Book Synopsis
This unique book aims to expose the reader to a wide range of phenomena occurring when soft matter systems are put under the influence of an external electric field. The book shows how an electric field can be used to affect objects at the submicron scale, and how it controls the phase behavior of liquids and polymers. The main focus is on the basic underlying mechanisms. Some technological applications are dealt with as well.Book chapters are arranged in a logical order, from “simple” systems to more complicated ones. In addition, each topic is covered by the mixed bag of theory, experiment and simulation; and this will give the reader a broad perspective of the underlying physical phenomena.

Table of Contents
Soft Matter Systems in External Fields: Immiscible Liquids in Electric Field - Electrowetting and Interfacial Instabilities; Critical Effects in Liquid Mixtures; Polymeric Systems in External Fields, Polymer Blends and Block-Copolymer Orientation; Ferrofluids.
