Configurational and energy landscape in one-dimensional Coulomb systems

open access: yes, 2016
We study a one dimensional Coulomb system, where two charged colloids are neutralized by a collection of point counterions, with global neutrality. Temperature being given, two situations are addressed: the colloids are either kept at fixed positions ...

Fluid-fluid demixing curves for colloid-polymer mixtures in a random colloidal matrix [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We study fluid-fluid phase separation in a colloid-polymer mixture adsorbed in a colloidal porous matrix close to the \theta -point. For this purpose we consider the Asakura-Oosawa model in the presence of a quenched matrix of colloidal hard spheres. We study the dependence of the demixing curve on the parameters that characterize the quenched matrix ...

Flocking ferromagnetic colloids

open access: yesScience Advances, 2017
Energized by a vertical alternating magnetic field, colloidal particles roll and flock together. Assemblages of microscopic colloidal particles exhibit fascinating collective motion when energized by electric or magnetic fields.

Clustering and Pattern Formation in Chemorepulsive Active Colloids. [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2015
We demonstrate that migration away from self-produced chemicals (chemorepulsion) generates a generic route to clustering and pattern formation among self-propelled colloids.

Dichloromethylation of enones by carbon nitride photocatalysis

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Long-lived carbon nitride radicals have been used in several photocatalytic reactions. Herein, long-lived potassium poly(heptazine imide) radicals enable synthesis of γ,γ-dichloroketones from enones by addition of CHCl2 moiety, generated from chloroform,

Self-assembly of Active Colloidal Molecules with Dynamic Function

open access: yes, 2015
Catalytically active colloids maintain non-equilibrium conditions in which they produce and deplete chemicals and hence effectively act as sources and sinks of molecules.

Artificial Receptor in Synthetic Cells Performs Transmembrane Activation of Proteolysis

open access: yesAdvanced Biology, EarlyView.
Transmembrane signaling is the hallmark of living cells and is among the highest challenges for the design of synthetic cells. Herein, an artificial receptor based on the chemistry of self‐immolative linkers is used to communicate information across the lipid bilayer, for transmembrane activation of enzymatic activity. Abstract The design of artificial,

Transport and Deposition of Variably Charged Soil Colloids in Saturated Porous Media

open access: yesVadose Zone Journal, 2011
A series of column experiments was conducted to investigate the transport and deposition of variably charged colloids in saturated porous media. Soil colloids with diameters

Formation, Aggregation, and Deposition Dynamics of NOM-Iron Colloids at Anoxic-Oxic Interfaces.

open access: yesEnvironmental Science and Technology, 2017
The important role of natural organic matter (NOM)-Fe colloids in influencing contaminant transport, and this role can be influenced by the formation, aggregation, and particle deposition dynamics of NOM-Fe colloids.

Shape-preserving erosion controlled by the graded microarchitecture of shark tooth enameloid

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Shark teeth have short lifespans yet can be subject to significant mechanical damage. Here, the authors report on a site-specific damage mechanism in shark teeth enameloid, which maintains tooth functional shape, providing experimental evidence that ...
