Capillary-induced interactions between colloids at an interface

Alvaro Dominguez, Martin Oettel, Siegfried Dietrich

Within a general framework we study the effective, deformation-induced interaction between two colloids trapped at a fluid interface. As an application, we consider the interface d…

Effective capillary interaction of spherical particles at fluid interfaces

M. Oettel, A. Dominguez, S. Dietrich

We present a detailed analysis of the effective force between two smooth spherical colloids floating at a fluid interface due to deformations of the interface. The results hold in…

Wall adsorption of a colloidal particle moving in a quiescent partially wetting fluid

Alvaro Dominguez, Siegfried Dietrich

In thermal equilibrium, a colloidal particle between two parallel plates immersed in a fluid which partially wets both the particle and the plates, is attracted by the walls. Howev…

Hard-Sphere Fluids in Contact with Curved Substrates

P. Bryk, R. Roth, K. R. Mecke +1

The properties of a hard-sphere fluid in contact with hard spherical and cylindrical walls are studied. Rosenfeld's density functional theory (DFT) is applied to determine the dens…

Flow of thin liquid films on chemically structured substrates

Markus Rauscher, S. Dietrich

Chemically patterned surfaces are of significant interest in the context of microfluidic applications. Miniaturization of such devices will eventually lead to structures on the nan…

Critical Casimir Forces in Colloidal Suspensions

F. Schlesener, A. Hanke, S. Dietrich

Some time ago, Fisher and de Gennes pointed out that long-ranged correlations in a fluid close to its critical point Tc cause distinct forces between immersed colloidal particles w…
