Fabrication of polyhedral particles from spherical colloids and their self-assembly into rotator phases
Hanumantha Rao Vutukuri, Arnout Imhof, Alfons van Blaaderen
Particle shape is a critical parameter that plays an important role in self-assembly, for example, in designing targeted complex structures with desired properties. In the last dec…
Determination of the positions and orientations of concentrated rod-like colloids from 3D microscopy data
T. H. Besseling, M. Hermes, A. Kuijk +5
Confocal microscopy in combination with real-space particle tracking has proven to be a powerful tool in scientific fields such as soft matter physics, materials science and cell b…
Colloidal analogues of charged and uncharged polymer chains with tunable stiffness
Hanumantha Rao Vutukuri, Ahmet Faik Demirörs, Bo Peng +3
Herein, we describe new methods to produce colloidal particle chains of three stiffness regimes that can be observed on a single-particle level, that is, on the level of the monome…
Effect of controlled corrugation on capillary condensation of colloid-polymer mixtures
Andrea Fortini, Matthias Schmidt
We investigate with Monte Carlo computer simulations the capillary phase behaviour of model colloid-polymer mixtures confined between a flat wall and a corrugated wall. The corruga…
Rotational averaging-out gravitational sedimentation of colloidal dispersions and phenomena
Djamel El Masri, Teun Vissers, Stephane Badaire +7
We report on the differences between colloidal systems left to evolve in the earth's gravitational field and the same systems for which a slow continuous rotation averaged out the…
Measuring Colloidal Forces from Particle Position Deviations inside an Optical Trap
Djamel El Masri, Peter van Oostrum, Frank Smallenburg +4
We measure interaction forces between pairs of charged PMMA colloidal particles suspended in a relatively low-polar medium (5 8) directly from the deviations o…
