Self assembly of Janus ellipsoids.
We propose a primitive model of Janus ellipsoids that represents particles with an ellipsoidal core and two semisurfaces coded with dissimilar properties, for example, hydrophobicity and hydrophilicity, respectively. We investigate the effects of the aspect ratio on the self-assembly morphology and aggregation processes using Monte Carlo simulations. We also discuss certain differences between ...
متن کاملSelf-assembly of Janus ellipsoids: a Brownian dynamics simulation with a quantitative nonspherical-particle model.
Janus ellipsoids as mesoscale building blocks can aggregate into various micelle-like structures in solution that have potential applications in many fields such as novel surfactants, photonic crystals, drug delivery and biochemical sensors. In this work, we present a novel nonspherical-particle model to investigate the self-assembly of Janus ellipsoids, which quantitatively reflects interactio...
متن کاملSelf - assembly of dielectric Janus particles
Submitted for the MAR14 Meeting of The American Physical Society Self-assembly of dielectric Janus particles HUANXIN WU, ERIK LUIJTEN, Northwestern University — We consider dielectrically heterogeneous Janus particles, spherical colloids with a dielectric mismatch between their two hemispheres. When such particles are suspended in solution, this mismatch leads to different polarization charges ...
متن کاملSelf-Assembly of Hydrofluorinated Janus Graphene Monolayer: A Versatile Route for Designing Novel Janus Nanoscrolls
With remarkably interesting surface activities, two-dimensional Janus materials arouse intensive interests recently in many fields. We demonstrate by molecular dynamic simulations that hydrofluorinated Janus graphene (J-GN) can self-assemble into Janus nanoscroll (J-NS) at room temperature. The van der Waals (vdW) interaction and the coupling of C-H/π/C-F interaction and π/π interaction are pro...
متن کاملActuation of shape-memory colloidal fibres of Janus ellipsoids.
Many natural micrometre-scale assemblies can be actuated to control their optical, transport and mechanical properties, yet such functionality is lacking in colloidal structures synthesized thus far. Here, we show with experiments and computer simulations that Janus ellipsoids can self-assemble into self-limiting one-dimensional fibres with shape-memory properties, and that the fibrillar assemb...
