Abstract

The effects of electrostatic interactions on steric repulsion and curvature elasticity are considered for dilute multimembrane systems as a function of the electrolyte strength, surface charge and inter-membrane spacing. In the strong electrolyte limit, the electrostatic interactions are screened and the steric repulsion dominates. For weak electrolytes, the electrostatic interactions cut-off the out-of-plane undulations and change significantly the membrane bending constant in qualitative agreement with recent experiments.

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
