The role of topological defects in the two-stage melting and elastic behavior of active Brownian particles
Siddharth Paliwal, Marjolein Dijkstra
We find that crystalline states of repulsive active Brownian particles at high activity melt into a hexatic state but this transition is not driven by an unbinding of bound disloca…
Unsupervised learning for local structure detection in colloidal systems
Emanuele Boattini, Marjolein Dijkstra, Laura Filion
We introduce a simple, fast, and easy to implement unsupervised learning algorithm for detecting different local environments on a single-particle level in colloidal systems. In th…
Softness suppresses fivefold symmetry and enhances crystallization of binary Laves phases in nearly hard spheres
Tonnishtha Dasgupta, Gabriele M. Coli, Marjolein Dijkstra
Colloidal crystals with a diamond and pyrochlore structure display wide photonic band gaps at low refractive index contrasts. However, these low-coordinated and open structures are…
Inverse design of charged colloidal particle interactions for self assembly into specified crystal structures
Rajneesh Kumar, Gabriele M. Coli, Marjolein Dijkstra +1
We study the inverse problem of tuning interaction parameters between charged colloidal particles interacting with a hard-core repulsive Yukawa potential, so that they assemble int…
Interparticle torques suppress motility-induced phase separation for rodlike particles
Robin van Damme, Jeroen Rodenburg, René van Roij +1
To study the role of torque in motility-induced phase separation (MIPS), we simulate a system of self-propelled particles whose shape varies smoothly from isotropic (disks/spheres)…
