Ionically charged topological defects in nematic fluids
Jeffrey C. Everts, Miha Ravnik
Charge profiles in liquid electrolytes are of crucial importance for applications, such as supercapacitors, fuel cells, batteries, or the self-assembly of particles in colloidal or…
Screened Coulomb interactions of general macroions with nonzero particle volume
Jeffrey C. Everts
A semianalytical approach is developed to calculate the effective pair potential of rigid arbitrarily shaped macroions with a nonvanishing particle volume, valid within linear scre…
Anisotropic electrostatic screening of charged colloids in nematic solvents
Jeffrey C. Everts, Bohdan Senyuk, Haridas Mundoor +2
The physical behaviour of anisotropic charged colloids is determined by their material dielectric anisotropy, affecting colloidal self-assembly, biological function and even out-of…
Topological-defect-induced surface charge heterogeneities in nematic electrolytes
Miha Ravnik, Jeffrey C. Everts
We show that topological defects in an ion-doped nematic liquid crystal can be used to manipulate the surface charge distribution on chemically homogeneous, charge-regulating exter…
Charge-, salt- and flexoelectricity-driven anchoring effects in nematics
Jeffrey C. Everts, Miha Ravnik
We investigate the effects of electric double layers and flexoelectricity on the surface anchoring in general nematic fluids. Within a simplified model, we demonstrate for a nemati…
