Spatial confinement induces microscopic ordering of fluids, which in turn alters many of their dynamic and thermodynamic properties. However, the isothermal compressibility has hitherto been largely overlooked in the literature, despite its obvious connection to the underlying microscopic structure and density fluctuations in confined geometries. Here, we address this issue by probing density...

We have applied holographic X-ray diffraction from fluid-filled channel arrays for model-independent density reconstruction of spherical AOT/water/isooctane reverse micelles (average diameter σ***Missing image substitution***12–13 nm) confined between planar surfaces. We find the confinement-induced ordering of the reverse micelles to strongly depend on the surface potential of the...
