The impact of the interfacial Kapitza resistance on colloidal thermophoresis
Juan D. Olarte-Plata, Fernando Bresme
Thermal gradients impart thermophoretic forces on colloidal particles, pushing colloids towards cold or hot regions, a phenomenon called thermophoresis. Current theoretical approac…
On the microscopic origin of Soret coefficient minima in liquid mixtures
Oliver R. Gittus, Fernando Bresme
Temperature gradients induce mass separation in mixtures in a process called thermodiffusion and quantified by the Soret coefficient. The existence of minima in the Soret coefficie…
