Dynamics of Uniaxial-to-Biaxial Nematics Switching in Suspensions of Hard Cuboids
Effran Mirzad Rafael, Luca Tonti, Daniel Corbett +2
Field-induced reorientation of colloidal particles is especially relevant to manipulate the optical properties of a nanomaterial for target applications. We have recently shown tha…
Dynamic Monte Carlo algorithm for out-of-equilibrium processes in colloidal dispersions
Daniel Corbett, Alejandro Cuetos, Matthew Dennison +1
Colloids have a striking relevance in a wide spectrum of industrial formulations, spanning from personal care products to protective paints. Their behaviour can be easily influence…
Transient shear banding in the nematic dumbbell model of liquid crystalline polymers
James M Adams, Daniel Corbett
In the shear flow of liquid crystalline polymers (LCPs) the nematic director orientation can align with the flow direction for some materials, but continuously tumble in others. Th…
Tack energy and switchable adhesion of liquid crystal elastomers
D. R. Corbett, J. M. Adams
The mechanical properties of liquid crystal elastomers (LCEs) make them suitable candidates for pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSAs). Using the nematic dumbbell constitutive model,…
Bleaching and stimulated recovery of dyes and of photo-cantilevers
D. Corbett, M. Warner
We examine how intense optical beams can penetrate deeply into highly absorbing media by a non-linear, photo-bleaching process. The role of stimulated recovery to the dye ground st…
