Domain growth in lipid membranes and the budding instability
Jean Wolff, Fabrice Thalmann, Carlos Marques +3
We investigate the growth of a circular domain in a phase-separating lipid membrane and its relation to the budding instability. We describe the in-plane dynamics with a conserved,…
Phase transitions and microphases in elastomers. II. Anisotropy-driven morphologies
Manu Mannattil, David Andelman, Haim Diamant
In swollen elastomers, elasticity can arrest macroscopic demixing between the polymer network and the solvent, producing stable domains of finite size. While previous theories have…
Phase transitions and microphases in elastomers. I. Emergence of stable domains
Manu Mannattil, Haim Diamant, David Andelman
Elasticity often plays a key role in regulating phase separation in physical systems. Recent experiments have shown that elastic effects can be used to control microphase separatio…
The effects of ionic valency and size asymmetry on counterion adsorption
Or Ben Yaakov, Haim Diamant, Rudolf Podgornik +1
We study the effect of asymmetry in solvent and ionic size on the equilibrium properties of multivalent ionic solutions near a charged surface. For a single ionic species in soluti…
Collapse of a single polymer chain: Effects of chain stiffness and attraction range
Yanyan Zhu, Haim Diamant, David Andelman
Chain-like macromolecules in solution, whether biological or synthetic, transform from an extended conformation to a compact one when temperature or other system parameters change.…
Theory of Microphase Separation in Elastomers
Manu Mannattil, Haim Diamant, David Andelman
Inspired by recent experiments, we present a phase-field model of microphase separation in an elastomer swollen with a solvent. The imbalance between the molecular scale of demixin…
