Interaction and adhesion properties of polyelectrolyte multilayers (2005)
Gong, H.E., Garcia Turiel, J., Vasilev, K., Vinogradova, O.I.
Capillary bridging and long-range attractive forces in a mean-field approach (2004)
Andrienko, D., Patricio, P., Vinogradova, O. I.
When a mixture is confined, one of the phases can condense out. This condensate, which is otherwise metastable in the bulk, is stabilized by the presence of surfaces. In a sphere-plane geometry,...
Young's modulus of polyelectrolyte multilayers from microcapsule swelling (2004)
Vinogradova, O. I., Andrienko, D., Lulevich, V. V., Nordschild, S., Sukhorukov, G. B.
Young's modulus of polyelectrolyte multilayers from microcapsule swelling (2003)
Vinogradova, O. I., Andrienko, D., Lulevich, V. V., Nordschild, S., Sukhorukov, G. B.
We measure Young's modulus of a free polyelectrolyte multilayer film by studying osmotically induced swelling of polyelectrolyte multilayer microcapsules filled with the polyelectrolyte solution....
Elasticity of polyelectrolyte multilayer microcapsules (2003)
Lulevich, V. V., Andrienko, D., Vinogradova, O. I.
We present a novel approach to probe elastic properties of polyelectrolyte multilayer microcapsules. The method is based on measurements of the capsule load-deformation curves with the atomic force...
