Accelerating charging dynamics of electric double-layer capacitors

Megh Dutta, Ivan Palaia, Emmanuel Trizac +1

Electric double-layer capacitors (EDLCs), consisting of an ionic fluid between two metallic electrodes, are electrochemical energy storage devices complementary to batteries, allow…

Beads, springs and fields: particle-based vs continuum models in cell biophysics

Valerio Sorichetti, Juraj Májek, Ivan Palaia +4

Quantitative modeling has become an essential tool in modern biophysics, driven by advances in both experimental techniques and theoretical frameworks. Powerful high-resolution tec…

Huygens' clocks at the microscale

Yaocheng Li, Ivan Palaia, Jinzi Mac Huang +2

Weakly coupled oscillators adjust their dynamics to work in unison: they synchronize. This ubiquitous phenomenon is observed for oscillating pendulum, electronic devices, as well a…

Poisson-Nernst-Planck charging dynamics of an electric double layer capacitor: symmetric and asymmetric binary electrolytes

Ivan Palaia, Adelchi J. Asta, Megh Dutta +3

A parallel plate capacitor containing an electrolytic solution is the simplest model of a supercapacitor, or electric double layer capacitor. Using both analytical and numerical te…

Like-charge attraction at the nanoscale: ground-state correlations and water destructuring

Ivan Palaia, Abhay Goyal, Emanuela del Gado +2

Like-charge attraction, driven by ionic correlations, challenges our understanding of electrostatics both in soft and hard matter. For two charged planar surfaces confining counter…

Electroosmosis as a probe for electrostatic correlations

Ivan Palaia, Igor M. Telles, Alexandre P. dos Santos +1

We study the role of ionic correlations on the electroosmotic flow in planar double-slit channels, without salt. We propose an analytical theory, based on recent advances in the un…

A correlation-hole approach to the electric double layer with counter-ions only

I. Palaia, M. Trulsson, L. Samaj +1

We study a classical system of identically charged counter-ions near a planar wall carrying a uniform surface charge density. The equilibrium statistical mechanics of the system de…
