Attraction Between Like-Charged Walls: Short-Ranged Simulations Using Local Molecular Field Theory
Jocelyn M. Rodgers, Charanbir Kaur, Yng-Gwei Chen +1
Effective attraction between like-charged walls mediated by counterions is studied using local molecular field (LMF) theory. Monte Carlo simulations of the "mimic system'' given by…
Local molecular field theory for effective attractions between like charged objects in systems with strong Coulomb interactions
Yng-Gwei Chen, John D. Weeks
Strong short ranged positional correlations involving counterions can induce a net attractive force between negatively charged strands of DNA, and lead to the formation of ion pair…
Four-point resistance of individual single-wall carbon nanotubes
B. Gao, Y. F. Chen, M. S. Fuhrer +2
We have studied the resistance of single-wall carbon nanotubes measured in a four-point configuration with noninvasive voltage electrodes. The voltage drop is detected using multiw…
Structure of nonuniform hard sphere fluids from shifted linear truncations of functional expansions
Yng-Gwei Chen, John D. Weeks
Percus showed that approximate theories for the structure of nonuniform hard sphere fluids can be generated by linear truncations of functional expansions of the nonuniform density…
Connecting systems with short and long ranged interactions: local molecular field theory for ionic fluids
Yng-gwei Chen, Charanbir Kaur, John D. Weeks
Structural and thermodynamic properties of ionic fluids are related to those of a simpler ``mimic'' system with short ranged intermolecular interactions in a spatially varying effe…
Different thermodynamic pathways to the solvation free energy of a spherical cavity in a hard sphere fluid
Yng-gwei Chen, John D. Weeks
This paper determines the excess free energy associated with the formation of a spherical cavity in a hard sphere fluid. The solvation free energy can be calculated by integration…
