Assembly of colloidal molecules, polymers, and crystals in acoustic and magnetic fields
Yang, Y., Pham, A. T., Cruz, D., Reyes, C., Wiley, B. J., Lopez, G. P., & Yellen, B. B. (2015). Assembly of colloidal molecules, polymers, and crystals in acoustic and magnetic fields. Advanced Materials, 27(32), 4725-4731. https://doi.org/10.1002/adma.201500462
A dynamically adjustable colloidal assembly technique is presented, which combines magnetic and acoustic fields to produce a wide range of colloidal structures, ranging from discrete colloidal molecules, to polymer networks and crystals. The structures can be stabilized and dried, making them suitable for the fabrication of advanced materials.
