Résumé: In our work we report the measurement of non-equilibrium interfacial tension of polymer and hard sphere suspensions in contact with their own solvent. By visualizing fingering instability (VF) in radial Hele-Shaw geometry, appearing when the solvent displaces suspensions of colloids or polymers, we measure interfacial tensions in function of the volume fraction of the suspended objects, showing that the internal degrees of freedom of the particles drive the low volume fraction behavior (Figure 1). Our results support the existence of a positive tension between miscible fluids, confirm the quadratic scaling predicted by Korteweg [4] for long linear and crosslinked polymers and show a positive rapidly growing tension for hard sphere suspensions up to maximum packing, whose description necessitates a theoretical framework going beyond the classic square gradient model. We rationalize our findings assuming the suspension/solvent interface in local thermodynamic equilibrium, computing explicitly the square gradient contribution to the interfacial tension for polymer/solvent and simple molecular liquid mixtures and proposing a phenomenological model capturing the compositional dependence of the interfacial tension for large concentration gradients. Finally we include and analyze data reported in literature and obtained via spinning drop tensiometry that validate the model and we propose the analysis of fluid dynamic instability as a new tool to probe interfacial stresses.

Résumé: Insertion of two-dimensional (2D) materials in optical systems modifies their electrodynamical response. In particular, the Brewster angle undergoes an up-shift if a substrate is covered with a conducting 2D material. This work theoretically and experimentally investigates this effect related to the 2D induced current at the interface. The shift is predicted for all conducting 2D materials and tunability with respect to the Fermi level of graphene is evidenced. Analytical approximations for high and low 2D conductivities are proposed and avoid cumbersome numerical analysis of experimental data. Experimental demonstration using spectroscopic ellipsometry has been performed in the UV to NIR range on mono-, bi- and trilayer graphene samples. The non-contact measurement of this modified Brewster angle allows to deduce the optical conductivity of 2D materials. Applications to telecommunication technologies can be considered thanks to the tunability of the shift at 1.55 μm.

Résumé: Despite being by far among the most widespread interface on Earth, with a pervasive presence in environment, biology, industry and daily life, physical phenomena at Air-Water Interface (AWI) are still largely elusive. This fact is related to the complexity of AWI with its peculiar electrostatic and flow boundary conditions. In this paper, we present a study of the dynamics and interactions of charged microparticles diffusing at submicrometric distances from an AWI. An interferometric set-up mounted on a microscope gives access to an highly resolved trajectory of the colloid (5-10 nm). Contrary to other established techniques (like TIRM and holography) our technique has the great advantage of allowing the measure of the absolute particle-interface distance. In order to control the electrostatic we use different concentration of salt and different pH in association with pH dependent charged microparticles.Surprisingly new equilibrium distances from the AWI are measured not accounted by established theories. In addition different drags corresponding to different boundaries conditions are found for same combination of particle and AWI depending on the particle’s motion direction namely perpendicular or parallel to the AWI.
