Hybridization of colloidal handlebodies with singular defects and topological solitons in chiral liquid crystals

Topology can manifest itself in colloids when quantified by invariants like Euler characteristics of nonzero-genus colloidal surfaces, albeit spherical colloidal particles are most often studied, and colloidal particles with complex topology are rarely considered. On the other hand, singular defects and topological solitons often define the physical behavior of the molecular alignment director fields in liquid crystals. Interestingly, nematic liquid crystalline dispersions of colloidal particles allow for probing the interplay between topologies of surfaces and fields, but only a limited number of such cases have been explored so far. Here, we study the hybridization of topological solitons, singular defects, and topologically nontrivial colloidal particles with the genus of surfaces different from zero in a chiral nematic liquid crystal phase. Hybridization occurs when distortions separately induced by colloidal particles and LC solitons overlap, leading to energy minimization-driven redistribution of director field deformations and defects. As a result, hybrid director configurations emerge, combining topological features from both components. We uncover a host of director field configurations complying with topological theorems, which can be controlled by applying electric fields. Rotational and translational dynamics arise due to the nonreciprocal evolution of the director fields in response to alternating electric fields of different frequencies. These findings help define a platform for controlling topologically hyper-complex colloidal structures and dynamics with electrically reconfigurable singular defects and topological solitons induced by colloidal handlebodies.

Directing Polymorphism of Colloid Crystals Using Conformational Entropy of Polymer Chains

Controlling the polytypes of close-packed structures of spherical colloids is still a challenging problem despite their wide occurrence. Here, in this work, we show that systematic engineering of the polytype structures of close-packed colloids is possible by using the conformational entropy of polymer chains confined in the interstitial space of colloid crystals. Our interstitial space analysis shows that the hexagonal close-packed (HCP) structures offer larger local interstitial space domains, and the structure director chains in favor of HCP counteract the entropic advantages of the face-centered cubic (FCC) lattices. Using model block copolymer colloids and the known lattice entropy of FCC, a proportionality parameter, β CP = 1.91 × 10 –3 ± 3.67 × 10 –4 , for quantifying the conformational entropy contribution toward HCP structures is extracted. This work demonstrates that the interstitial space of colloid crystals serves as a new structure engineering tool for the self-assembly of colloids.

Visualizing energy transfer between redox-active colloids

Redox-active colloids (RACs) represent a novel class of energy carriers that exchange electrical energy upon contact. Understanding contact-mediated electron transfer dynamics in RACs offers insights into physical contact events in colloidal suspensions and enables quantification of electrical energy transport in nonconjugated polymers. Redox-based electron transport was directly observed in monolayers of micron-sized RACs containing ethyl-viologen side groups via fluorescence microscopy through an unexpected nonlinear electrofluorochromism that is quantitatively coupled to the redox state of the colloid. Via imaging studies, using this electrofluorochromism, the apparent charge transfer diffusion coefficient D CT of the RAC was easily determined. The visualization of energy transport within suspensions of redox-active colloids was also demonstrated. Our work elucidates fundamental mechanisms of energy transport in colloidal systems, informs the development of next-generation redox flow batteries, and may inspire new designs of smart active soft matter including conductive polymers for applications ranging from electrochemical sensors and organic electronics to colloidal robotics.

