Crossover Behavior in the Packing and Assembly of Multivalent Lock-and-Key Colloids
N. Khalid Ahmed, Greg van Anders, Elizabeth R. Chen +1
Emergent behaviors occur in a vast array of systems across many scales, and are of fundamental physical importance because of the intrinsic difficulty in linking microscopic system…
Understanding shape entropy through local dense packing
Greg van Anders, Daphne Klotsa, N. Khalid Ahmed +2
Entropy drives the phase behavior of colloids ranging from dense suspensions of hard spheres or rods to dilute suspensions of hard spheres and depletants. Entropic ordering of anis…
Entropically Patchy Particles: Engineering Valence through Shape Entropy
Greg van Anders, N. Khalid Ahmed, Ross Smith +2
Patchy particles are a popular paradigm for the design and synthesis of nanoparticles and colloids for self-assembly. In "traditional" patchy particles, anisotropic interactions ar…
A Lattice Boltzmann study of flow along patterned surfaces and through channels with alternating slip length
Nayaz Khalid Ahmed, Martin Hecht
In microfluidics, varying wetting properties, expressed in terms of the local slip length, can be used to influence the flow of a liquid through a device. We study flow past surfac…
