Anisotropic self-assembly of soft particles mediated by elliptically polarized AC fields
Carlos Eduardo Estanislau, Thiago Colla, Christos N. Likos
Attractive dipole interactions can be induced between equally charged soft nanoparticles under the influence of AC electric fields. The combination of charge repulsion and dipole a…

Osmotically-induced rupture of viral capsids
Felipe B. M. Aguiar, Thiago Colla
A simple model is proposed aimed to investigate how the amount of dissociated ions influences the mechanical stability of viral capsids. After an osmotic and mechanical equilibrium…

Cavity correlations and the onset of charge ordering at charged interfaces: a modified Poisson-Fermi approach
Otávio David Braga, Thiago Colla
Charge layering in the close vicinity of charged interfaces is a well known effect, extensively reported in both experiments and simulations of Room Temperature Ionic Liquids (RTIL…
