Lipid and protein molecules anisotropically oriented at a hydrocarbon-aqueous interface configure a dynamic array of self-organized molecular dipoles. Electrostatic fields applied to lipid monolayers have been shown to induce in-plane migration of domains or phase separation in a homogeneous system. In this work, we have investigated the effect of externally applied electrostatic fields on different lipid monolayers exhibiting surface immiscibility. In the monolayers studied, lipids in the condensed state segregate in discontinuous round-shaped domains, with the lipid in the liquid-expanded state forming the continuous phase. The use of fluorescent probes with selective phase partitioning allows analyzing by epifluorescence microscopy the migrations of the domains under the influence of inhomogeneous electric fields applied to the surface. Our observations indicate that a positive potential applied to an electrode placed over the monolayer promotes a repulsion of the domains until a steady state is reached, indicating the presence of a force opposed to the externally applied electric force. The experimental results were modeled by considering that the opposing force is generated by the dipole-dipole repulsion between the domains.
