Sculpting stable structures in pure liquids
Tadej Emeršič, Rui Zhang, Žiga Kos +4
Pure liquids in thermodynamic equilibrium are structurally homogeneous. In liquid crystals, flow and light pulses are used to create reconfigurable domains with polar order. Moreov…

Microfluidic control over topological states in channel-confined nematic flows
Simon Čopar, Žiga Kos, Tadej Emeršič +1
Compared to isotropic liquids, orientational order of nematic liquid crystals makes their rheological properties more involved, and thus requires fine control of the flow parameter…

Reconfigurable knots and links in chiral nematic colloids
Uroš Tkalec, Miha Ravnik, Simon Čopar +2
Tying knots and linking microscopic loops of polymers, macromolecules, or defect lines in complex materials is a challenging task for material scientists. We demonstrate the knotti…
