Cluster formation and bulk phase behavior of colloidal dispersions.
We investigated cluster formation in model colloids where the interparticle potential beyond the collision diameter includes a short-ranged attraction and a longer-ranged repulsion. The structure and thermodynamic properties of the model system can be accurately described by the first-order mean-spherical approximation (FMSA) and a perturbation theory for bulk phases and by a nonlocal density-f...
متن کاملThe dynamical crossover in attractive colloidal systems.
We study the dynamical arrest in an adhesive hard-sphere colloidal system. We examine a micellar suspension of the Pluronic-L64 surfactant in the temperature (T) and volume fraction (φ) phase diagram. According to mode-coupling theory (MCT), this system is characterized by a cusp-like singularity and two glassy phases: an attractive glass (AG) phase and a repulsive glass (RG) phase. The T - φ p...
متن کاملLaser-induced reentrant freezing in two-dimensional attractive colloidal systems.
The effects of an externally applied one-dimensional periodic potential on the freezing and melting behavior of two-dimensional systems of colloidal particles with a short-range attractive interaction are studied using Monte Carlo simulations. In such systems, incommensuration results when the periodicity of the external potential does not match the length scale at which the minimum of the attr...
متن کامل5 Cluster formation in complex multi - scale systems
Based on the ordering and competition of length scales in complex multi-scale systems, it is shown how clustering of active quantities into concentrated sets, like bubbles in a Swiss cheese, is a generic property that dominates the intermittent structure. The halo-like surfaces of these clusters have scaling exponents lower than that of their kernels, which can be as high as the domain dimensio...
متن کاملGeneralized phase behavior of cluster formation in colloidal dispersions with competing interactions.
Colloidal liquids interacting with short range attraction and long range repulsion, such as proposed for some protein solutions, have been found to exhibit novel states consisting of equilibrium particle clusters. Monte Carlo simulations are performed for two physically meaningful inter-particle potentials across a broad range of interaction parameters, temperatures and volume fractions to loca...
