Abstract:We previously reported collective behavior in colloidal aggregates of silver phosphate in H2O2 and under UV
light. Diffusiophoretic interactions between aggregates lead to non‐linear behavior such as oscillations and
synchronization, in which oscillation frequencies increase with H2O2 concentration. The aggregates transition
between schooling and dispersed behaviors with incipient spatiotemporal correlations. We identified a kinetic
model that maps the chemical species that are thought to underlie non‐linear p… Show more
