Active matter alters the growth dynamics of coffee rings
Callegari, Agnese; Andaç, Tuğba; Weigmann, Pascal; Velu, Sabareesh K. P.; Pinçe, Erçağ; Volpe, G.; Volpe, Giovanni (OSA, 2018)We show that bacterial mobility starts playing a major role in determining the growth dynamics of the edge of drying droplets, as the droplet evaporation rate slows down. -
Active matter alters the growth dynamics of coffee rings
Andaç, Tuğba; Weigmann, Pascal; Velu, Sabareesh K. P.; Pinçe, Erçağ; Volpe, G.; Volpe, Giovanni; Callegar, Agnese (Royal Society of Chemistry, 2019)How particles are deposited at the edge of evaporating droplets, i.e. the coffee ring effect, plays a crucial role in phenomena as diverse as thin-film deposition, self-assembly, and biofilm formation. Recently, microorganisms ... -
Controlling active brownian particles in complex settings
Velu, Sabareesh K. P.; Pinçe, Erçağ; Callegari, Agnese; Elahi, Parviz; Gigan, S.; Volpe, Giovanni; Volpe, G. (OSA, 2017)We show active Brownian particles (passive Brownian particles in a bacterial bath) switches between two long-term behaviors, i.e. gathering and dispersal of individuals, in response to the statistical properties of the ... -
Graphene based high frequency electronics
Pinçe, Erçağ (Bilkent University, 2010)Recent advances in chemical vapor deposition of graphene on large area substrates stimulate a significant research effort in order to search for new applications of graphene in the field of unusual electronics such as ... -
Manipulation and control of collective behavior in active matter systems
Pinçe, Erçağ (Bilkent University, 2016-10)Active matter systems consist of active constituents that transform energy into directed motion in a non-equilibrium setting. The interaction of active agents with each other and with their environment results in collective ...
