Shape and structural relaxation of colloidal tactoids

HIGHLIGHTS

• who: Hamed Almohammadi from the Department McGill University have published the paper: Shape and structural relaxation of colloidal tactoids, in the Journal: NATURE COMMUNICATIONS NATURE COMMUNICATIONS of 10/Dec/2021
• what: The authors report the shape and structural relaxation dynamics of colloidal liquid crystalline tactoids. The authors develop a theoretical model to predict the shape of the tactoids out of the equilibrium state, by considering the Hamiltonian of the tactoids in presence of an external flow field. In the experiments the authors take advantage of a microfluidic system with contraction-abrupt expansions design37,38, allowing . . .
