The progressive replacement of organic solvent-based coatings by waterborne latex
polymer coatings has substantially renovated the coating industry, and generated huge …

The glass transition is the most enduring grand-challenge problem in contemporary
condensed matter physics. Here, we review the contribution of colloid experiments to our …

We report experimental and computational observations of dynamic contact networks for
colloidal suspensions undergoing shear thickening. The dense suspensions are comprised …

Electron-vibration coupling is of critical importance for the development of molecular
electronics, spintronics, and quantum technologies, as it affects transport properties and spin …

Harnessing anisotropic interactions in a DNA-mediated nanoparticle assembly holds great
promise as a rational strategy to advance this important area. Here, using molecular …

Colloidal Janus spheres in the bulk typically spontaneously assemble into plastic crystalline
phases, while particle orientations exhibit glasslike dynamics without long-range order …

We propose a simple and general mesoscale soft patchy particle model, which can
felicitously describe the deformable and surface-anisotropic characteristics of soft patchy …

We investigate how amphiphilic Janus particle assembly structures, including clusters and
striped two-dimensional (2D) crystals, are influenced by the addition of surfactant molecules …

Long‐range‐ordered structures of nanoparticles with controllable orientation have
advantages in applications toward sensors, photoelectric conversion, and field‐effect …

Amphiphilic Janus particles demonstrate unique assembly structures when dried on a
hydrophilic substrate. Particle orientations are influenced by amphiphilicity and Janus …
