摘要:

在高面积分数下,胶体二聚体颗粒的单层形成简并晶体(DC)结构,其中颗粒叶占据三角形晶格位点,而颗粒沿三个晶格方向中的任一个随机取向。我们报告说,位错滑移在DC被阻止某些粒子的取向。这些障碍物之间的晶格常数的平均数是4.6 +/- 0.2在实验观察到的DC晶粒和6.18 +/- 0.01在模拟单晶DC。观察到超过这些障碍物的位错传播通过位错反应进行。我们估计,位错对分离通过这样的反应,否则缺陷免费DC的能量成本与最终的分离线性增长,暗示DC的材料特性可能是显着不同的2-D晶体的球体。

英文摘要:

At high area fractions, monolayers of colloidal dimer particles form a degenerate crystal (DC) structure in which the particle lobes occupy triangular lattice sites while the particles are oriented randomly along any of the three lattice directions. We report that dislocation glide in DCs is blocked by certain particle orientations. The mean number of lattice constants between such obstacles is 4.6 +/- 0.2 in experimentally observed DC grains and 6.18 +/- 0.01 in simulated monocrystalline DCs. Dislocation propagation beyond these obstacles is observed to proceed through dislocation reactions. We estimate that the energetic cost of dislocation pair separation via such reactions in an otherwise defect free DC grows linearly with final separation, hinting that the material properties of DCs may be dramatically different from those of 2-D crystals of spheres.
