Static and dynamic friction in sliding colloidal monolayers.
In a pioneer experiment, Bohlein et al. realized the controlled sliding of two-dimensional colloidal crystals over laser-generated periodic or quasi-periodic potentials. Here we present realistic simulations and arguments that besides reproducing the main experimentally observed features give a first theoretical demonstration of the potential impact of colloid sliding in nanotribology. The free...
متن کاملSubharmonic Shapiro steps of sliding colloidal monolayers in optical lattices.
We investigate theoretically the possibility to observe dynamical mode locking, in the form of Shapiro steps, when a time-periodic potential or force modulation is applied to a two-dimensional (2D) lattice of colloidal particles that are dragged by an external force over an optically generated periodic potential. Here we present realistic molecular dynamics simulations of a 2D experimental setu...
متن کاملDynamic light scattering from colloidal fractal monolayers.
We address experimentally the problem of how the structure of a surface monolayer determines the viscoelasticity of the interface. Optical microscopy and surface quasielastic light scattering have been used to characterize aggregation of CaCO3 particles at the air-water interface. The structures formed by cluster-cluster aggregation are two-dimensional fractals that grow to eventually form a pe...
متن کاملStatic and dynamic friction of hierarchical surfaces.
Hierarchical structures are very common in nature, but only recently have they been systematically studied in materials science, in order to understand the specific effects they can have on the mechanical properties of various systems. Structural hierarchy provides a way to tune and optimize macroscopic mechanical properties starting from simple base constituents and new materials are nowadays ...
متن کاملStructural signatures of dynamic heterogeneities in monolayers of colloidal ellipsoids
When a liquid is supercooled towards the glass transition, its dynamics drastically slows down, whereas its static structure remains relatively unchanged. Finding a structural signature of the dynamic slowing down is a major challenge, yet it is often too subtle to be uncovered. Here we discover the structural signatures for both translational and rotational dynamics in monolayers of colloidal ...
