Boundary homogenization for trapping by patchy surfaces.
We analyze trapping of diffusing particles by nonoverlapping partially absorbing disks randomly located on a reflecting surface, the problem that arises in many branches of chemical and biological physics. We approach the problem by replacing the heterogeneous boundary condition on the patchy surface by the homogenized partially absorbing boundary condition, which is uniform over the surface. T...
متن کاملSelf-Assembly of Patchy Particles.
Molecular simulations are performed to study the self-assembly of particles with discrete, attractive interaction sites - "patches" - at prescribed locations on the particle surface. Chains, sheets, rings, icosahedra, square pyramids, tetrahedra, and twisted and staircase structures are obtained through suitable design of the surface pattern of patches. Our simulations predict that the spontane...
متن کاملHomogenization and boundary layer
This paper deals with the homogenization of elliptic systems with Dirichlet boundary condition, when the coefficients of both the system and the boundary data are ε-periodic. We show that, as ε → 0, the solutions converge in L2 with a power rate in ε, and identify the homogenized limit system. Due to a boundary layer phenomenon, this homogenized system depends in a non trivial way on the bounda...
متن کاملPredictive supracolloidal helices from patchy particles
A priori prediction of supracolloidal architectures from nanoparticle and colloidal assembly is a challenging goal in materials chemistry and physics. Despite intense research in this area, much less has been known about the predictive science of supracolloidal helices from designed building blocks. Therefore, developing conceptually new rules to construct supracolloidal architectures with pred...
متن کاملCrystallization of tetrahedral patchy particles in silico.
We investigate the competition between glass formation and crystallization of open tetrahedral structures for particles with tetrahedral patchy interactions. We analyze the outcome of such competition as a function of the potential parameters. Specifically, we focus on the separate roles played by the interaction range and the angular width of the patches, and show that open crystal structures ...
