An introduction to stochastic self-assembly: theory, simulation and experimental applications [PDF]
arXiv, 2015 We introduce three stochastic cooperative models for particle deposition and evaporation relevant to ionic self-assembly of nanoparticles with applications in surface fabrication and nanomedicine. We present a method for mapping a stochastic model onto the Ising model, which allows us to use the established results for the Ising model to describe the ...

Self-assembling kinetics: Accessing a new design space via differentiable statistical-physics models [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 The inverse problem of designing component interactions to target emergent structure is fundamental to numerous applications in biotechnology, materials science, and statistical physics. Equally important is the inverse problem of designing emergent kinetics, but this has received considerably less attention.

Thermally Induced Gelling Systems Based on Patchy Polymeric Micelles
Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 35, Issue 12, March 18, 2025.A novel strategy to design thermally induced gelling systems with tunable material properties is reported. Polymeric mixed‐shell micelles displaying multiple thermosensitive patchy domains formed hydrogels by assembling into well‐entangled worm‐like network structures upon heating to body temperature. The patchy micelle design significantly affects the

Self‐assembling amphiphilic peptides
Journal of Peptide Science, 2014 The self‐assembly of several classes of amphiphilic peptides is reviewed, and selected applications are discussed. We discuss recent work on the self‐assembly of lipopeptides, surfactant‐like peptides and amyloid peptides derived from the amyloid‐βpeptide. The influence of environmental variables such as pH and temperature on aggregate nanostructure is

Size-Dependent Tile Self-Assembly: Constant-Height Rectangles and Stability [PDF]
arXiv, 2015 We introduce a new model of algorithmic tile self-assembly called size-dependent assembly. In previous models, supertiles are stable when the total strength of the bonds between any two halves exceeds some constant temperature. In this model, this constant temperature requirement is replaced by an nondecreasing temperature function $\tau : \mathbb{N ...

Exploiting classical nucleation theory for reverse self-assembly
, 2010 In this paper we introduce a new method to design interparticle interactions to target arbitrary crystal structures via the process of self-assembly. We show that it is possible to exploit the curvature of the crystal nucleation free-energy barrier to ...

Structurally Colored Physically Unclonable Functions with Ultra‐Rich and Stable Encoding Capacity
Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 35, Issue 12, March 18, 2025.This study reports a design strategy for generating bright‐field resolvable physically unclonable functions with extremely rich encoding capacity coupled with outstanding thermal and chemical stability. The optical response emerges from thickness‐dependent structural color formation in ZnO features, which are fabricated by physical vapor deposition ...
