Symmetrically pulsating bubbles swim in an anisotropic fluid by nematodynamics
Sung-Jo Kim, Žiga Kos, Eujin Um +1
Swimming in low-Reynolds-number fluids requires the breaking of time-reversal symmetry and centrosymmetry. Microswimmers, often with asymmetric shapes, exhibit nonreciprocal motion…
Birth and Death of One-dimensional Domains in Cylindrically Confined Liquid Crystals
Madina Almukambetova, Arman Javadi, Jonghee Eun +3
Nematic liquid crystal (LC) is a partially ordered matter that has been a popular model system for studying a variety of topological behaviors in condensed matter. In this work, ut…
Chiral structures and defects of lyotropic chromonic liquid crystals induced by saddle-splay elasticity
Zoey S. Davidson, Louis Kang, Joonwoo Jeong +4
An experimental and theoretical study of lyotropic chromonic liquid crystals (LCLCs) confined in cylinders with degenerate planar boundary conditions elucidates LCLC director confi…
