abstract = {Long and thin, highly charged colloidal rods (fd-virus
particles) exhibit a glass transition at a concentration for
low ionic strengths, far above the isotropic-nematic
coexistence region. The morphology of the system consists of
chiral-nematic mesophases with different orientations. The
dynamics of single particles within the domains is arrested
due to initial caging of the charged rods by their neighbors
through long-ranged electrostatic interactions. The
microscopic dynamics of the orientation texture in domains
is found to freeze at the same concentration where single
particles are dynamically arrested [1,2]. Below the
glass-transition concentration, the initial morphology with
large shear-aligned domains breaks up into smaller domains,
and equilibrates after typically 50–100 hours. Two
dynamical modes are observed below the glass transition upon
equilibration. On approach of the glass-transition
concentration, the slow dynamical mode increases in
amplitude, while the amplitudes of a fast and slow modes
become equal at the glass transition [3-6]. In the first
part of this talk I will present experimental results on the
glass transition, the dynamics below the glass-transition,
and the phase diagram in the fd-concentration versus ionic
strength.The second part of the talk will be devoted to the
flow behavior of fd-suspensions in the glassy state. Such
suspensions exhibit stable inhomogeneous flow profiles,
depending on the applied shear rate: fracture and plug flow
at low shear rates, shear-banding at intermediate shear
rates, and a linear profile at sufficiently high shear rate.
These flow profiles coexist with Taylor vorticity bands
[7,8]. The mechanism for shear-banding in these systems with
a soft, long-ranged repulsive inter-particle potential is
not related to shear-gradient induced mass transport that
occurs in systems with a short-ranged interaction potential
[9], but is due to the classic banding scenario related to
strong shear-thinning behavior [7]. It is shown that there
is a subtle interplay between the stress originating from
inter-particle interactions within the domains and the
texture stress due to inter-domain interactions [8,10].
