Complex Self-Assembly from Simple Interaction Rules in Model Colloidal Mixtures

Santi Prestipino, Domenico Gazzillo, Gianmarco Munaò +1

Building structures with hierarchical order through the self-assembly of smaller blocks is not only a prerogative of nature, but also a strategy to design artificial materials with…

Probing the existence of phase transitions in one-dimensional fluids of penetrable particles

S. Prestipino, D. Gazzillo, N. Tasinato

Phase transitions in one-dimensional classical fluids are usually ruled out by making appeal to van Hove's theorem. A way to circumvent the conclusions of the theorem is to conside…

Effect of Polydispersity and Anisotropy in Colloidal and Protein Solutions: an Integral Equation Approach

Domenico Gazzillo, Achille Giacometti

Application of integral equation theory to complex fluids is reviewed, with particular emphasis to the effects of polydispersity and anisotropy on their structural and thermodynami…

Local orientational ordering in fluids of spherical molecules with dipolar-like anisotropic adhesion

Domenico Gazzillo, Riccardo Fantoni, Achille Giacometti

We discuss some interesting physical features stemming from our previous analytical study of a simple model of a fluid with dipolar-like interactions of very short range in additio…

Fluids of spherical molecules with dipolar-like nonuniform adhesion. An analytically solvable anisotropic model

Domenico Gazzillo, Riccardo Fantoni, Achille Giacometti

We consider an anisotropic version of Baxter's model of `sticky hard spheres', where a nonuniform adhesion is implemented by adding, to an isotropic surface attraction, an appropri…

Patchy sticky hard spheres: analytical study and Monte Carlo simulations

Riccardo Fantoni, Domenico Gazzillo, Achille Giacometti +2

We consider a fluid of hard spheres bearing one or two uniform circular adhesive patches, distributed so as not to overlap. Two spheres interact via a ``sticky'' Baxter potential i…
