Thermodynamic equilibrium of binary mixtures on curved surfaces
Piermarco Fonda, Melissa Rinaldin, Daniela J. Kraft +1
We study the global influence of curvature on the free energy landscape of two-dimensional binary mixtures confined on closed surfaces. Starting from a generic effective free energ…
Slip length dependent propulsion speed of catalytic colloidal swimmers near walls
Stefania Ketzetzi, Joost de Graaf, Rachel P. Doherty +1
Catalytic colloidal swimmers that propel due to self-generated fluid flows exhibit strong affinity for surfaces. We here report experimental measurements of significantly different…
Colloidal supported lipid bilayers for self-assembly
Melissa Rinaldin, Ruben W. Verweij, Indrani Chakraborty +1
The use of colloidal supported lipid bilayers (CSLBs) has recently been extended to create colloidal joints, that - in analogy to their macroscopic counterparts - can flexibly conn…
Interface geometry of binary mixtures on curved substrates
Piermarco Fonda, Melissa Rinaldin, Daniela J. Kraft +1
Motivated by recent experimental work on multicomponent lipid membranes supported by colloidal scaffolds, we report an exhaustive theoretical investigation of the equilibrium confi…
Geometric pinning and antimixing in scaffolded lipid vesicles
Melissa Rinaldin, Piermarco Fonda, Luca Giomi +1
Unravelling the physical mechanisms behind the organisation of lipid domains is a central goal in cell biology and membrane biophysics. Previous studies on cells and model lipid bi…
