Amphiphilic Janus Particles Confined in Symmetrical and Janus-Like Slits. [PDF]

open access: yesACS Omega, 2023
We use Monte Carlo simulations to investigate the behavior of Janus spheres composed of attractive and repulsive parts confined between two parallel solid surfaces. The slits with identical and competing walls are studied. The adsorption isotherms of Janus particles are determined, and the impact of the density in the pore on the morphology is ...

Janus particles at liquid−liquid interfaces

open access: yesLangmuir, 2006
Following recent theoretical predictions, we report on the first experiments on the interfacial activity of so-called Janus nanoparticles (i.e., bifacial particles consisting of a gold and an iron oxide moiety).

Janus balance of amphiphilic colloidal particles

open access: yesThe Journal of Chemical Physics, 2007
We introduce the notion of "Janus balance" (J), defined as the dimensionless ratio of work to transfer an amphiphilic colloidal particle (a "Janus particle") from the oil-water interface into the oil phase, normalized by the work ...

Simultaneous surface modification and mechanical enhancement of micro/nanofiber fabrics achieved by Janus particles

open access: yeseXPRESS Polymer Letters, 2021
The immiscible polymeric blend of polypropylene (PP) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) was manufactured into multifilament fibers via the melt-spinning process, of which the mass ratio of PP to PVA was selected as 30%/70%.

Architectural fabrication of multifunctional janus nanostructures for biomedical applications [PDF]

open access: yesNanomedicine Journal, 2022
The domain of Janus nanoparticles (JNPs) has seen a surge in research and development during the last decade. JNPs are anisotropic composite innovations with remarkable characteristics that depict a peculiar class of particles, which integrate the ...

Entropy Production in a System of Janus Particles. [PDF]

open access: yesEntropy (Basel)
Entropy production is a key descriptor of out-of-equilibrium behavior in active matter systems, providing insights into both single-particle dynamics and emergent collective phenomena. It helps determine transport coefficients and phoretic velocities and serves as a crucial tool for understanding collective phenomena such as structural transitions ...

Electrophoresis of active Janus particles [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Chemical Physics, 2019
We theoretically consider the dynamics of a self-propelled active Janus motor moving in an external electric field. The external field can manipulate the route of a Janus particle and force it to move toward the desired targets. To investigate the trajectory of this active motor, we use a perturbative scheme.

Polarization of active Janus particles [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review E, 2014
We study the collective motion of Janus particles in a temperature or concentration gradient. Because of the torque exerted by an external or self-generated field, the particles align their axis on this gradient. In a swarm of self-driven particles, this polarization enhances the interactiondriven confinement.

Revealing the Formation Dynamics of Janus Polymer Particles: Insights from Experiments and Molecular Dynamics.

open access: yes, 2023
Seeded emulsion polymerization is one of the best-known methods for preparing polymer particles with controlled size, composition, and shape. It first requires the preparation of seed particles, which are then swollen with additional monomer (the same as
