Measuring Colloidal Forces from Particle Position Deviations inside an Optical Trap
Djamel El Masri, Peter van Oostrum, Frank Smallenburg +4
We measure interaction forces between pairs of charged PMMA colloidal particles suspended in a relatively low-polar medium (5 8) directly from the deviations o…
Anisotropic colloids through non-trivial buckling
Catherine Quilliet, Carmen Zoldesi, Christophe Riera +2
We present a study on buckling of colloidal particles, including experimental, theoretical and numerical developments. Oil-filled thin shells prepared by emulsion templating show b…
Nematic-Isotropic Spinodal Decomposition Kinetics of Rod-like Viruses
M. Paul Lettinga, Kyongok Kang, Peter Holmqvist +3
We investigate spinodal decomposition kinetics of an initially nematic dispersion of rod-like viruses (fd virus). Quench experiments are performed from a flow-stabilized homogeneou…
Kinetic pathways of the Nematic-Isotropic phase transition as studied by confocal microscopy on rod-like viruses
M. Paul Lettinga, Kyongok Kang, Arnout Imhof +2
We investigate the kinetics of phase separation for a mixture of rodlike viruses (fd) and polymer (dextran), which effectively constitutes a system of attractive rods. This dispers…
