Liquid-crystal enabled electrophoresis: Scenarios for driving and reconfigurable assembling of colloids
S. Hernàndez-Navarro, P. Tierno, J. Ignés-Mullol +1
We demonstrate several examples of driving and steering of colloids when dispersed in nematic liquid crystals. The driving mechanism is based on the principle of nonlinear electrop…

Reconfigurable Flows and Defect Landscape of Confined Active Nematics
Jérôme Hardoüin, Rian Hughes, Amin Doostmohammadi +5
Using novel micro-printing techniques, we develop a versatile experimental setup that allows us to study how lateral confinement tames the active flows and defect properties of the…
