Self Assembly of Patchy Anisotropic Particle Forming Free Standing Monolayer Film

Vikki Anand Varma et al.

Summary: Synthesizing thin films using self assembly is an important challenge for making engineered materials for applications such as photonics and filtration. In this study, a simple model of prolate ellipsoidal particles with two directional bonds was presented and their phase behavior was examined using Monte Carlo simulation. It was found that anisotropic particles with patches can form two different types of 3D ordered structures, along with a thermodynamically stable monolayer. The phase diagram suggests that the desired 2D superstructure can be achieved through self assembly.

Entropy compartmentalization stabilizes open host-guest colloidal clathrates

Sangmin Lee et al.

Summary: In this study, hard truncated triangular bipyramids self-assemble into seven different colloidal clathrate crystals, consisting of cages that are either empty or occupied by guest particles. Monte Carlo simulations reveal that the crystallization occurs through the compartmentalization of entropy between low- and high-entropy subsystems for the host and guest particles. The researchers also use entropic bonding theory to design host-guest colloidal clathrates with explicit interparticle attraction for experimental realization.

Design strategies for the self-assembly of polyhedral shells

Diogo E. P. Pinto et al.

Summary: The control over self-assembly of complex structures, particularly at the colloidal scale, has been a significant challenge in material science. The formation of amorphous aggregates often disrupts the desired assembly pathway. In this study, we investigate the self-assembly problem of three Archimedean shells using patchy particles as model building blocks. By recasting the assembly problem as a Boolean satisfiability problem, we find effective designs and selectively suppress unwanted structures.

Rigidity-Induced Controlled Aggregation of Binary Colloids

Zakiya Shireen et al.

Summary: This study investigates the impact of bond flexibility on aggregation behavior in a binary colloidal system. The findings demonstrate that the rigidity of bonds increases the critical concentration for gel formation and alters the kinetics of aggregation for both species. This research improves our understanding of colloidal aggregation in soft and biological systems.

A prototype protein nanocage minimized from carboxysomes with gated oxygen permeability

Ruimin Gao et al.

Summary: In this study, an oxygen-impermeable protein nanocage (OIPNC) was assembled from the vertex protein of the j3-carboxysome shell, CcmL, using quantum dots as a template via interfacial engineering. The structure of the cage was solved at the atomic scale and a gating mechanism was established to control oxygen permeability. The CcmL OIPNC represents a versatile platform for various applications.

Nanoreactors for particle synthesis

Jordan H. Swisher et al.

Summary: Nanoreactors are promising tools for synthesizing nanoparticles by isolating chemical precursors within confined spaces. They can be prepared by solution-based or substrate-confined strategies. Current research has expanded the focus beyond pure synthesis to creating large and complex libraries of materials and exploring the materials genome through high-throughput screening techniques.

Three-dimensional visualization of nanoparticle lattices and multimaterial frameworks

Aaron Michelson et al.

Summary: Advances in nanoscale self-assembly techniques have allowed for the creation of complex nanostructures. However, accurately imaging these structures in three dimensions at the single-component level with elemental sensitivity has been a challenge. In this study, we present a nondestructive three-dimensional imaging technique using nano-focused hard x-rays, DNA-programmable nanoparticle assembly, and nanoscale inorganic templating. With this technique, we were able to determine the positions of individual nanoparticles and identify the arrangements of assembly motifs in a three-dimensional lattice, as well as observe the resulting multimaterial framework with elemental sensitivity.

Symmetry-breaking in patch formation on triangular gold nanoparticles by asymmetric polymer grafting

Ahyoung Kim et al.

Summary: This study demonstrates quantitative control over asymmetric polymer grafting on triangular Au nanoprisms based on polymer scaling theory. The authors show that polymers can selectively adsorb onto nanoparticle surfaces already partially coated by other chains, resulting in the formation of patchy nanoparticles with broken symmetry. These asymmetric nanoparticles exhibit intriguing plasmonic properties and their formation can be accurately predicted by a developed theory.

Topological nature of the liquid-liquid phase transition in tetrahedral liquids

Enhancement in the diffusivity of Brownian spheroids in the presence of spheres

Vikki Anand Varma et al.

Summary: In this paper, we extended the simulation technique Brownian cluster dynamics (BCD) to analyze the dynamics of a binary mixture. By manipulating the phase behavior of the system through varying the fraction of spheres, we investigated ways to enhance the diffusivity of spheroids in the mixture, and found that the diffusion coefficient of the ellipsoids increases with the volume fraction.

Local rules for the self-assembly of a non-quasi-equivalent viral capsid

Giuliana Indelicato et al.

Summary: The structures of many large bacteriophages do not strictly adhere to the quasi-equivalence principle of viral architecture. The P23-77 capsids, classified as T = 28d, self-assemble from multiple copies of two types of coat protein subunits, resulting in hexameric capsomers that do not conform to the Caspar-Klug paradigm. The assembly mechanism that leads to such complex capsid organization remains an open problem.

Double-Layered Supramolecular Prisms Self-Assembled by Geometrically Non-equivalent Tetratopic Subunits

Heng Wang et al.

Summary: Supramolecular cages/vesicles in biology demonstrate complex structures and functions by utilizing a few types of protein subunits quasi-equivalently at distinct geometrical locations. Synthetic supramolecular cages lack comparable complexity to natural systems. Self-assembled giant pentagonal supramolecular prisms with tetratopic pyridinyl subunits exhibit unexpected three-fold rotational symmetry in a novel superstructure, providing a new approach to construct highly sophisticated supramolecular architectures.

Virus self-assembly proceeds through contact-rich energy minima

Pedro Buzon et al.

Summary: The assembly pathway and energy balance of hepatitis B virus (HBV) were revealed using fluorescence optical tweezers and high-speed atomic force microscopy. A specific, contact-rich pentameric arrangement of HBV capsid proteins was identified as a key intermediate in the assembly process, which is driven by a free energy change per condensed nucleotide. These findings have important implications for understanding the assembly of HBV and other viruses, as well as for developing new antiviral strategies and designing self-assembling nanomaterials.
