Order and density fluctuations near the boundary in sheared dense suspensions
Joia M. Miller, Daniel L. Blair, Jeffrey S. Urbach
We introduce a novel approach to reveal ordering fluctuations in sheared dense suspensions, using line scanning in a combined rheometer and laser scanning confocal microscope. We v…

All twist and no bend makes raft edges splay: Spontaneous curvature of domain edges in colloidal membranes
Joia M. Miller, Doug Hall, Joanna Robaszewski +4
Using a combination of theory and experiments we study the interface between two immiscible domains in a colloidal membrane composed of rigid rods of different lengths. Geometric c…

Conformational switching of chiral colloidal rafts regulates raft-raft attractions and repulsions
Joia Miller, Chaitanya Joshi, Prerna Sharma +4
Membrane-mediated particle interactions depend both on the properties of the particles themselves and the membrane environment in which they are suspended. Experiments have shown t…
