Ion-mediated effective interactions are important for the structure and stability of charged particles such as colloids and nucleic acids. It has been known that the intrinsic electrostatic repulsion between like-charged particles can be modulated into effective attraction by multivalent ions. In this work, we examined the dependence of multivalent ion-mediated attraction between like-charged colloidal particles on the particle charge in a wide range by extensive Monte Carlo simulations. Our calculations show that for both divalent and trivalent salts, the effective attraction between like-charged colloidal particles becomes stronger with the increase of the particle charge, whereas it gradually becomes weakened when the particle charge exceeds a "critical" value. Correspondingly, as the particle charge is increased, the driving force for such effective attraction transits from an attractive electrostatic force to an attractive depletion force, and the attraction weakening by high particle charges is attributed to the transition of electrostatic force from attraction to repulsion. Our analyses suggest that the attractive depletion force and the repulsive electrostatic force at high particle charges result from the Coulomb depletion which suppresses the counterion condensation in the limited region between two like-charged colloidal particles. Moreover, our extensive calculations indicate that the "critical" particle charge decreases apparently for larger ions and smaller colloidal particles due to stronger Coulomb depletion and decreases slightly at higher salt concentrations due to the slightly enhanced Coulomb depletion in the intervening space between colloidal particles. Encouragingly, we derived an analytical formula for the "critical" particle charge based on the Lindemann melting law.
