Abstract.
We present an attempt to characterize planar surfactant aggregates from the measurement of the diffusion of solvent molecules located between the lamellae. Besides anisotropy, those experiments reveal properties of the bilayers such as their orientation, dimension and also the characteristics of their hydrodynamic modes. Experimental results are presented for two different surfactant systems. Significant differences are apparent.
