Fig. 4. Synchronized spinner ensemble in simulations.

Fig. 4

(A) Simulation snapshot of a spinner ensemble flow field formed at ρ = 0.018 σ−2 at frequency ω = 2πfB = 0.05 τ−1. The nonuniform distribution of the spinner-spinner spacing induces strong flow field nonuniformities. (B) Probability distribution function of the hexagonal bond-orientational order parameter ∣ψ6∣ in the spinner lattices for self-assembled spinners (dashed lines) and spinners of fixed length and bonds (solid lines).
