Shear moduli of two dimensional colloidal mixtures
In this thesis a Mode Coupling Theory (MCT) equation is derived that calculates the shear modulus for multi-component colloidal mixtures in two-dimensional systems in linear approximation. With this equation, the plateau shear modulus G∞ is calculated for two two-dimensional systems at the glass transition: for a binary mixture of hard spheres and for a binary mixture of dipolar particles. The ...
متن کاملThe softening of two-dimensional colloidal crystals
According to the Kosterlitz–Thouless–Halperin–Nelson–Young (KTHNY) theory a two-dimensional (2D) crystal melts when bound pairs of dislocations dissociate into single dislocations. The temperature at which dislocation pairs unbind can be identified by means of the Young’s modulus K passing through 16π . In a previous paper (von Grünberg et al 2004 Phys. Rev. Lett. 93 255703) we analysed video-m...
متن کاملPhonons in two-dimensional soft colloidal crystals.
The vibrational modes of pristine and polycrystalline monolayer colloidal crystals composed of thermosensitive microgel particles are measured using video microscopy and covariance matrix analysis. At low frequencies, the Debye relation for two-dimensional harmonic crystals is observed in both crystal types; at higher frequencies, evidence for van Hove singularities in the phonon density of sta...
متن کاملShear waves in colloidal crystals : I. Determination of the elastic modulus
2014 Shear waves are excited in a latex sample. One detects the vibrations of the sample using light scattering phenomena (Kossel rings). The amplitude of vibrations of the latex sample, when recorded as a function of the frequency of excitation, presents a series of resonances. Analysis of the resonance peaks allows to determine the elastic modulus of the latex crystal. We study the variation ...
متن کاملFabrication of large-area two-dimensional colloidal crystals.
Two-dimensional crystalline colloidal arrays (CCAs) have numerous applications, such as photonic crystal materials and sensors. Recently, numerous methods have been developed to prepare well-ordered 2D assemblies. These methods include spin coating, dip coating, and electrophoretic deposition of colloidal particles on planar substrates to form 2D nanoparticle arrays. Particle assembly at interf...
