Chiral edge fluctuations of colloidal membranes
Leroy L. Jia, Mark J. Zakhary, Zvonimir Dogic +2
We study edge fluctuations of a flat colloidal membrane comprised of a monolayer of aligned filamentous viruses. Experiments reveal that a peak in the spectrum of the in-plane edge…
Wrinkling of a thin film on a nematic liquid crystal elastomer
Harsh Soni, Robert A. Pelcovits, Thomas R. Powers
Wrinkles commonly develop in a thin film deposited on a soft elastomer substrate when the film is subject to compression. Motivated by recent experiments [Agrawal et al., Soft Matt…
Interaction of chiral rafts in self-assembled colloidal membranes
Sheng Xie, Robert A. Pelcovits, Michael F. Hagan
Colloidal membranes are monolayer assemblies of rodlike particles that capture the long-wavelength properties of lipid bilayer membranes on the colloidal scale. Recent experiments…
