A Design Path for Hierarchical Self-Assembly of Patchy Colloids

Erik Edlund, Oskar Lindgren, Martin Nilsson Jacobi

Patchy colloids are promising candidates for building blocks in directed self-assembly. To be successful the surface patterns need to both be simple enough to be synthesized, while…

Using the uncertainty principle to design simple interactions for targeted self-assembly

Erik Edlund, Oskar Lindgren, Martin Nilsson Jacobi

We present a method that systematically simplifies isotropic interactions designed for targeted self-assembly. The uncertainty principle is used to show that an optimal simplificat…

Chiral surfaces self-assembling in one-component systems with isotropic interactions

Erik Edlund, Oskar Lindgren, Martin Nilsson Jacobi

We show that chiral symmetry can be broken spontaneously in one-component systems with isotropic interactions, i.e. many-particle systems having maximal a priori symmetry. This is…

Designing isotropic interactions for self-assembly of complex lattices

Erik Edlund, Oskar Lindgren, Martin Nilsson Jacobi

We present a direct method for solving the inverse problem of designing isotropic potentials that cause self-assembly into target lattices. Each potential is constructed by matchin…

Novel self-assembled morphologies from isotropic interactions

Erik Edlund, Oskar Lindgren, Martin Nilsson Jacobi

We present results from particle simulations with isotropic medium range interactions in two dimensions. At low temperature novel types of aggregated structures appear. We show tha…