Colloidal Behavior of Plutonium Oxide in Concentrated Electrolyte Solutions

The Hanford Site in Washington State manages legacy high-level radioactive waste streams that display major chemistry and engineering challenges, including the high salt levels and pH values that correspond to conditions under which many classical concepts describing chemical reactivity cannot be applied. One particular challenge that needs to be tackled at Hanford is that Pu concentrations, [Pu], in the soluble phases of the tank wastes are higher than expected based on the solubility of crystalline PuO2, which is widely accepted to be caused by the formation of PuO2 colloid, consisting of nano- to submicron-sized particles (PuO2 NPs). Fundamental research underpinning the behavior of PuO2 NPs under conditions not only relevant to the Hanford tank waste but at high ionic strength in general is needed to reliably predict the chemical reactivity of PuO2 NPs and develop engineering solutions to safely and efficiently process high-level radioactive waste into forms suitable for long-term storage. In this work, we study the behavior of PuO2 NPs (particle size ~100 nm) under high ionic strength conditions by reacting it with highly concentrated (up to 5 M) salt solutions. We explore different electrolyte compositions to elucidate the impact of different anions (NO3-, Cl-, ClO4-, SO42-, C2O42-, CO32-) on the stability of PuO2 NP in the acidic and alkaline pH regime. PuO2 NP aggregation and precipitation as function electrolyte concentration is tracked by a combination of liquid scintillation counting, dynamic light scattering for determination of particle size distributions, and zeta potentials as a proxy for particle charge. At acidic pH, electrolytes containing non-coordinating anions, such as NaNO3, NaCl, and NaClO4 mostly stabilize PuO2 NPs over a large electrolyte concentration range, showing only subtle differences in their reactivity. Other electrolyte anions show a more pronounced effect on the PuO2 NP stability: SO42-, binds directly to the particles’ surface, reverses the particle charge, and precipitates the PuO2 NPs efficiently even at intermediate sulfate concentrations (>0.1 M). In contrast, C2O42- is found to lead to high [Pu] in solution, in the milli-molar range, even at mildly acidic pH (~4). Thermodynamic modeling of the dissolved Pu concentrations using PHREEQC is unable to predict the observed [Pu] in the acidic pH regime, supporting the influence of colloids in maintaining elevated [Pu]. It is noteworthy that the current thermodynamic databases do not include constants for colloidal Pu phases and cannot accurately predict many of the high ionic strength solutions relevant to this work. The mechanisms and models responsible for these observations will need further investigation in the future. At high pH values (~12), PuO2 NPs exhibits classical sol-gel chemistry, meaning that upon destabilization of the colloidal sol, for example by addition of concentrated NaOH, highly porous and viscid PuO2 coagulates are formed that consist of a three-dimensional network likely held together by physical interactions. The PuO2 NP coagulate shows no significant reversibility of the aggregation when contacted with concentrated brines; however, PuO2 NPs can be efficiently resuspended in solution by addition of diluted electrolytes, alkaline solutions containing high amounts of carbonate, or simple addition of water. Especially carbonate is shown to stabilize PuO2 NPs in solution at high pH, characterized by stable colloidal suspensions that are resistant against sedimentation during centrifugation. Thermodynamic modeling of the carbonate system was able to predict an increasing dissolved Pu concentration with increasing carbonate concentration. However, the model was profoundly sensitive to the fixed redox potential and does not include any thermodynamic constants for colloidal Pu species.

Organic colloid composition in variable-redox porewaters within a mountainous floodplain

Redox gradients, often driven by changes in sediment moisture levels in porous, heterogeneous groundwater systems, create dynamic conditions that may promote the production and transport of colloids within natural waters. While much research has focused on the inorganic composition of colloids, the organic composition remains less well understood. Organic matter (OM) in colloids may associate with minerals, complex metal ions, and serve as an electron donor for microbial respiration; therefore, its composition is of high interest. We examined the composition of porewater OM along a redox gradient in a riparian soil located along the Slate River in Crested Butte, Colorado, USA as a function of depth (90, 130, 200, and 350 cm below ground surface). All depths were oxic to suboxic, except 200 cm, where the products of iron and sulfate reduction were observed concomitant with an increase in dissolved and/or colloidal OM, pH, alkalinity, and conductivity. We investigated the composition of porewater using correlated scanning transmission X-ray microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. We observed a change in the OM chemistry from carboxylate-rich at the 200 cm depth (where it was also enmeshed with non-crystalline iron) to phenol- and substituted-aromatic-rich at other depths. Radiocarbon dating revealed carbon in porewater at 200 cm was younger than depths above and below. Soil porewater can flow down into the underlaying gravel bed during baseflow conditions, thus we speculate whether riparian porewater could transport iron- and carboxylate-rich organic colloids into surrounding surface waters through the gravel bed conduit.

