Interacting rigid polyelectrolytes
The persistence length of charged linear polymers in semidilute solution must increase substantially upon addition of salt. For very long polymers the persistence length increases as the salt concentration to the 5/2 power provided this salt concentration is not too large. In deriving this scaling we correct our previous prediction in light of a recent paper by Barrat and Joanny, and in agreeme...

متن کاملAggregation of flexible polyelectrolytes: Phase diagram and dynamics.
Similarly charged polymers in solution, known as polyelectrolytes, are known to form aggregated structures in the presence of oppositely charged counterions. Understanding the dependence of the equilibrium phases and the dynamics of the process of aggregation on parameters such as backbone flexibility and charge density of such polymers is crucial for insights into various biological processes ...
متن کاملTheory and simulations of rigid polyelectrolytes
We present theoretical and numerical studies on stiff, linear polyelectrolytes within the framework of the cell model. We first review analytical results obtained on a mean-field Poisson-Boltzmann level, and then use molecular dynamics simulations to show, under which circumstances these fail quantitatively and qualitatively. For the hexagonally packed nematic phase of the polyelectrolytes we c...
متن کاملSurfactant controlled aggregation of conjugated polyelectrolytes.
We investigate the interaction between conjugated polyelectrolytes and surfactants in solution and solid phases. We identify multiple modes of interaction and propose a model that accounts for their interplay and pronounced variation in photophysics over a wide range of conditions.
