Abstract Light scattered at a planar lipid membrane is modulated by an electric a. c. voltage across the membrane. This effect is studied by a schlieren optic method. It shows a large contribution from the bilayer/torus border. From the inner part of the membrane no modulation of scattered light was detectable. Membranes were made from egg lecithin + cholesterol/decane in 0.1 n KCl aqueous solution.
