Dynamics of hard and soft colloids in confined geometries and on structured surfaces

We investigated the depletion interactions of colloids and hindrance behavior of hard and soft colloidal particles near neighboring walls. We first used numerical modeling to compute depletion interaction strengths for simple geometries which eventually guided our experiments to make interactions hi...
