Theoretical description of a DNA-linked nanoparticle self-assembly
Chia Wei Hsu, Francesco Sciortino, Francis W. Starr
Nanoparticles tethered with DNA strands are promising building blocks for bottom-up nanotechnology, and a theoretical understanding is important for future development. Here we bui…
Interpenetration as a Mechanism for Liquid-Liquid Phase Transitions
Chia Wei Hsu, Francis W. Starr
We study simple lattice systems to demonstrate the influence of interpenetrating bond networks on phase behavior. We promote interpenetration by using a Hamiltonian with a weakly r…
Hierarchies of networked phases induced by multiple liquid-liquid critical points
Chia Wei Hsu, Julio Largo, Francesco Sciortino +1
Functionalization of nanoparticles or colloids is increasingly being used to develop customizable "atoms". Functionalization by attaching single strands of DNA allows for direct co…
