Interaction between Heterogeneously Charged Surfaces: Surface Patches and Charge Modulation

Dan Ben-Yaakov, David Andelman, Haim Diamant

When solid surfaces are immersed in aqueous solutions, some of their charges can dissociate and leave behind charge patches on the surface. Although the charges are distributed het…

Long-ranged attraction between disordered heterogeneous surfaces

Gilad Silbert, Dan Ben-Yaakov, Yael Dror +3

Long-ranged attractions across water between two surfaces that are randomly covered with (mobile) positive and negative charge domains have been attributed to induced correlation o…

Ion-Specific Hydration Effects: Extending the Poisson-Boltzmann Theory

Dan Ben-Yaakov, David Andelman, Rudi Podgornik +1

In aqueous solutions, dissolved ions interact strongly with the surrounding water, thereby modifying the solution properties in an ion-specific manner. These ion-hydration interact…

Dielectric decrement as a source of ion specific effects

Dan Ben-Yaakov, David Andelman, Rudi Podgornik

Many theoretical studies were devoted in the past to ion-specific effects, trying to interpret a large body of experimental evidence, such as surface tension at air/water interface…

Revisiting the Poisson-Boltzmann theory: charge surfaces, multivalent ions and inter-plate forces

Dan Ben-Yaakov, David Andelman

The Poisson-Boltzmann (PB) theory is extensively used to gain insight on charged colloids and biological systems as well as to elucidate fundamental properties of intermolecular fo…

Beyond standard Poisson-Boltzmann theory: ion-specific interactions in aqueous solutions

Dan Ben-Yaakov, David Andelman, Daniel Harries +1

The Poisson-Boltzmann mean-field description of ionic solutions has been successfully used in predicting charge distributions and interactions between charged macromolecules. While…
