Crowd Control in Plazas Constrained to Social Distancing
Álvaro González García, James L. Martín R., Alessio Caciagli
We present a simple and versatile method for calculating the maximum capacity of public spaces constrained to social distancing, following the recommended measures of the WHO due t…
Controlled Optofluidic Crystallization of Colloids Tethered at Interfaces
Alessio Caciagli, Rajesh Singh, Darshana Joshi +2
We report experiments that show rapid crystallization of colloids tethered to an oil-water interface in response to laser illumination. This light-induced transition is due to a co…
On the Role of Flexibility in Linker-Mediated DNA Hydrogels
Iliya D. Stoev, Tianyang Cao, Alessio Caciagli +7
Three-dimensional DNA networks, composed of tri- or higher valent nanostars with sticky, single-stranded DNA overhangs, have been previously studied in the context of designing the…
Tunable colloidal photonic crystals
Talha Erdem, Mykolas Zupkauskas, Thomas ONeill +5
Spherical colloids arranged in a crystalline order are known to produce structural colors. The intensity and brilliance of such photonic crystals require high size-monodispersity o…
Inducing transparency in the films of highly scattering particles
Talha Erdem, Lan Yang, Peicheng Xu +7
Today colloids are employed in various products from creams and coatings to electronics. The ability to control their chemical, optical, or electronic features by controlling their…
Optical trapping of colloids at a liquid-liquid interface
Alessio Caciagli, Darshana Joshi, Jurij Kotar +1
We demonstrate the realization of (laterally) optically bounded colloidal structures on a liquid-liquid interface of an emulsion droplet. We use DNA tethers to graft the particles…
