Percolation in suspensions of hard nanoparticles: From spheres to needles (2015)
Journal Article
Schilling, T., Miller, M. A., & van der Schoot, P. (2015). Percolation in suspensions of hard nanoparticles: From spheres to needles. European Physical Society Letters, 111(5), Article 56004. https://doi.org/10.1209/0295-5075/111/56004

We investigate geometric percolation and scaling relations in suspensions of nanorods, covering the entire range of aspect ratios from spheres to extremely slender needles. A new version of connectedness percolation theory is introduced and tested ag... Read More about Percolation in suspensions of hard nanoparticles: From spheres to needles.

Design strategies for self-assembly of discrete targets (2015)
Journal Article
Madge, J., & Miller, M. A. (2015). Design strategies for self-assembly of discrete targets. The Journal of Chemical Physics, 143(4), Article 044905. https://doi.org/10.1063/1.4927671

Both biological and artificial self-assembly processes can take place by a range of different schemes, from the successive addition of identical building blocks to hierarchical sequences of intermediates, all the way to the fully addressable limit in...

Dynamics and thermodynamics of decay in charged clusters (2015)
Journal Article
Miller, M. A., Bonhommeau, D. A., Moerland, C. P., Gray, S. J., & Gaigeot, M. (2015). Dynamics and thermodynamics of decay in charged clusters. Molecular Physics, 113(17-18), 2428-2434. https://doi.org/10.1080/00268976.2015.1037805

We propose a method for quantifying charge-driven instabilities in clusters, based on equilibrium simulations under confinement at constant external pressure. This approach makes no assumptions about the mode of decay and allows different clusters to... Read More about Dynamics and thermodynamics of decay in charged clusters.