Reductive pathways in molten inorganic salts enable colloidal synthesis of III-V semiconductor nanocrystals

Colloidal quantum dots, with their size-tunable optoelectronic properties and scalable synthesis, enable applications in which inexpensive high-performance semiconductors are needed. Synthesis science breakthroughs have been key to the realization of quantum dot technologies, but important group III-group V semiconductors, including colloidal gallium arsenide (GaAs), still cannot be synthesized with existing approaches. The high-temperature molten salt colloidal synthesis introduced in this work enables the preparation of previously intractable colloidal materials. We directly nucleated and grew colloidal quantum dots in molten inorganic salts by harnessing molten salt redox chemistry and using surfactant additives for nanocrystal shape control. Synthesis temperatures above 425°C are critical for realizing photoluminescent GaAs quantum dots, which emphasizes the importance of high temperatures enabled by molten salt solvents. We generalize the methodology and demonstrate nearly a dozen III-V solid-solution nanocrystal compositions that have not been previously reported.

A coarse-grained model of clay colloidal aggregation and consolidation with explicit representation of the electrical double layer

The aggregation of clay minerals in liquid water exemplifies colloidal self-assembly in nature. These negatively charged aluminosilicate platelets interact through multiple mechanisms with different sensitivities to particle shape, surface charge, aqueous chemistry, and interparticle distance and exhibit complex aggregation structures. Experiments have difficulty resolving the associated colloidal assemblages at the scale of individual particles. Conversely, all-atom molecular dynamics (MD) simulations provide detailed insight on clay colloidal interaction mechanisms, but they are limited to systems containing a few particles. We develop a new coarse-grained (CG) model capable of representing assemblages of hundreds of clay particles with accuracy approaching that of MD simulations, at a fraction of the computational cost. Our CG model is parameterized based on MD simulations of a pair of smectite clay particles in liquid water. A distinctive feature of our model is that it explicitly represents the electrical double layer (EDL), i.e., the cloud of charge-compensating cations that surrounds the clay particles. Our model captures the simultaneous importance of long-range colloidal interactions (i.e., interactions consistent with simplified analytical models, already included in extant clay CG models) and short-range interactions such as ion correlation and surface and ion hydration effects. The resulting simulations correctly predict, at low solid-water ratios, the existence of ordered arrangements of parallel particles separated by water films with a thickness up to ~10 nm and, at high solid-water ratios, the coexistence of crystalline and osmotic swelling states, in agreement with experimental observations.

Colloidal Dispersions of Sterically and Electrostatically Stabilized PbS Quantum Dots: Structure Factors, Second Virial Coefficients, and Film-Forming Properties

Electrostatically stabilized nanocrystals (NCs) and, in particular, quantum dots (QDs) hold promise for forming strongly coupled superlattices due to their compact and electronically conductive surface ligands. However, studies of the colloidal dispersion and interparticle interactions of electrostatically stabilized sub-10 nm NCs have been limited, hindering the optimization of their colloidal stability and self-assembly. In this study, we employed small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) experiments to investigate the interparticle interactions and arrangement of PbS QDs with thiostannate ligands (PbS-Sn2S64-) in polar solvents. The study reveals significant deviations from the ideal solution behavior in electrostatically stabilized QD dispersions. Our results demonstrate that PbS-Sn2S64- QDs exhibit long-range interactions within the solvent, in contrast to the short-range steric repulsion characteristic of PbS QDs with oleate ligands (PbS-OA). Introducing highly charged multivalent electrolytes screens electrostatic interactions between charged QDs, reducing the length scale of the repulsive interactions. Furthermore, we calculated the second virial (B2) coefficients from SAXS data, providing insights into how surface chemistry, solvent, and size influence pair potentials. Finally, we explore the influence of long-range interparticle interactions of PbS-Sn2S64- QDs on the morphology of films produced by drying or spin-coating colloidal solutions. The long-range repulsive term of PbS-Sn2S64- QDs promotes the formation of amorphous films, and screening the electrostatic repulsion by the addition of an electrolyte enables the formation of crystalline domains. These findings highlight the critical role of NC-NC interactions in tailoring the properties of functional materials made of colloidal NCs.

