Frustration and Melting of Colloidal Molecular Crystals | | C.J. Olson Reichhardt

15 Oct 2002 | | Journal: | J. Phys. A: Math. Gen. 36, 5841 (2003) | | Subject: | Soft Condensed Matter | cond-mat.soft | | Abstract: | Using numerical simulations we show that a variety of novel colloidal crystalline states and multi-step melting phenomena occur on square and triangular two-dimensional periodic substrates. At half-integer fillings different kinds of frustration effects can be realized. A two-step melting transition can occur in which individual colloidal molecules initially rotate, destroying the overall orientational order, followed by the onset of interwell colloidal hopping, in good agreement with recent experiments. | | Source: | arXiv, cond-mat/0210311 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
