Controlling the shape and topology of two-component colloidal membranes

Ayantika Khanra, Leroy L. Jia, Noah P. Mitchell +5

Changes in the geometry and topology of self-assembled membranes underlie diverse processes across cellular biology and engineering. Similar to lipid bilayers, monolayer colloidal…

Chiral molecules on curved colloidal membranes

Sk Ashif Akram, Arabinda Behera, Prerna Sharma +1

Colloidal membranes, self assembled monolayers of aligned rod like molecules, offer a template for designing membranes with definite shapes and curvature, and possibly new function…

Strong confinement of active microalgae leads to inversion of vortex flow and enhanced mixing

Debasmita Mondal, Ameya G. Prabhune, Sriram Ramaswamy +1

Microorganisms swimming through viscous fluids imprint their propulsion mechanisms in the flow fields they generate. Extreme confinement of these swimmers between rigid boundaries…

Fragility of surface states in topological superfluid He

P. J. Heikkinen, A. Casey, L. V. Levitin +6

Topological superfluid He, with unconventional spin-triplet p-wave pairing, provides a model system for topological superconductors, which have attracted significant interest t…

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…

Structure, dynamics and phase behavior of short rod inclusions dissolved in a colloidal membrane

Mahsa Siavashpouri, Prerna Sharma, Jerome Fung +2

Inclusions dissolved in an anisotropic quasi-2D membrane acquire new types of interactions that can drive assembly of complex structures and patterns. We study colloidal membranes…
