Characterization and Optimization of Fluorescent Organosilica Colloids for 3D Confocal Microscopy Prepared Under 'Zero-Flow'
Ruth A. Crothers, Nicholas H. P. Orr, Berend van der Meer +2
We optimize and characterize the preparation of 3-trimethoxysilyl propylmethacrylate (TPM) colloidal suspensions for three-dimensional confocal microscopy. We revisit a simple synt…
Attraction-enhanced emergence of friction in colloidal matter
Berend van der Meer, Taiki Yanagishima, Roel P. A. Dullens
How frictional effects emerge at the microscopic level in particulate materials remains a challenging question, particularly in systems subject to thermal fluctuations due to the t…
Predicting the phase behavior of mixtures of active spherical particles
Berend van der Meer, Vasileios Prymidis, Marjolein Dijkstra +1
An important question in the field of active matter is whether or not it is possible to predict the phase behavior of these systems. Here, we study the phase coexistence of binary…
Fabricating large two-dimensional single colloidal crystals by doping with active particles
B. van der Meer, L. Filion, M. Dijkstra
Using simulations we explore the behaviour of two-dimensional colloidal (poly)crystals doped with active particles. We show that these active dopants can provide an elegant new rou…
