Phase behavior of repulsive polymer-tethered colloids.
We report molecular dynamics simulations of a system of repulsive, polymer-tethered colloidal particles. We use an explicit polymer model to explore how the length and the behavior of the polymer (ideal or self-avoiding) affect the ability of the particles to organize into ordered structures when the system is compressed to moderate volume fractions. We find a variety of different phases whose ...
متن کاملEmergent behavior in active colloids
Active colloids are microscopic particles, which self-propel through viscous fluids by converting energy extracted from their environment into directed motion. We first explain how artificial microswimmers move forward by generating near-surface flow fields via self-phoresis or the self-induced Marangoni effect. We then discuss generic features of the dynamics of single active colloids in bulk ...
متن کاملCluster Morphology of Protein-Coated Polymer Colloids.
We report measurements on the aggregation processes in a colloidal suspension of polystyrene particles covered with F(ab')2 (immunoglobulin IgG fragment) performed by static and dynamic light scattering. In order to study the cluster morphology of aggregates, the fractal dimension is obtained from the dependence of the scattered intensity on the scattering wave number. The stability domains of ...
متن کاملControlled flats on spherical polymer colloids.
Colloidal particles with heterogeneous surfaces offer rich possibilities for controlled self-assembly. We have developed a method for preparing micrometer-sized polystyrene spheres with circular flat spots of controlled radius and location. The flats are created by settling the particles onto a flat glass substrate and then raising the temperature above the glass-transition temperature of the p...
متن کاملPolymer bridging probed by magnetic colloids.
Superparamagnetic particles offer a new way to probe the kinetics of adhesive processes. Two different scenarios of physical adhesion are studied. The thermal activation of van der Waals adhesion is well described by an Arrhenius model. In contrast, it is necessary to go beyond the Arrhenius description to understand the thermal activation of bridging between colloidal particles by a polymer at...
