Microscopic Picture of Cooperative Processes in Restructuring Gel Networks
Jader Colombo, Asaph Widmer-Cooper, Emanuela Del Gado
Colloidal gel networks are disordered elastic solids that can form even in extremely dilute particle suspensions. With interaction strengths comparable to the thermal energy, their…
Defect-Mediated Relaxation in the Random Tiling Phase of a Binary Mixture: Birth, Death and Mobility of an Atomic Zipper
Elisabeth Tondl, Malcolm Ramsay, Peter Harrowell +1
This paper describes the mechanism of defect-mediated relaxation in a dodecagonal square-triangle random tiling phase exhibited by a simulated binary mixture of soft discs in 2D. W…
Orientational Ordering of Passivating Ligands on CdS Nanorods in Solution Generates Strong Rod-Rod Interactions
Asaph Widmer-Cooper, Phillip Geissler
We present the first nearly atomistic molecular dynamics study of nanorod-nanorod association in explicit solvent, showing that inter-rod forces can be dominated by microscopic fac…
