Unfolding Collapsed Polyelectrolytes in Alternating-Current Electric Fields
Pai-Yi Hsiao, Yu-Fu Wei, Hsueh-Chia Chang
We investigate the unfolding of single polyelectrolyte (PE) chains collapsed by trivalent salt under the action of alternating-current (AC) electric fields through computer simulat…
Crumpling wires in two dimensions
Y. C. Lin, Y. W. Lin, T. M. Hong
An energy-minimal simulation is proposed to study the patterns and mechanical properties of elastically crumpled wires in two dimensions. We varied the bending rigidity and stretch…
Surface response of spherical core-shell structured nanoparticle by optically induced elastic oscillations of soft shell against hard core
S. I. Bastrukov, P. -Y. Lai, I. V. Molodtsova +2
The optically induced oscillatory response of a spherical two-component, shell-core structured, nanoparticle by nodeless elastic vibrations of soft peripheral shell against hard an…
Free Solution Electrophoresis of Homopolyelectrolytes
Pai-Yi Hsiao, Kun-Mao Wu
We investigate the behavior of single polyelectrolytes in multivalent salt solutions under the action of electric fields through computer simulations. The chain is unfolded in a st…
Overcharging, charge inversion and reentrant condensation: Using highly-charged polyelectrolytes in tetravalent salt solutions as an example of study
Pai-Yi Hsiao
We study salt-induced charge overcompensation and charge inversion of flexible polyelectrolytes via computer simulations and demonstrate the importance of ion excluded volume. Reen…
Crumpling under an ambient pressure
Y. C. Lin, Y. L. Wang, Y. Liu +1
A pressure chamber is designed to study the crumpling process under an ambient force. The compression force and its resulting radius for the ball obey a power law with an exponent…
