Self-assembly of core-corona particles confined in a circular box

Erik R. Fonseca, Carlos I. Mendoza

Using Monte Carlo simulations, we study the assembly of colloidal particles interacting via isotropic core-corona potentials in two dimensions and confined in a circular box. We ex…

Non-additive simple potentials for pre-programmed self-assembly

Daniel Salgado-Blanco, Carlos I. Mendoza

A major goal in nanoscience and nanotechnology is the self-assembly of any desired complex structure with a system of particles interacting through simple potentials. To achieve th…

Mechanical instability at finite temperature

Xiaoming Mao, Anton Souslov, Carlos I. Mendoza +1

Many physical systems including lattices near structural phase transitions, glasses, jammed solids, and bio-polymer gels have coordination numbers that place them at the edge of me…

Model for the shear viscosity of suspensions of star polymers and other soft particles

Carlos I. Mendoza

We propose a model to describe the concentration dependence of the viscosity of soft particles. We incorporate in a very simple way the softness of the particles into expressions o…

Enhanced shear separation for chiral magnetic colloidal aggregates

C. I. Mendoza, C. M. Marques, F. Thalmann

We study the designing principles of the simplest colloidal propeller, an architecture built from four identical spheres that can couple translation with rotation to produce contro…

The rheology of concentrated suspensions of arbitrarily-shaped particles

I. Santamaria-Holek, Carlos I. Mendoza

We propose an improved effective-medium theory to obtain the concentration dependence of the viscosity of particle suspensions at arbitrary volume fractions. Our methodology can be…
