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…
Building blocks of non-Euclidean ribbons: Size-controlled self-assembly via discrete, frustrated particles
Douglas M. Hall, Mark J. Stevens, Gregory M. Grason
Geometric frustration offers a pathway to soft matter self-assembly with controllable finite sizes. While the understanding of frustration in soft matter assembly derives almost ex…
Ordering Nanoparticles with Polymer Brushes
Shengfeng Cheng, Mark J. Stevens, Gary S. Grest
Ordering nanoparticles into a desired super-structure is often crucial for their technological applications. We use molecular dynamics simulations to study the assembly of nanopart…
Self-assembly of Chiral Tubules
Shengfeng Cheng, Mark J. Stevens
The efficient and controlled assembly of complex structures from macromolecular building blocks is a critical open question in both biological systems and nanoscience. Using molecu…
Self-assembly of artificial microtubules
Shengfeng Cheng, Ankush Aggarwal, Mark J. Stevens
Understanding the complex self-assembly of biomacromolecules is a major outstanding question. Microtubules are one example of a biopolymer that possesses characteristics quite dist…
Effect of Mono- and Multivalent Salts on Angle-dependent Attractions between Charged Rods
Kun-Chun Lee, Itamar Borukhov, William M. Gelbart +2
Using molecular dynamics simulations we examine the effective interactions between two like-charged rods as a function of angle and separation. In particular, we determine how the…
