Effective surface motion on a reactive cylinder of particles that perform intermittent bulk diffusion.
In many biological and small scale technological applications particles may transiently bind to a cylindrical surface. In between two binding events the particles diffuse in the bulk, thus producing an effective translation on the cylindrical surface. We here derive the effective motion on the surface allowing for additional diffusion on the cylindrical surface itself. We find explicit solution...
متن کاملBulk-mediated surface diffusion along a cylinder: Propagators and crossovers.
We consider the effective motion along a cylinder of a particle that freely diffuses in the bulk and intermittently binds to the cylinder. From an exact approach we derive the different regimes of the effective motion along the cylinder characterized by physical rates for binding/unbinding and the bulk diffusivity. We obtain a transient regime of superdiffusion and, interestingly, a saturation ...
متن کاملBulk-mediated diffusion on a planar surface: full solution.
We consider the effective surface motion of a particle that intermittently unbinds from a planar surface and performs bulk excursions. Based on a random-walk approach, we derive the diffusion equations for surface and bulk diffusion including the surface-bulk coupling. From these exact dynamic equations, we analytically obtain the propagator of the effective surface motion. This approach allows...
متن کاملDiffusion of particles, adsorbed on a reconstructive surface
The influence of surface reconstruction on diffusion of adsorbed particles is investigated in the framework of simple two-position symmetrical model. Exact expressions for the free energy and diffusion coefficient are obtained neglecting the lateral interaction between the adsorbed particles. The critical behavior of the system is described by an anisotropic Ising spin model. The coverage depen...
متن کاملOn the motion of a phase interface by surface diffusion
Mullins, In a series of papers, developed a surface dynamics for phase interfaces whose evolution 1s controlled by mass diffusion within the interface. It Is our purpose here to embed Mullins's theory within a general framework based on balance laws for mass and capillary forces In conjunction with a version of the second lav, appropriate to a purely mechanical theory, which asserts that the ra...