Organic Modulators Enable Morphological Diversity in Colloidal Crystals Engineered with DNA

Colloidal crystal engineering with DNA is a powerful way of generating a wide variety of crystals spanning over 90 different symmetries. However, in many cases, crystals with well-defined habits are difficult, if not impossible, to make, in part due to rapid crystal defect formation and propagation. This is especially true in the case of face-centered cubic (FCC) structures. Herein, we report a strategy that uses formamide as a chemical modulator to slow down colloidal crystal growth, which decreases defect formation and yields higher-quality crystals. Formamide forms hydrogen bonds with DNA bases and destabilizes the DNA duplex; in the context of colloidal crystallization, formamide leads to the disassembly of undercoordinated particles (defect architectures) and facilitates their reassembly into structures with the maximum number of nearest-neighbor contacts and DNA bonds. Here, when targeting an FCC lattice comprised of DNA-modified spherical 20 nm particles, formamide promotes the formation of its Wulff polyhedron (a truncated octahedron), never observed before in colloidal crystal engineering with DNA. Importantly, kinetic habits, including tetrahedra, octahedra, icosahedra, and decahedra, are also observed depending on formamide concentration.

Emissive Colloidal GaAs Quantum Dots

Colloidal quantum dots offer tunable optical properties for optoelectronic applications, but the synthesis of high-quality III–V quantum dots (QDs) other than indium pnictides, and particularly GaAs, has remained elusive due to synthetic challenges. Colloidal GaAs QDs have been reported very recently and have shown only weak band-edge photoluminescence. Here, we demonstrate a large-scale synthesis of colloidal GaAs QDs in molten salts, followed by a high-temperature surface treatment with K 2 S, which removes native oxide and enables uniform zinc chalcogenide shell growth on GaAs. These QDs demonstrate bright band-edge photoluminescence and electroluminescence in QD LED devices. Low-temperature spectroscopy reveals a well-resolved exciton fine structure with distinct bright-state splitting and temperature-independent decay dynamics from 4 to 100 K. These results establish a practical pathway for the preparation of high-quality colloidal GaAs QDs from molten salts with potential applications in quantum technologies and optoelectronics.

Solution‐Processed Spin‐Polarized Light‐Emitting Diodes of Colloidal Quantum Wells and Magnetic Nanoparticles

Electrical injection of spin-polarized carriers into semiconductors enables circularly-polarized emission from spin-polarized light-emitting diodes (spin-LEDs). The incredible level of tunability of magnetic and electronic properties in colloidal nanocrystals offers unprecedented opportunities for the modulation of polarization of light in solution-processed spin-LEDs based on magnetic nanoparticles unlike epitaxially grown spin-LEDs restricted by a very limited range of materials for their exploitation, and solution-processed spin-LEDs based on chiral molecules, which do not allow the modulation of polarization in general. Here, it is shown that electrical injection of spin-polarized electrons from magnetic Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles into CdSe/CdZnS core/shell colloidal quantum wells (CQWs) in solution-processed LEDs that allows for polarization modulation of electroluminescence. In this structure, a monolayer of face-down oriented CQWs is deposited as an active layer to avoid polarization losses due to the hopping of the electrons between the CQWs before the radiative recombination process. In this solution-processed spin-LED, the circular polarization reaches 4.5% at 3 K and survives up to 100 K. A net circular polarization is observed at zero magnetic field up to 100 K because of the remnant magnetization of the Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles. This new colloidal spin-LED architecture presents significant prospects for future solution-processed advanced opto-spintronic devices.

