Confined Multilamellae Prefer Cylindrical Morphology
Jung-Ren Huang, Ling-Nan Zou, Thomas A. Witten
By evaporating a drop of lipid dispersion we generate the myelin morphology often seen in dissolving surfactant powders. We explain these puzzling nonequilibrium structures using a…

Chain-reaction cascades in surfactant monolayer buckling
A. Gopal, V. A. Belyi, H. Diamant +2
Certain surfactant monolayers at the water-air interface have been found to undergo, at a critical surface pressure, a dynamic instability involving multiple long folds of micron w…

Surface charge relaxation and the pearling instability of charged surfactant tubes
T. T. Nguyen, A. Gopal, K. Y. C. Lee +1
The pearling instability of bilayer surfactant tubes was recently observed during the collapse of fluid monolayers of binary mixtures of DMPCPOPG and DPPCPOPG surfactants. We…
