Ultrafast dynamics in reverse micelles, microemulsions, and vesicles

Recently techniques of solvation dynamics have been applied to reverse micelles, microemulsions and vesicular systems. The dynamical data obtained provides a complement to steady-state experiments and builds an understanding of the details of these systems. Recent molecular dynamics simulations show the power of combined experiments and simulations. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
