Self-assembly of active colloidal molecules with dynamic function.
Catalytically active colloids maintain nonequilibrium conditions in which they produce and deplete chemicals and hence effectively act as sources and sinks of molecules. While individual colloids that are symmetrically coated do not exhibit any form of dynamical activity, the concentration fields resulting from their chemical activity decay as 1/r and produce gradients that attract or repel oth...
متن کاملColloidal Crystals-Self-Assembly of Monodispersed Colloidal Particles-
Colloidal crystals are three-dimensionally periodic lattices assembled from monodispersed spherical colloids. The ability to crystallize spherical colloids into spatially periodic structures has enabled interesting and often useful functionality not only from the constituent colloidal particles, but also from the long-range order exhibited by these periodic structures. A variety of methods by w...
متن کاملStaged self-assembly of colloidal metastructures.
We demonstrate sequential assembly of chemically patchy colloids such that their valence differs from stage to stage to produce hierarchical structures. For proof of concept, we employ ACB triblock spheres suspended in water, with the C middle band electrostatically repulsive. In the first assembly stage, only A-A hydrophobic attraction contributes, and discrete clusters form. They can be store...
متن کاملControlled self-assembly of colloidal cobalt nanocrystals
Spherical cobalt particles are synthesized by injecting stock solution (0.54 g Co2(CO)8 dissolved in 3ml 1,2-dichlorobenzene) into refluxing 1,2-dichlorobenzene at 182 C in the presence of 0.2ml oleic acid and 0.1 g TOPO. Disks are prepared in a similar manner except 0.34 g linear amines are substituted for TOPO. We are developing a precipitation technique that is a variation of the solvent–non...
متن کاملSelf-Assembly of Polyhedral Hybrid Colloidal Particles
We have developed a new method to produce hybrid particles with polyhedral shapes in very high yield (liter quantities at up to 70% purity) using a combination of emulsion polymerization and inorganic surface chemistry. The procedure has been generalized to create complex geometries, including hybrid line segments, triangles, tetrahedra, octahedra, and more. The optical properties of these part...
