The morphologies of two-dimensional (2D) crystals, nucleated, grown, and integrated within 2D elastic fluids, for instance in giant vesicle membranes, are dictated by an interplay of mechanics, permeability, and thermal contraction.…
We report the results of an experimental study of a colloid fluid confined to a quasi-one dimensional (q1D) ribbon channel as a function of channel width and colloid density. Our findings confirm the principal predictions of previous…
