| Research Abstract |
By adding guests, the host meso-scopic structures are destabilized owing to the additional entropic and/or energetic interactions. We have been investigated such mixing effects in three relevant systems, (i) functional deformations of vesicle induced by lipid mixing, (ii) ordering dynamics caused by dynamical heterogeneity in meso-scopic scale, and (iii) non-equilibrium dynamics of wetting on structured surface.
