Self-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...
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 کاملHierarchical Self-Assembly of Asymmetric Amphiphatic Colloidal Particles
From dumbbells to FCC crystals, we study the self-assembly pathway of amphiphatic, spherical colloidal particles as a function of the size of the hydrophobic region using molecular dynamics simulations. Specifically, we analyze how local inter-particle interactions correlate to the final selfassembled aggregate and how they affect the dynamical pathway of structure formation. We present a detai...
متن کاملSelf-assembly of Coated Colloidal Particles for Optical Applications
28 LLE Review, Volume 97 Introduction Nearly two decades ago, theoretical predictions indicated the possibility of creating omnidirectional photonic-band-gap materials that would prevent the propagation of certain wavelengths of light in all directions, while allowing transmission of other light wavelengths.1,2 Since that time, there has been a growing interest in creating these materials exper...
متن کاملSelf-assembly scenarios of patchy colloidal particles in two dimensions.
We have investigated the self-assembly scenario of patchy colloidal particles in a two-dimensional system. The energetically most favourable ordered particle arrangements have been identified via an optimization tool that is based on genetic algorithms. Assuming different simple models for patchy colloidal particles, which include binary mixtures as well as attraction and repulsion between the ...
