Using Depletion to Control Colloidal Crystal Assemblies of Hard Cuboctahedra
Andrew S. Karas, Jens Glaser, Sharon C. Glotzer
Depletion interactions arise from entropic forces, and their ability to induce aggregation and even ordering of colloidal particles through self-assembly is well established, espec…

A parallel algorithm for implicit depletant simulations
Jens Glaser, Andrew S. Karas, Sharon C. Glotzer
We present an algorithm to simulate the many-body depletion interaction between anisotropic colloids in an implicit way, integrating out the degrees of freedom of the depletants, w…

Controlling Chirality of Entropic Crystals
Pablo F. Damasceno, Andrew S. Karas, Benjamin A. Schultz +2
Colloidal crystal structures with complexity and diversity rivaling atomic and molecular crystals have been predicted and obtained for hard particles by entropy maximization. Howev…
