nature of
lipid bilayers.
Lipid bilayers exhibit high
levels of
birefringence where the
refractive index in the
plane of the
bilayer differs from that...

Lipid bilayers are
generally impermeable to ions and
polar molecules. The
arrangement of
hydrophilic heads and
hydrophobic tails of the
lipid bilayer prevent...
- A
bilayer is a
double layer of
closely packed atoms or molecules. The
properties of
bilayers are
often studied in
condensed matter physics, particularly...

Bilayer graphene is a
material consisting of two
layers of graphene. One of the
first reports of
bilayer graphene was in the
seminal 2004
Science paper...

which allows simple electrical characterization of
bilayers but is short-lived and can be
difficult to work with.
Supported bilayers are...

limited mobility, gel
bilayers lack an
important property of
liquid bilayers: the
ability to
reseal small holes.
Liquid phase bilayers can

fusion process, the
bilayers are said to be hemifused. In hemifusion, the
lipid constituents of the

Lipid bilayers occur when
