Description

A new type of electrohydrodynamic instability previously found is theoretically studied. It is found that the presently observed instability is closely related to the Felici or Bénard type of instability but not to the Carr-Helfrich one. The present study shows the importance of the carrier injection from the electrodes to explain the cellular domain formation under a DC electric field.
