"Inverse Design for Self-Assembly: Patchy Particles, Machine Learning, and the Truth about Entropy"

Dec 19 2019 2:00PM toDec 19 2019 3:00PMNational Science Foundation, Room E3410 (3rd floor), 2415 Eisenhower Ave. (across from Eisenhower Metro station), Alexandria, VAAbstract Professor Glotzer’s research on computational assembly science and engineering aims toward predictive materials design of colloidal and soft matter.  Her introduction of the notion of "patchy particles," a conceptual approach to nanoparticle design, has informed wide-ranging investigations of self-assembly.  She showed that entropy alone can assemble shapes into many structures, which has ...
