Phase Separation and Domain Formation in Multi-Component Membranes: Finsler Geometry Modeling and Monte Carlo Simulations
In this paper, we study a surface model for membranes of three components such as DPPC, DOPC, and Cholesterol. This membrane is experimentally well known to undergo the phase separation and to form the domain structure such as the liquid ordered (Lo) phase and the liquid disordered phase (Ld). It is...
