Frustration of the isotropic-columnar phase transition of colloidal hard platelets by a transient cubatic phase
Matthieu Marechal, Alessandro Patti, Matthew Dennison +1
Using simulations and theory, we show that the cubatic phase is metastable for three model hard platelets. The locally favored structures of perpendicular particle stacks in the fl…

Phase diagram and effective shape of semi-flexible colloidal rods and biopolymers
Matthew Dennison, Marjolein Dijkstra, Rene van Roij
We study suspensions of semi-flexible colloidal rods and biopolymers using an Onsager-type second-virial functional for a segmented-chain model. For suspensions of thin and thick f…
