Tunable transport in bi-disperse porous materials with vascular structure
Olivier Vincent, Théo Tassin, Erik J. Huber +1
We study transport in synthetic, bi-disperse porous structures, with arrays of microchannels interconnected by a nanoporous layer. These structures are inspired by the xylem tissue…
Imbibition triggered by capillary condensation in nanopores
Olivier Vincent, Bastien Marguet, Abraham Stroock
We study the spatio-temporal dynamics of water uptake by capillary condensation from unsaturated vapor in mesoporous silicon layers (pore radius nm), taking…
Capillarity-Driven Flows at the Continuum Limit
Olivier Vincent, Alexandre Szenicer, Abraham D. Stroock
We experimentally investigate the dynamics of capillary-driven flows at the nanoscale, using an original platform that combines nanoscale pores and microfluidic features. Our resul…
Drying by Cavitation and Poroelastic Relaxations in Porous Media with Macroscopic Pores Connected by Nanoscale Throats
Olivier Vincent, David A. Sessoms, Erik J. Huber +2
We investigate the drying dynamics of porous media with two pore diameters separated by several orders of magnitude. Nanometer-sized pores at the edge of our samples prevent air en…
