Electrostatic Interactions between Janus Particles
Joost de Graaf, Niels Boon, Marjolein Dijkstra +1
In this paper we study the electrostatic properties of `Janus' spheres with unequal charge densities on both hemispheres. We introduce a method to compare primitive-model Monte Car…
Predicting Patchy Particle Crystals: Variable Box Shape Simulations and Evolutionary Algorithms
Emanuela Bianchi, Guenther Doppelbauer, Laura Filion +2
We consider several patchy particle models that have been proposed in literature and we investigate their candidate crystal structures in a systematic way. We compare two different…
Effect of bond length fluctuations on crystal nucleation of hard bead chains
Ran Ni, Marjolein Dijkstra
We study the spontaneous nucleation and crystallization of linear and cyclic chains of flexibly connected hard spheres using extensive molecular dynamics simulations. To this end,…
