Optical mapping of phases and phase boundaries in nanoconfined fluids
Lauriane Pierrot Deseilligny, Susan Perkin
In confined space, deviations from bulk structure and properties are expected due to additional thermodynamic variables. In particular, composition variations arising from surface…
Wave mechanics in an ionic liquid mixture
Timothy S. Groves, Susan Perkin
Experimental measurements of interactions in ionic liquids and concentrated electrolytes over the past decade or so have revealed simultaneous monotonic and oscillatory decay modes…
The influence of mechanical deformations on surface force measurements
Romain Lhermerout, Susan Perkin
Experimental investigations of surface forces generally involve two solid bodies of simple and well-defined geometry interacting across a medium. Direct measurement of their surfac…
Solidification and superlubricity with molecular alkane films
Alexander M. Smith, James E. Hallett, Susan Perkin
Hydrocarbon films confined between smooth mica surfaces have long provided an experimental playground for model studies of structure and dynamics of confined liquids. However funda…
Interfacial structure and boundary lubrication of a dicationic ionic liquid
Carla S. Perez-Martinez, Susan Perkin
We report measurements of the normal surface forces and friction forces between two mica surfaces separated by a nano-film of dicationic ionic liquid using a Surface Force Balance.…
Surface forces generated by the action of electric fields across liquid films
Carla Perez-Martinez, Susan Perkin
We explore the force generation and surface interactions arising when electric fields are applied across fluid films. Using a surface force balance (SFB) we measure directly the fo…
