Colloidal rods in confinement

<p>We study colloidal rods in confinement and under flow on the single particle level using optical microscopy and laser scanning confocal microscopy. First, we investigate liquid crystals in confinement. A mathematical method for calculating distortion energies is developed and illustrated by ap...
