Nature, 2020 Self-assembling colloidal particles in the cubic diamond crystal structure could potentially be used to make materials with a photonic bandgap1-3. Such materials are beneficial because they suppress spontaneous emission of light1 and are valued for their applications as optical waveguides, filters and laser resonators4, for improving light-harvesting ...

Colloid-colloid and colloid-wall interactions in driven suspensions [PDF]
The Journal of Chemical Physics, 2007 We investigate the nonequilibrium fluid structure mediated forces between two colloids driven through a suspension of mutually noninteracting Brownian particles as well as between a colloid and a wall in stationary situations. We solve the Smoluchowski equation in bispherical coordinates as well as with a method of reflections, both in linear ...

Water Science and Technology, 2021 Colloids have a high adsorption capacity and can be mobile under preferential flow, and so may facilitate heavy metal migration. Heavy metal migration with soil colloids in a clayey soil under preferential flow conditions was investigated through ...

Soft Matter, 2020 Colloidal trains consisting of colloidal doublet locomotives and single colloidal carriages self assemble above a magnetic square pattern and are driven by an external magnetic field processing around a high symmetry direction.

Nature Communications, 2016 AbstractOutermost occupied electron shells of chemical elements can have symmetries resembling that of monopoles, dipoles, quadrupoles and octupoles corresponding to filled s-, p-, d- and f-orbitals. Theoretically, elements with hexadecapolar outer shells could also exist, but none of the known elements have filled g-orbitals.

Reversible morphology-resolved chemotactic actuation and motion of Janus emulsion droplets
Nature Communications, 2022 Artificial microswimmers can emulate the autonomous regulation of chemotactic motility of living organisms. Frank et al. realize a chemotactic locomotion of emulsion droplets, composed of two phase-separated fluids, that can be reversibly directed up or ...

Wetting and complex remodeling of membranes by biomolecular condensates
Nature Communications, 2023 Cells compartmentalize parts of their interiors into liquid-like condensates, which can be reconstituted in vitro. Although these condensates interact with membrane-bound organelles, their potential for membrane remodeling and the underlying mechanisms ...

Emergent behavior in active colloids [PDF]
, 2016 Active colloids are microscopic particles, which self-propel through viscous fluids by converting energy extracted from their environment into directed motion.

Controlled division of cell-sized vesicles by low densities of membrane-bound proteins
Nature Communications, 2020 Membrane fission of a cell into two daughters is a core ability of cell-based life. Here the authors show that in artificial cells division can be controlled by regulating membrane curvature using low protein density.
