Giant vesicles are artificial objects used to mimic the lipid envelope of biological cells, or plasma membrane, delimiting the cell interior from the outer medium. Among all the systems modeling biological membranes (monomolecular layers at the air/water interface, bilayers supported on a solid substrate, black lipid membranes, etc.…), giant vesicles are the softest and the easiest to change their shapes. Their membrane is a thin fluid sheet with indeed almost no surface tension. Nevertheless, it can be stretched by an external action. The value of the so created mechanical tension lies far below the usual interfacial tensions of liquids. However, with giant vesicles, the necessity to relax this low tension is a sufficient factor to cause m...
