Reluctance of a neutral nanoparticle to enter a charged pore
Sebastian Getfert, Thomas Töws, Peter Reimann
We consider the translocation of a neutral (uncharged) nanoparticle through a pore in a thin membrane with constant surface charge density. If the concomitant Debye screening layer…
Opposite translocation of long and short oligomers through a nanopore
Sebastian Getfert, Thomas Töws, Peter Reimann
We consider elongated cylindrical particles, modeling e.g. DNA fragments or nano-rods, while translocating under the action of an externally applied voltage through a solid state n…
On the Lubensky-Nelson model of polymer translocation through nanopores
Peter Reimann, Andreas Meyer, Sebastian Getfert
We revisit the one-dimensional stochastic model of Lubensky and Nelson [Biophys. J 77, 1824 (1999)] for the electrically driven translocation of polynucleotides through alpha-hemol…
Hidden multiple bond effects in dynamic force spectroscopy
Sebastian Getfert, Peter Reimann
In dynamic force spectroscopy, a (bio-)molecular complex is subjected to a steadily increasing force until the chemical bond breaks. Repeating the same experiment many times result…
Suppression of thermally activated escape by heating
Sebastian Getfert, Peter Reimann
The problem of thermally activated escape over a potential barrier is solved by means of path integrals for one-dimensional reaction dynamics with very general time dependences. Fo…
Single-molecule force spectroscopy: Practical limitations beyond Bell's model
Sebastian Getfert, Mykhaylo Evstigneev, Peter Reimann
Single-molecule force spectroscopy experiments, as well as a number of other physical systems, are governed by thermally activated transitions out of a metastable state under the a…
