Polyelectrolytes polarization in non-uniform electric fields
Farnoush Farahpour, Fathollah Varnik, Mohammad Reza Ejtehadi
Stretching dynamics of polymers in microfluidics is of particular interest for polymer scientists. As a charged polymer, a polyelectrolyte can be deformed from its coiled equilibri…
Peristaltic pumps work in nano scales
Farnoush Farahpour, Mohammad Reza Ejtehadi
A design for a pump is suggested which is based on well-known peristaltic pumps. In order to simply describe the operation of the proposed pump, an innovative interpretation of low…
Chain deformation helps translocation
Farnoush Farahpour, Azadeh Maleknejad, Fathollah Varnik +1
Deformation of single stranded DNA in translocation process before reaching the pore is investigated. By solving the Laplace equation in a suitable coordinate system and with appro…
