Schedule
- TBD
Todo
- Finalise pendulum design
- Run experiments
Experiments
- Self-assembly experiment at different speeds:
- Result: self-assembly time distribution for each speed; use in experiments speed with lowest average time to completion + 2 std. dev.
- Test to verify role of seed:
- Passive components, no seed
- Passive components, AND seed
Particulars of experiments (10 trials each)
- Video recording of experiments, probably one frame every second (1 fps).
- Self-assembly experiment at different speeds:
- Run each experiment till self-assembly of one target structure
- All components are seeds
- Passive components, no seed
- Passive components, AND seed
- Use different speeds starting from lowest speed (= when components start to move) and increment speed by 25 rpm till target structure breaks.
- Run each experiment till self-assembly of one target structure
- Assembly of one target structure (Data to be collected: number of individual components, number of compatible substructures, number of incompatible substructures, number of targets)
- The results of the experiment where all the components are seeds and the experiment where there are passive components and a seed should have the same yield
- All components are seeds
- Passive components, no seed
- Passive components, AND seed
- Assembly of two target structures (Data to be collected: number of individual components, number of compatible substructures, number of incompatible substructures, number of targets)
- When there are components (only seeds) enough to make more than one target structure, the incompatible substructure problem is observed
- All components are seeds
- Passive components, no seed
- Passive components, AND seed
- Results to show
- Experiments for setting parameter (shaking speed)
- Time evolution of self-assembly
- Conformational switching eliminates incompatible structures
- Scaling
- Removing the acceleration rump-up phase
- Plot of Gibbs free energy
- Gibbs free energy related to the number of available bonding sites.
