Folding Langmuir Monolayers [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2002 The maximum pressure a two-dimensional surfactant monolayer is able to withstand is limited by the collapse instability towards formation of three-dimensional material. We propose a new description for reversible collapse based on a mathematical analogy between the formation of folds in surfactant monolayers and the formation of Griffith Cracks in ...

CHIMIA, 2010 The self-assembly properties of the amphiphilic 5,11,17,23-tetra-carboxy-25,26,27,28-tetradodecyloxycalix[4]arene have been investigated at the air–water interface as monomolecular Langmuir layers and in water.

Semifluorinated thiols in Langmuir monolayers
Journal of Colloid and Interface Science, 2010 A series of semifluorinated thiols of the general formula CF(3)(CF(2))(m-1)(CH(2))(n)SH (abbreviated to FmHnSH) have been synthesized and the Langmuir monolayers thoroughly characterized using surface pressure (π) and electric surface potential (ΔV) measurements.

Collapsed States of Langmuir Monolayers
Journal of Oleo Science, 2016 Langmuir monolayers of amphiphilic molecules at an air-water interface can be compressed laterally to achieve high surface density. However, compression beyond a certain threshold causes the monolayer to become unstable, which may lead to the formation of collapsed states with topographical differences that are associated with the structures and ...

Nonequilibrium Bubbles in a Flowing Langmuir Monolayer
The Journal of Physical Chemistry B, 2005 We investigate the nonequilibrium behavior of two-dimensional gas bubbles in Langmuir monolayers. A cavitation bubble is induced in liquid expanded phase by locally heating a Langmuir monolayer with an IR-laser. At low IR-laser power the cavitation bubble is immersed in quiescent liquid expanded monolayer. At higher IR-laser power thermo capillary flow
