Interplay between adsorption and hydrodynamics in nanochannels: towards tunable membranes
Sela Samin, René van Roij
We study how adsorption of a near-critical binary mixture in a nanopore is modified by flow inside the pore. We identify three types of steady states upon variation of the pore Péc…
Reversible Pore Gating in Aqueous Mixtures via External Potential
Sela Samin, Yoav Tsori
We examine theoretically porous membranes in aqueous mixtures. We show that large membrane pores can be reversibly gated from `off' (co-solvent-rich, poor conductor of ions and oth…
Dense ionic fluids confined in planar capacitors: in- and out-of-plane structure from classical density functional theory
Andreas Härtel, Sela Samin, Rene van Roij
The ongoing scientific interest in the properties and structure of electric double layers (EDLs) stems from their pivotal role in (super)capacitive energy storage, energy harvestin…
Tuning colloid-interface interactions by salt partitioning
Jeffrey Everts, Sela Samin, René van Roij
We show that the interaction of an oil-dispersed colloidal particle with an oil-water interface is highly tunable from attractive to repulsive, either by varying the sign of the co…
A Landau-de Gennes theory for hard colloidal rods: defects and tactoids
Jeffrey Everts, Melle Punter, Sela Samin +2
We construct a phenomenological Landau-de Gennes theory for hard colloidal rods by performing an order parameter expansion of the chemical-potential dependent grand potential. By f…
