Soap films as two-dimensional fluids: Diffusion and flow fields
Skanda Vivek, Eric R. Weeks
We observe tracer particles diffusing in soap films to measure the two-dimensional (2D) viscous properties of the films. We make soap films with a variety of water-glycerol mixture…

Dynamic facilitation observed near the colloidal glass transition
Scott V. Franklin, Eric R. Weeks
We present experimental confirmation of dynamic facilitation in monodisperse and bidisperse colloidal suspensions near the glass transition volume fraction. Correlations in particl…

Boundary mobility controls glassiness of confined colloidal liquids
Gary L. Hunter, Kazem V. Edmond, Eric R. Weeks
We use colloidal suspensions encapsulated in emulsion droplets to model confined glass-forming liquids with tunable boundary mobility. We show dynamics in these idealized systems a…
