Patterning multilayers of molecules via self-organization.
The electric dipole interaction among adsorbate molecules may cause them to form regular nanopatterns. In a multilayer system, the self-organization of each layer is also influenced by the underlying layers. This Letter develops a phase field model to simulate the molecular patterning process. The study reveals self-alignment, scaling down of size, and the effect of guided self-assembly with em...
متن کاملActive gels: dynamics of patterning and self-organization.
The actin cytoskeleton is an active gel which constantly remodels during cellular processes such as motility and division. Myosin II molecular motors are involved in this active remodeling process and therefore control the dynamic self-organization of cytoskeletal structures. Due to the complexity of in vivo systems, it is hard to investigate the role of myosin II in the reorganization process ...
متن کاملPatterning colloidal films via evaporative lithography.
We investigate evaporative lithography as a route for patterning colloidal films. Films are dried beneath a mask that induces periodic variations between regions of free and hindered evaporation. Direct imaging reveals that particles segregate laterally within the film, as fluid and entrained particles migrate towards regions of higher evaporative flux. The films exhibit remarkable pattern form...
متن کاملOrder from disorder: Self-organization in mammalian hair patterning.
Hairs, feathers, and scales normally exhibit precise orientations with respect to the body axes. In Frizzled6 (Fz6)(-/-) mice, the global orientation of hair follicles is disrupted, leading to waves, whorls, and tufts, each comprising many hundreds of hairs. By analyzing the orientation of developing hair follicles, we observed that the nearly parallel arrangement of wild-type (WT) hairs arises...
متن کاملDemocratic Reinforcement: Learning via Self-Organization
The problem of learning in the absence of external intelligence is discussed in the context of a simple model. The model consists of a set of randomly connected, or layered integrate-and fire neurons. Inputs to and outputs from the environment are connected randomly to subsets of neurons. The connections between firing neurons are strengthened or weakened according to whether the action is succ...
