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…
Achiral symmetry breaking and positive Gaussian modulus lead to scalloped colloidal membranes
Thomas Gibaud, C. Nadir Kaplan, Prerna Sharma +7
In the presence of a non-adsorbing polymer, monodisperse rod-like particles assemble into colloidal membranes, which are one rod-length thick liquid-like monolayers of aligned rods…
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…
