Performance of Nanoring-based Transparent Conductors: a Computational Investigation
Gijs Vanoppen, Jef Hooyberghs, Wim Deferme +1
Metallic nanoring networks can serve as promising flexible transparent electrodes. These materials are crucial components in a wide range of applications, including solar cells, to…
Impedance in Periodically Driven Stochastic Systems
Bart Wijns, Branko Meeus, Jef Hooyberghs +1
We study the time-dependent currents arising in periodically driven stochastic systems. In the linear regime of small driving, a closed expression is obtained for the impedance/adm…
DNA handles bias force-dependent looping times
Wout Laeremans, Jef Hooyberghs, Wouter G. Ellenbroek
DNA loop formation is central to gene regulation, and its kinetics depend sensitively on mechanical tension. In both single-molecule experiments and biological settings, this tensi…
Polymer dynamics under tension: mean first passage time for looping
Wout Laeremans, Anne Floor den Ouden, Jef Hooyberghs +1
This study deals with polymer looping, an important process in many chemical and biological systems. We investigate basic questions on the looping dynamics of a polymer under tensi…
Insights into elastic properties of coarse-grained DNA models: q-stiffness of cgDNA vs. cgDNA+
Wout Laeremans, Midas Segers, Aderik Voorspoels +2
Coarse-grained models have emerged as valuable tools to simulate long DNA molecules while maintaining computational efficiency. These models aim at preserving interactions among co…
Enhancing the performance of DNA surface-hybridization biosensors through target depletion
Stefanos K. Nomidis, Michal Szymonik, Tom Venken +2
DNA surface-hybridization biosensors utilize the selective hybridization of target sequences in solution to surface-immobilized probes. In this process, the target is usually assum…
