Hydrodynamic synchronization and clustering in ratcheting colloidal matter

Ignacio Pagonabarraga Mora

Ratchet transport systems are widespread in physics and biology; however, the effect of the dispersing medium in the collective dynamics of these out-of-equilibrium systems has been often overlooked. We show that, in a traveling wave magnetic ratchet, long ...

Nanoscale modelling of ionic transport in the porous C-S-H network

Khalil Ferjaoui

To reduce the CO2 footprint of construction materials, concrete producers blend their cement with Supplementary Cementitious Materials (SCMs). SCMs such as fly ash or blast furnace slag are mostly the byproducts of other industries. And while SCMs are chos ...

Adiabatic two-phase pressure drop of carbon dioxide in different channel orientations

Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Rémi Revellin, David Schmid

Adiabatic pressure drop measurements of two-phase Carbon Dioxide (CO2) have been carried out in horizontal, vertical upward and downward direction with a dedicated test facility at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN). A database of more t ...

Mass transport of water vapor and ions from Å-scale graphene nanopores

Wan-Chi Lee

Hydrodynamics at the nanoscale involves both fundamental study and application of fluid and mass transport phenomena in nanometer-sized confinements. Nanopores in single-layer graphene can be highly attractive for exploring the molecular transport of gas a ...

Born to be different: the formation process of Cu nanoparticles tunes the size trend of the activity for CO2 to CH4 conversion

Kevin Rossi, Elena Gazzarrini

We investigate the impact of the formation process of Cu nanoparticles on the distribution of adsorption sites and hence on their activity. Using molecular dynamics, we model formation pathways characteristic of physical synthesis routes as the annealing o ...

Etching nanopores in single-layer graphene with a sub-angstrom resolution in molecular sieving

Shiqi Huang

Single-layer graphene (SLG) membranes, hosting molecular-sieving nanopores have been regarded as the ultimate gas separation membranes, attributing to the fact that they are the thinnest possible molecular barrier. However, the expected attractive performa ...

Multipulsed Millisecond Ozone Gasification for Predictable Tuning of Nucleation and Nucleation-Decoupled Nanopore Expansion in Graphene for Carbon Capture

Kumar Varoon Agrawal, Mounir Driss Mensi, Luis Francisco Villalobos Vazquez de la Parra, Shiqi Huang, Mostapha Dakhchoune, Heng-Yu Chi, Kuang-Jung Hsu, Guangwei He, Wan-Chi Lee

Predictable and tunable etching of angstrom-scale nanopores in single-layer graphene (SLG) can allow one to realize high-performance gas separation even from similar-sized molecules. We advance toward this goal by developing two etching regimes for SLG whe ...

Selection of Water-Soluble Chitosan by Microwave-Assisted Degradation and pH-Controlled Precipitation

Sandrine Gerber, Céline Marie Anne Journot, Laura Camille Louise Nicolle, Yann Lavanchy

In the field of gene therapy, chitosan (CS) gained interest for its promise as a non-viral DNA vector. However, commercial sources of CS lack precise characterization and do not generally reach sufficient solubility in aqueous media for in vitro and in viv ...

Mechanics of Allostery: Contrasting the Induced Fit and Population Shift Scenarios

Matthieu Wyart, Stefano Zamuner, Riccardo Ravasio, Solange Marie Flatt

In allosteric proteins, binding a ligand can affect function at a distant location, for example, by changing the binding affinity of a substrate at the active site. The induced fit and population shift models, which differ by the assumed number of stable c ...

Synthesis of Loop Poly(Methyl Methacrylate) Brushes via Chain-End Postpolymerization Modification

Harm-Anton Klok, Piotr Mocny

Polymer brushes are typically densely grafted assemblies of polymer chains that are tethered via one end group to a solid substrate. Anchoring linear polymer chains via both end groups to a surface results in loop-type polymer brushes. Although loop polyme ...
