Direct Assembly of Magnetic Janus Particles at a Droplet Interface

Qingguang Xie, Gary B. Davies, Jens Harting

Self-assembly of nanoparticles at fluid-fluid interfaces is a promising route to fabricate functional materials from the bottom-up. However, directing and controlling particles int…

Controlled Capillary Assembly of Magnetic Janus Particles at Fluid-Fluid Interfaces

Qingguang Xie, Gary B. Davies, Jens Harting

Capillary interactions can be used to direct assembly of particles adsorbed at fluid-fluid interfaces. Precisely controlling the magnitude and direction of capillary interactions t…

Selective Trapping of DNA using Glass Microcapillaries

Georg Rempfer, Sascha Ehrhardt, Nadanai Laohakunakorn +4

We show experimentally that a cheap glass microcapillary can accumulate λ-phage DNA at its tip and deliver the DNA into the capillary using a combination of electro-osmotic flow, p…

Limiting Spurious Flow in Simulations of Electrokinetic Phenomena

Georg Rempfer, Gary B. Davies, Christian Holm +1

Electrokinetic transport phenomena can strongly influence the behaviour of macromolecules and colloidal particles in solution, with applications in, e.g., DNA translocation through…
