This project investigates the use of active colloids as components for creating self-assembled materials. By employing computer simulations, it explores the behavior of these colloids under non-equilibrium conditions, with potential applications in material science and fundamental physics.
I plan to explore, by means of different molecular and mesoscale computer simulation techniques, the possibility of using active colloids as building blocks for self-assembled material.
Active colloids are a novel class of soft matter maintained out of equilibrium, even in steady state, by internal energy sources.
Examples are colloids producing small molecules at their surface (chuckers") that move due to an osmotic pressure imbalance caused by e. g. non-equilibrium density fluctuations of the…
