We investigate the dynamics of a glass-forming 2D colloidal mixture and show the existence of collective motions of the particles. We introduce a mean square displacement MSD with respect to the nearest neighbors which shows remarkable deviations from the usual MSD quantifying the individual motion of our particles. C…

We utilize a vapor deposition setup and cross-diffusion of functionalized chlorosilanes under dynamic vacuum to generate a nearly linear gradient in surface energy and composition on a silicon substrate. The gradient can be tuned by manipulating chlorosilane reservoir sizes and positions, and the gradient profile is i…
