Supported lipid membranes with designed geometry
Melissa Rinaldin, Sebastiaan L. D. ten Haaf, Ernst J. Vegter +4
The membrane curvature of cells and intracellular compartments continuously adapts to enable cells to perform vital functions, from cell division to signal trafficking. Understandi…
Dumbbell impurities in 2D crystals of repulsive colloidal spheres induce particle-bound dislocations
Vera Meester, Casper van der Wel, Ruben W. Verweij +2
Impurity-induced defects play a crucial role for the properties of crystals, but little is known about impurities with anisotropic shape. Here, we study how colloidal dumbbells dis…
Height Distribution and Orientation of Colloidal Dumbbells Near a Wall
Ruben W. Verweij, Stefania Ketzetzi, Joost de Graaf +1
Geometric confinement strongly influences the behavior of microparticles in liquid environments. However, to date, nonspherical particle behaviors close to confining boundaries, ev…
Diffusion-based height analysis reveals robust microswimmer-wall separation
Stefania Ketzetzi, Joost de Graaf, Daniela J. Kraft
Microswimmers typically move near walls, which can strongly influence their motion. However, direct experimental measurements of swimmer-wall separation remain elusive to date. Her…
Flexibility-induced effects in the Brownian motion of colloidal trimers
Ruben W. Verweij, Pepijn G. Moerman, Nathalie E. G. Ligthart +5
Shape changes resulting from segmental flexibility are ubiquitous in molecular and biological systems, and are expected to affect both the diffusive motion and (biological) functio…
Lipid exchange enhances geometric pinning in multicomponent membranes on patterned substrates
Melissa Rinaldin, Piermarco Fonda, Luca Giomi +1
Experiments on supported lipid bilayers featuring liquid ordered/disordered domains have shown that the spatial arrangement of the lipid domains and their chemical composition are…
