Abstract
Insoluble monolayers in the presence of dipolar forces have been predicted to fcrm lamellar and hexagonal supercrystal phases at the liquid-gas or liquid-expanded — liquid-condensed transition. We study here the dynamics of the initial stages of the formation of these supercrystal phases including the flow induced in the supporting liquid in three different geometries a) free films b) films on a solid c) film on a bulk liquid phase.
