TL;DR: In this paper, a qualitative interpretation of the breakdown phenomenon is proposed, which is based upon the concept of structural defects of the type of throughgoing pores, whose development is favored by the electric field.

247 - Electric breakdown of bilayer lipid membranes II. Calculation of the membrane lifetime in the steady-state diffusion approximation
TL;DR: In this paper, it is assumed that the BLM breakdown in external electrical field is related to the occurrence of supercritical defects, such an event is viewed at as a result of diffusion-like variation of the defect radius.
Journal ArticleDOI
248 - Electric breakdown of bilayer lipid membranes III. Analysis of possible mechanisms of defect origination
TL;DR: In this article, a cylindrical hole was taken as an example of a defect caused by thermal motion and it was shown that the most probable way of the through-going pore origination is the formation of narrow and deep holes.
Journal ArticleDOI
251 - Electric breakdown of bilayer lipid membranes VI. A stochastic theory taking into account the processes of defect formation and death: Membrane lifetime distribution function
TL;DR: In this paper, the defect number per unruptured membrane is shown to be distributed according to poisson's law with time-dependent average value, where the characteristic time (k 2 + j ) −1 has the meaning of a relaxation time for defect number of per membrane.
