Planar Lipid Bilayers as Light Guides

Abstract The light guide properties of planar lipid bilayers are discussed and experimentally verified. The interaction between the light and the constituents of the bilayer is substantially increased since the light path is as large as the diameter of the film, e.g. of the order of several millimeters. The influence of electric fields on the bilayer and on the bilayer-torus transition region has been investigated. Field induced generation of scattering centers is detected in solvent containing bilayers.
