A thermodynamic approach to adhesion and deformation of DNA-bound droplets
Nicolas Judd, Angus McMullen, Sascha Hilgenfeldt +1
Here we derive and experimentally test a free energy functional that captures the adhesion of DNA-coated emulsion droplets. Generalizing previous approaches, the theory combines im…
Measuring Colloidomer Hydrodynamics with Holographic Video Microscopy
Jatin Abacousnac, Jasna Brujic, David G. Grier
In-line holographic video microscopy records a wealth of information about the microscopic structure and dynamics of colloidal materials. Powerful analytical techniques are availab…
A Coarse-Grained Simulation Model for Self-Assembly of Liquid Droplets Featuring Explicit Mobile Binders
Gaurav Mitra, Chuan Chang, Angus McMullen +3
Colloidal particles with mobile binding molecules constitute a powerful platform for probing the physics of self-assembly. Binding molecules are free to diffuse and rearrange on th…
Self-assembly Through Programmable Folding
Angus McMullen, Maitane Muñoz Basagoiti, Zorana Zeravcic +1
At the cutting edge of materials science, matter is designed to self-organize into structures that perform a wide range of functions. The past two decades have witnessed major inno…
DNA self-organization controls valence in programmable colloid design
Angus McMullen, Sascha Hilgenfeldt, Jasna Brujic
Just like atoms combine into molecules, colloids can self-organize into predetermined structures according to a set of design principles. Controlling valence -- the number of inter…
Colloidomers: freely-jointed polymers made of droplets
Angus McMullen, Miranda Holmes-Cerfon, Francesco Sciortino +2
An important goal of self-assembly is to achieve a preprogrammed structure with high fidelity. Here, we control the valence of DNA-functionalized emulsions to make linear and branc…
