摘要:

胶体颗粒被认为是生产具有增强物理性能的材料的理想构建块。用于合成这些颗粒的最先进技术提供了对相互作用的形状、大小和方向性的控制。尽管取得了这些进展,但在各个组成部分的综合与对其自发组织的管理之间仍然存在巨大差距。主要的挑战是对自组织动力学的控制。在其朝向化学稳定结构的动力学路线中,胶体颗粒自组织成比单个颗粒大得多的中间(介观)结构,并成为动力学的相关单元。为了跟踪动力学并识别动力学捕获结构,需要开发新的理论和数值工具。在这里,我们讨论的自组织功能化胶体(也称为斑片状胶体)的吸引力基板。我们回顾了我们最近的吸附和弛豫的结果,并探讨了使用退火循环来克服动力学障碍,并推动弛豫向目标结构。

英文摘要:

Colloidal particles are considered ideal building blocks to produce materials with enhanced physical properties. The state-of-the-art techniques for synthesizing these particles provide control over shape, size, and directionality of the interactions. In spite of these advances, there is still a huge gap between the synthesis of individual components and the management of their spontaneous organization towards the desired structures. The main challenge is the control over the dynamics of self-organization. In their kinetic route towards thermodynamically stable structures, colloidal particles self-organize into intermediate (mesoscopic) structures that are much larger than the individual particles and become the relevant units for the dynamics. To follow the dynamics and identify kinetically trapped structures, one needs to develop new theoretical and numerical tools. Here we discuss the self-organization of functionalized colloids (also known as patchy colloids) on attractive substrates. We review our recent results on the adsorption and relaxation and explore the use of annealing cycles to overcome kinetic barriers and drive the relaxation towards the targeted structures.
