化学排斥活性胶体的成簇和斑图形成

Clustering and pattern formation in chemorepulsive active colloids

Benno Liebchen, Davide Marenduzzo, Ignacio Pagonabarraga, Michael E. Cates

摘要:

我们证明,远离自产化学品(化学排斥)的迁移产生了一个通用的路径,集群和斑图形成之间的自推进胶体。团簇的不稳定性可能是由各向异性的化学生产,或由延迟的取向反应的化学环境的变化。在每种情况下,化学排斥都会产生一个自我限制区域的集群,该区域随着自我推进速度线性增长。这与最近在Janus胶体中观察到的动态簇一致(尽管还不知道是化学排斥性的)。更一般地说,我们的研究结果可以告知化学排斥合成游泳者和/或细菌的自组装成非平衡模式的设计原则。

英文摘要:

We demonstrate that migration away from self-produced chemicals (chemorepulsion) generates a generic route to clustering and pattern formation among self-propelled colloids. The clustering instability can be caused either by anisotropic chemical production, or by a delayed orientational response to changes of the chemical environment. In each case, chemorepulsion creates clusters of a self-limiting area which grows linearly with self-propulsion speed. This agrees with recent observations of dynamic clusters in Janus colloids (albeit not yet known to be chemorepulsive). More generally, our results could inform design principles for the self-assembly of chemorepulsive synthetic swimmers and/or bacteria into nonequilibrium patterns.
