Self-assembling nanoparticles systems: influence of particles shape and concentration — •Elena Pyanzina — Ural Federal University, Lenin av. 51, Ekaterinburg, 620000, Russia

The process of self-assembly is a key to design and control various systems, and as such it has recently become a subject of interest in physics, chemistry and biology [M. Nakata et al., Science, 2007]. Self-assembling building blocks might be of different nature and size might also form clusters of almost arbitrary topology. In the present study we focus on one two type of building blocks: superquadrics (namely, elongated spherocylinders) and discs, that can form different type of clusters. We present the analytical model for calculation structural properties and investigate them as functions of particles shape and concentration. Our conclusions are supported by an extensive comparison of the theoretical predictions to the results of computer simulations.
