On De Gennes Narrowing of Fluids Confined at the Molecular Scale in Nanoporous Materials
Wanda Kellouai, Jean-Louis Barrat, Patrick Judeinstein +2
Beyond well-documented confinement and surface effects arising from the large internal surface and severely confining porosity of nanoporous hosts, the transport of nanoconfined fl…
On the Gibbs-Thomson equation for the crystallization of confined fluids
Laura Scalfi, Benoît Coasne, Benjamin Rotenberg
The Gibbs-Thomson (GT) equation describes the shift of the crystallization temperature for a confined fluid with respect to the bulk as a function of pore size. While this century…
Electronic screening using a virtual Thomas-Fermi fluid for predicting wetting and phase transitions of ionic liquids at metal surfaces
Alexander Schlaich, Dongliang Jin, Lydéric Bocquet +1
Of relevance to energy storage, electrochemistry and catalysis, ionic and dipolar liquids display unexpected behaviours-especially in confinement. Beyond adsorption, over-screening…
Probing the concept of line tension down to the nanoscale
Romain Bey, Benoit Coasne, Cyril Picard
A novel mechanical approach is developed to explore by means of atom-scale simulation the concept of line tension at a solid-liquid-vapor contact line as well as its dependence on…
Effective diffusivity of microswimmers in a crowded environment
Marvin Brun-Cosme-Bruny, Eric Bertin, Benoît Coasne +2
The microalga Chlamydomonas Reinhardtii (CR) is used here as a model system to study the effect of complex environments on the swimming of micro-organisms. Its motion can be modell…
Nanoscale capillary freezing of ionic liquids confined between metallic interfaces and the role of electronic screening
Jean Comtet, Antoine Niguès, Vojtech Kaiser +2
Room temperature Ionic liquids (RTIL) received considerable attention as a new class of materials with fundamental importance for energy storage \cite{Armand2009, Uesugi2013} and a…
