Cooperative transport in nanochannels.
Channel transport of different species of particles is viewed usually only in terms of competition and selectivity. In this paper we show that transport of one species may be promoted by the presence of another and that both may even mutually cooperate. We investigate a discretized Markovian model of nanochannel transport via in-channel sites, allowing for the simultaneous transport of several ...
متن کاملParanematic-to-nematic ordering of a binary mixture of rodlike liquid crystals confined in cylindrical nanochannels.
We explore the optical birefringence of the nematic binary mixtures 6CB_{1-x}7CB_{x} (0 ≤ x ≤ 1) embedded into parallel-aligned nanochannels of mesoporous alumina and silica membranes for channel radii of 3.4 ≤ R ≤ 21.0 nm. The results are compared with the bulk behavior and analyzed with a Landau-de Gennes model. Depending on the channel radius the nematic ordering in the cylindrical nanochann...
متن کاملScaling theory of DNA confined in nanochannels and nanoslits.
A scaling analysis is presented of the statistics of long DNA confined in nanochannels and nanoslits. It is argued that there are several regimes in between the de Gennes and Odijk limits introduced long ago. The DNA chain folds back on itself giving rise to a global persistence length that may be very large owing to entropic deflection. Moreover, there is an orientational excluded-volume effec...
متن کاملStatics and dynamics of single DNA molecules confined in nanochannels.
The successful design of nanofluidic devices for the manipulation of biopolymers requires an understanding of how the predictions of soft condensed matter physics scale with device dimensions. Here we present measurements of DNA extended in nanochannels and show that below a critical width roughly twice the persistence length there is a crossover in the polymer physics.
متن کاملStructure of liquid and glassy methanol confined in cylindrical pores.
We present a neutron scattering analysis of the density and the static structure factor of confined methanol at various temperatures. Confinement is performed in the cylindrical pores of MCM-41 silicates with pore diameters D=24 and 35 A. A change of the thermal expansivity of confined methanol at low temperature is the signature of a glass transition, which occurs at higher temperature for the...
