Feedback-controlled solute transport through chemo-responsive polymer membranes

Sebastian Milster, Won Kyu Kim, Joachim Dzubiella

Polymer membranes are typically assumed to be inert and nonresponsive to the flux and density of the permeating particles in transport processes. Here, we study theoretically the c…

Multidimensional entropic bound: Estimator of entropy production for general Langevin dynamics with an arbitrary time-dependent protocol

Sangyun Lee, Dong-Kyum Kim, Jong-Min Park +3

Entropy production (EP) is a key quantity in thermodynamics, and yet measuring EP has remained a challenging task. Here we introduce an EP estimator, called multidimensional entrop…

Active diffusion of self-propelled particles in flexible polymer networks

Yeongjin Kim, Sungmin Joo, Won Kyu Kim +1

Biopolymer networks having a meshwork topology, e.g., extracellular matrix and mucus gels, are ubiquitous. It is an open question to understand how self-propelled agents such as Ja…

Proton-transfer spectroscopy beyond the normal-mode scenario

Florian N. Brünig, Paul Hillmann, Won Kyu Kim +2

A stochastic theory is developed to predict the spectral signature of proton-transfer processes and applied to infrared spectra computed from ab initio molecular-dynamics simulatio…

Nanochannels and nanodroplets in polymer membranes controlling ionic transport

Matej Kanduč, Rafael Roa, Won Kyu Kim +1

Polymer materials with low water uptake exhibit a highly heterogeneous interior, characterized by water clusters in the form of nanodroplets and nanochannels. Here, based on our re…

Transport in polymer membranes beyond linear response: Controlling permselectivity by the driving force

Won Kyu Kim, Sebastian Milster, Rafael Roa +2

In the popular solution-diffusion picture, the membrane permeability is defined as the product of the partition ratio and the diffusivity of penetrating solutes inside the membrane…