Reconfigurable self-assembly of porous anisotropic colloids in nematic liquid crystals

Dispersions of anisotropic nanoparticles in liquid crystalline hosts recently yielded new soft condensed matter states, like the thermally reconfigurable monoclinic and orthorhombic biaxial nematic liquid crystals, with a plethora of unusual phases and phase transformations. Our current study shows that the nanoscale porous nature of colloids with micrometer-range overall dimensions also enables highly reconfigurable orientations and assemblies of the microparticles, allowing for realization of condensed matter states with unusual combinations of low-symmetry nematic or smectic order and fluidity. Much like the anisotropic nanoparticles studied previously, these nanoporous anisotropic colloids exhibit thermally reconfigurable oriented alignment with respect to the far-field director, as well as diverse low-symmetry liquid crystalline phase behaviors. Furthermore, our findings open doors to fundamental and applied uses of low-symmetry molecular-colloidal orientationally ordered states of matter with uninhibited fluidity, as well as liquid crystals with partial positional ordering, like low-symmetry smectics, which could lead to applications in metamaterial designs, electro-optics, photonics, etc.

In situ probing of structure and deagglomeration of SnO 2 colloids via small-angle X-ray scattering

Transforming dry nanopowders into stable colloidal dispersions remains challenging due to the cohesive forces between the nanoparticles (NPs) which promote agglomeration. Effective dispersion and deagglomeration of these agglomerates is a critical process in the formulation and preparation of nanoparticle-based functional materials via the colloidal route. Understanding the deagglomeration dynamics provides information to improve microstructural quality in various applications by enabling engineering of agglomerate size, structure and morphology. However, the deagglomeration process dynamics with respect to the evolution of the fractal agglomerate structures, particularly for very small NPs, is still poorly understood and requires further investigation. This study employs in situ small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) to investigate the sonication-induced deagglomeration of SnO 2 NPs. Electrostatically stabilized SnO 2 colloids with varying primary particle size (6–21 nm) are investigated in a specifically designed in situ cell using synchrotron-based SAXS to study the influence of sonication time and intensity on the nanoscaled agglomerates. Complete structural analysis via SAXS reveals a direct correlation between changes in agglomerate size and structure, size-dependent deagglomeration behavior and a dependence on the overall energy introduced during sonication into the dispersion regardless of the actual power as well as ultrasonic process parameters in case of SnO 2 NPs. The results suggest that control of the dispersion process during ultrasonic deagglomeration results in tailoring agglomerates with respect to size and structure.

Reversible Electron-Beam Patterning of Colloidal Nanoparticles at Fluid Interfaces

The directed self-assembly of colloidal nanoparticles (NPs) using external fields guides the formation of sophisticated hierarchical materials but becomes less effective with decreasing particle size. As an alternative, electron-beam-driven assembly offers a potential avenue for targeted nanoscale manipulation, yet remains poorly controlled due to the variety and complexity of beam interaction mechanisms. Here, we investigate the beam–particle interaction of silica NPs pinned to the fluid–vacuum interface of ionic liquid droplets. In these experiments, scanning electron microscopy of the droplet surface resolves NP trajectories over space and time while simultaneously driving their reorganization. With this platform, we demonstrate the ability to direct particle transport and create transient, reversible colloidal patterns on the droplet surface. By tuning the beam voltage, we achieve precise control over both the strength and sign of the beam–particle interaction, with low voltages repelling particles and high voltages attracting them. This response stems from the formation of well-defined solvent flow fields generated from trace radiolysis of the ionic liquid, as determined through statistical analysis of single-particle trajectories under varying solvent composition. Altogether, electron-beam-guided assembly introduces a versatile strategy for nanoscale colloidal manipulation, offering new possibilities for the design of dynamic, reconfigurable systems with applications in adaptive photonics and catalysis.

