We report on the short-time dynamics in colloidal mixtures made up of monomers and dimers highly confined between two glass-plates. At low concentrations, the experimental measurements of colloidal motion agree well with the solution of the Navier-Stokes equation at low Reynolds numbers, which takes into account the increase of the drag force on each particle due to wall-particle hydrodynamic forces. We find that the ratio of the short-time diffusion coefficients of the monomer and that of the center of mass of the dimer remains independent of both the total packing fraction and the dimer molar fraction up to concentrations near to the crystallization transition. The same physical scenario is observed for the ratio between the parallel and perpendicular components of the short-time diffusion coefficients of the dimer. This dynamical behavior is corroborated by means of Molecular Dynamics computer simulations that explicitly include the particle-particle hydrodynamic forces induced by the solvent. Thus, our results point out toward that the effects of the particle-particle hydrodynamic interactions on the diffusion coefficients are identical and, thus, factorable in both species. |
