The renormalized jellium model for spherical and cylindrical colloids.
Starting from a mean-field description for a dispersion of highly charged spherical or (parallel) rodlike colloids, we introduce the simplification of a homogeneous background to include the contribution of other polyions to the static field created by a tagged polyion. The charge of this background is self-consistently renormalized to coincide with the polyion effective charge, the latter quan...
متن کاملThe renormalized Jellium model of colloidal suspensions with multivalent counterions.
An extension of the renormalized Jellium model which allows to study colloidal suspensions containing trivalent counterions is proposed. The theory is based on a modified Poisson-Boltzmann equation which incorporates the effects of counterion correlations near the colloidal surfaces using a new boundary condition. The renormalized charges, the counterion density profiles, and osmotic pressures ...
متن کاملRenormalized jellium model for charge-stabilized colloidal suspensions.
We introduce a renormalized jellium model to calculate the equation of state for charged colloidal suspensions. An almost perfect agreement with Monte Carlo simulations is found. Our self-consistent approach naturally allows to define the effective charge of particles at finite colloidal density. Although this quantity may differ significantly from its counterpart obtained from the standard Poi...
متن کاملNonlinear screening of spherical and cylindrical colloids: the case of 1:2 and 2:1 electrolytes.
From a multiple scale analysis, we find an analytic solution of spherical and cylindrical Poisson-Boltzmann theory for both a 1:2 (monovalent coions, divalent counterions) and a 2:1 (reversed situation) electrolyte. Our approach consists of an expansion in powers of rescaled curvature 1/ (kappaa), where a is the colloidal radius and 1/kappa the Debye length of the electrolytic solution. A syste...
متن کاملModeling and Simulation of Spherical and Cylindrical Contact Theories for Using in the Biological Nanoparticles Manipulation
The low Young's modulus of biological particles results in their large deformation against the AFM probe forces; therefore, it is necessary to study the contact mechanics of bioparticles in order to predict their mechanical behaviors. This paper specifically deals with the contact mechanics of DNA nanoparticles with spherical and cylindrical shapes during manipulation. In previous studies, ...
