Interaction between charge-regulated metal nanoparticles in an electrolyte solution
Amin Bakhshandeh, Alexandre P. dos Santos, Yan Levin
We present a theory which allows us to calculate the interaction potential between charge-regulated metal nanoparticles inside an acid-electrolyte solution. The approach is based o…
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…
Interaction of Charged Colloidal Particles at the Air-Water Interface
Matheus Girotto, Alexandre P. dos Santos, Yan Levin
We study, using Monte Carlo simulations, the interaction between charged colloidal particles confined to the air-water interface. The dependence of force on ionic strength and coun…
Simulations of Coulomb systems with slab geometry using an efficient 3d Ewald summation method
Alexandre P. dos Santos, Matheus Girotto, Yan Levin
We present a new approach to efficiently simulate electrolytes confined between infinite charged walls using a 3d Ewald summation method. The optimal performance is achieved by sep…
Simulations of Polyelectrolyte Adsorption to a Dielectric Like-Charged Surface
Alexandre P. dos Santos, Matheus Girotto, Yan Levin
We explore, using the recently developed efficient Monte Carlo simulation method, the interaction of an anionic polyelectrolyte solution with a like-charged dielectric surface. In…
Effect of dielectric discontinuity on a spherical polyelectrolyte brush
Vinicius B. Tergolina, Alexandre P. dos Santos
In this paper we perform molecular dynamics simulations of a spherical polyelectrolyte brush and counterions in a salt-free medium. The dielectric discontinuity on the grafted nano…
