Dipolar Self-Interactions Drive Polymer Chain Collapse
Pratik Khandagale, Gal deBotton, Timothy Breitzman +2
We report that a dielectric polymer chain, constrained at both ends, sharply collapses when exposed to a high electric field. The chain collapse is driven by nonlocal dipolar inter…

Statistical Field Theory of Polarizable Polymer Chains with Nonlocal Dipolar Interactions
Pratik Khandagale, Carlos Garcia-Cervera, Gal deBotton +3
The electromechanical response of polymeric soft matter to applied electric fields is of fundamental scientific interest as well as relevant to technologies for sensing and actuati…
