Self-assembly of DNA-functionalized colloids
Panagiotis E. Theodorakis, Nikolaos G. Fytas, Gerhard Kahl +1
Colloidal particles grafted with single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) chains can self-assemble into a number of different crystalline structures, where hybridization of the ssDNA chains cre…
Non-equilibrium steady state of a driven levitated particle with feedback cooling
Jan Gieseler, Lukas Novotny, Clemens Moritz +1
Laser trapped nanoparticles have been recently used as model systems to study fundamental relations holding far from equilibrium. Here we study, both experimentally and theoretical…
Folding mechanism of a polymer chain with short-range attractions
Christian Leitold, Christoph Dellago
We investigate the crystallization of a single, flexible homopolymer chain using transition path sampling (TPS). The chain consists of N identical spherical monomers evolved accord…
Entropy and Kinetics of Point-Defects in Two-Dimensional Dipolar Crystals
Wolfgang Lechner, David Polster, Georg Maret +2
We study in experiment and with computer simulation the free energy and the kinetics of vacancy and interstitial defects in two-dimensional dipolar crystals. The defects appear in…
A string reaction coordinate for the folding of a polymer chain
Christian Leitold, Wolfgang Lechner, Christoph Dellago
We investigate the crystallization mechanism of a single, flexible homopolymer chain with short range attractions. For a sufficiently narrow attractive well, the system undergoes a…