Machine-learning-informed scattering correlation analysis of sheared colloids

We have carried out theoretical analysis, Monte Carlo simulations and machine-learning analysis to quantify microscopic rearrangements of dilute dispersions of spherical colloidal particles from coherent scattering intensity. Both monodisperse and polydisperse dispersions of colloids were created and underwent a rearrangement consisting of an affine simple shear and non-affine rearrangement using the Monte Carlo method. We calculated the coherent scattering intensity of the dispersions and the correlation function of intensity before and after the rearrangement and generated a large data set of angular correlation functions for varying system parameters, including number density, polydispersity, shear strain and non-affine rearrangement. Singular value decomposition of the data set shows the feasibility of machine-learning inversion from the correlation function for the polydispersity, shear strain and non-affine rearrangement using only three parameters. A Gaussian process regressor is then trained on the data set and can retrieve the affine shear strain, non-affine rearrangement and polydispersity with relative errors of 3%, 1% and 6%, respectively. Altogether, our model provides a framework for quantitative studies of both steady and non-steady microscopic dynamics of colloidal dispersions using coherent scattering methods.

Colloidal phenomena reflect the interplay between interfacial solution structure, interparticle forces, and dynamical response

The physical and chemical properties of colloidal systems are central to both natural and synthetic processes that enable a wide range of energy and environmental applications. These properties are an emergent outcome of the structure that colloidal systems adopt in response to the interplay of electrical, van der Waals, hydration, and steric forces coupled to the inherent fluctuations of the system. Here, in this study, we review the nature of those forces and show how variations in their relative importance lead to distinct free energy landscapes and consequent dynamic behaviors, illustrated for colloidal dispersions, nanocrystal superlattices, and mesocrystlline solids formed through oriented attachment. We end by discussing the challenges to future progress arising from the need to seamless couple from molecular to particle to ensemble scales.

Hydrogen Adsorption, Reactivity, and Catalysis on Colloidal Iron Carbide Nanoparticles

Supported iron carbide particles have long served as catalysts for CO hydrogenation (the Fischer Tropsch synthesis, FTS) and continue to be attractive. Despite this, little is known about their chemistry. Reported here is a colloidal Fe x C nanoparticle (NP) model system that allows direct observation of surface hydrogen and CO, as well as quantification of the surface H. Dodecylamine-capped Fe x C NPs (DDA-Fe x C NPs) were synthesized through solution-phase carburization of Fe NPs and form stable colloids in low-polarity organic solvents. Treatment of these colloids with H 2 or D 2 produced highly hydrogenated materials, and FTIR spectra of DDA-Fe x C-D n showed that most of the D binds to carbides, with at least four distinct v(C-D) modes. The surface C-H(D) bonds were all reactive, transferring hydrogen to alkenes and other reagents in solution. Titration and ICP measurements showed a 0.17:1 ratio of added H:total Fe, or roughly. 40 H per 1.8 nm DDA-Fe x C NP. Conversely, CO was preferentially bound to surface Fe sites, with FTIR spectra showing a single broad v(CO) that shifted with CO coverage or co-adsorption of H 2 . The DDA-Fe x C NPs were active catalysts for both olefin hydrogenation and the FTS, under mild conditions and without catalyst pre-treatment. The CO hydrogenation reactions yielded a broad distribution of long-chain linear paraffins and olefins. Though quantitative comparisons with typical FTS results are not possible because of our use of sealed batch reactors and other factors, the observations of high catalytic reactivity demonstrate the relevance of this model system to iron-carbide catalysis. DFT calculations on model slab surfaces with varying iron carbide stoichiometries revealed that the thermodynamically preferred surface adsorption sites are C for H ads and Fe for CO ads . A variety of binding sites and binding energies were found for each adsorbate. We are unaware of previous studies indicating that a diverse array of C-H bonds is the primary source of reactive H on iron carbides. Experimentally, the diversity of *C-H sites was evident in reactions with H-atom donors and abstractors of different strengths, from both the reaction stoichiometries and IR spectra. The different surface–H binding energies correlate with the v(C-D) stretching frequencies. Furthermore, these insights into complex iron carbide surfaces and catalysis could assist catalyst design, and they showcase the importance of stoichiometric studies of reaction intermediates.
