Nanoconfined catalytic Ångström-size motors [PDF]
The Journal of Chemical Physics, 2015 Self-propelled chemically powered synthetic micron and nano-scale motors are being intensively studied because of the wide range of potential applications that exploit their directed motion. This paper considers even smaller Ångström-size synthetic motors.

Ballistic Brownian Motion of Nanoconfined DNA
ACS Nano, 2023 Theoretical treatments of polymer dynamics in liquid generally start with the basic assumption that motion at the smallest scale is heavily overdamped; therefore, inertia can be neglected. We report on the Brownian motion of tethered DNA under nanoconfinement, which was analyzed by molecular dynamics simulation and nanoelectrochemistry-based single ...

Phase behaviour and structure of a superionic liquid in nonpolarized nanoconfinement [PDF]
, 2016 The ion-ion interactions become exponentially screened for ions confined in ultranarrow metallic pores. To study the phase behaviour of an assembly of such ions, called a superionic liquid, we develop a statistical theory formulated on bipartite lattices,

Factors Affecting Hydrogen Adsorption in Metal–Organic Frameworks: A Short Review
Nanomaterials, 2021 Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have significant potential for hydrogen storage. The main benefit of MOFs is their reversible and high-rate hydrogen adsorption process, whereas their biggest disadvantage is related to their operation at very low ...

New Structural Anomaly Induced by Nanoconfinement [PDF]
The Journal of Physical Chemistry B, 2014 We explore the structural properties of anomalous fluids confined in a nanopore using Molecular Dynamics simulations. The fluid is modeled by core-softened (CS) potentials that have a repulsive shoulder and an attractive well at a further distance. Changing the attractive well depth of the fluid-fluid interaction potential, we studied the behavior of ...

Comment on "Nonlocal statistical field theory of dipolar particles in electrolyte solutions" by Y.A. Budkov [PDF]
, 2018 The article by Budkov introduces a nonlocal field-theoretic model of solvent-explicit electrostatics. Despite giving a detailed introduction to the early literature on the topic, the article misses out on a series of articles that we published several ...
