Sculpting 2D Crystals via Membrane Contractions before and during Solidification
Hao Wan, Geunwoong Jeon, Gregory M. Grason +1
When phospholipids crystallize within the otherwise fluid membranes of giant unilamellar vesicles, the resulting molecularly-thin "2D" solids exhibit great variety in their morphol…

Thermal Preconditioning of Membrane Stress to Control the Shapes of Ultrathin Crystals
Hao Wan, Geunwoong Jeon, Gregory M. Grason +1
We employ the phospholipid bilayer membranes of giant unilamellar vesicles as a free-standing environment for the growth of membrane-integrated ultrathin phospholipid crystals poss…

Shape equilibria of vesicles with rigid planar inclusions
Geunwoong Jeon, Justin Fagnoni, Hao Wan +2
Motivated by recent studies of two-phase lipid vesicles possessing 2D solid domains integrated within a fluid bilayer phase, we study the shape equilibria of closed vesicles posses…
