Using Particle Shape to Control Defects in Colloidal Crystals on Spherical Interfaces
Gabrielle N. Jones, Philipp W. A. Schönhöfer, Sharon C. Glotzer
Spherical particles confined to a sphere surface cannot pack densely into a hexagonal lattice without defects. In this study, we use hard particle Monte Carlo simulations to determ…

Collective behavior of "flexicles"
Philipp W. A. Schönhöfer, Sharon C. Glotzer
In recent years the functionality of synthetic active microparticles has edged even closer to that of their biological counterparts. However, we still lack the understanding needed…
