materials remains a challenging question, particularly in systems subject to thermal fluctuations due to the t…
