Curvature capillary repulsion
Iris B. Liu, Giulia Bigazzi, Nima Sharifi-Mood +2
Directed assembly of colloids is an exciting field in materials science to form structures with new symmetries and responses. Fluid interfaces have been widely exploited to make de…
Curvature-driven, One-step Assembly of Reconfigurable Smectic Liquid Crystal "Compound Eye" Lenses
Francesca Serra, Mohamed A. Gharbi, Yimin Luo +5
Confined smectic A liquid crystals (SmA LCs) form topological defects called focal conic domains (FCDs) that focus light as gradient-index lenses. Here, we exploit surface curvatur…
Curvature Capillary Migration of Microspheres
Nima Sharifi-Mood, Iris B. Liu, Kathleen J. Stebe
We address the question: How does capillarity propel microspheres along curvature gradients? For a particle on a fluid interface, there are two conditions that can apply at the thr…
