متن کاملTheory of crystallization and orientational ordering of spherical Janus colloids
Submitted for the MAR13 Meeting of The American Physical Society Theory of crystallization and orientational ordering of spherical Janus colloids HOMIN SHIN, KENNETH SCHWEIZER, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign — Amphiphilic Janus particles have two chemically distinct surfaces, one hydrophobic (attractive) and the other hydrophilic (repulsive), resulting in orientationally anisotropic...
متن کاملDislocations and vacancies in two-dimensional mixed crystals of spheres and dimers.
In colloidal crystals of spheres, dislocation motion is unrestricted. On the other hand, recent studies of relaxation in crystals of colloidal dimer particles have demonstrated that the dislocation dynamics in such crystals are reminiscent of glassy systems. The observed glassy dynamics arise as a result of dislocation cages formed by certain dimer orientations. In the current study, we use exp...
متن کاملSelective Janus particle assembly at tipping points of thermally-switched wetting.
Thermal wetting can simply, selectively and reversibly join patchy particles into clusters (2D and 3D) and also colloidal crystals over the narrow temperature range of 1-2 °C. This is demonstrated with Janus particles (gold half-coated silica spheres) immersed in a binary mixture of water/2,6-lutidine, such that the relative strength of gold-gold bonding through hydrophobic interaction and sili...
متن کاملFreezing of binary mixtures of colloidal hard spheres
The freezing phase transition in a binary suspension of conoidal hard spheres of diameter ratio a = 0.61 was studied by light scattering and scanning electron microscopy. The suspensions consisted of stericaHy stabilized poly( methyl methacrylate) spheres of diameters about 670 and 407 nm suspended in a near refractive indexed matched suspension medium composed of carbon disulphide and cis-deca...
