Self-limited stacking of non-Euclidean colloidal shells: From saddles to caps
Kyle T. Sullivan, Mark J. Stevens, Gregory M. Grason
The presence of geometric frustration in self-assemblies, stemming from a shape misfit between identical subunits, can lead to the spontaneous formation of finite-sized structures…

Self-limiting stacks of curvature-frustrated colloidal plates: Roles of intra-particle versus inter-particle deformations
Kyle T. Sullivan, Ryan C. Hayward, Gregory M. Grason
In geometrically frustrated assemblies local inter-subunit misfits propagate to intra-assembly strain gradients, giving rise to anomalous self-limiting assembly thermodynamics. Her…
