Hernández Navarro, SergiTierno, PietroIgnés i Mullol, JordiSagués i Mestre, Francesc2015-09-302016-07-062015-07-061542-1406https://hdl.handle.net/2445/67059We present experiments where anisometric colloidal microparticles dispersed in a nematic liquid crystal cell with homeotropic anchoring conditions are dynamically assembled by means of liquid-crystal-enabled electrophoresis (LCEEP) using an AC electric field perpendicular to the confining plates. A nematic host with negative dielectric anisotropy leads to a driving force parallel to the cell plates. We take advantage of the resulting gliding anchoring conditions and the degeneracy in the direction of particle motion to design reconfigurable trajectories using a photosensitive anchoring layer (azosilane self-assembled monolayer), as the particle trajectory follows the local director orientation.10 p.application/pdfeng(c) Taylor and Francis, 2015ElectroforesiCol·loidesElectrophoresisColloidsReconfigurable swarms of colloidal particles electrophoretically driven in nematic liquid crystalsinfo:eu-repo/semantics/article6544662015-09-30info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
