The research program of the Soft Matter team encompasses a broad variety of systems such as liquid crystals, surfactants, polymers, colloids and biomimetic systems. We aim at relating macroscopic properties to microscopic structure.
Research Fields :
- Physics of biological and biomimetic systems
- Complex interfaces
- Jamming, plasticity and material failure
- Soft matter for agronomy and environment
- Soft composites
In each area of research we design model systems from commercial or newly synthesized molecules for better understanding of the phenomena.
Various experimental techniques, including light, X-rays and neutron scattering; optical microscopy, rheology, microfluidics, and micromanipulations, are used in order to get information on a broad range of length and time scales.
