Curvature-Driven Molecular Flow on Membrane Surface
This work presents a mathematical model for the localization of multiple species of diffusion molecules on membrane surfaces. Morphological change of bilayer membrane in vivo is generally modulated by proteins. Most of these modulations are associated with the localization of related proteins in the crowded lipid environments. We start with the energetic description of the distributions of mole...
متن کاملApplications, Surface Modification and Functionalization of Nickel Nanorods
The growing number of nanoparticle applications in science and industry is leading to increasingly complex nanostructures that fulfill certain tasks in a specific environment. Nickel nanorods already possess promising properties due to their magnetic behavior and their elongated shape. The relevance of this kind of nanorod in a complex measurement setting can be further improved by suitable sur...
متن کاملAg-Au-Ag heterometallic nanorods formed through directed anisotropic growth.
Heterostructured nanocrystals containing multiple components are attracting attention due to not only their multifunctional properties but also new features arising from the effective coupling of different domains.1,2 Numerous semiconducting heterostructures have been synthesized by gas-phase deposition and are being used for the miniaturization of electronic and photonic circuits.3 Metallic he...
متن کاملSurface Driven Bulk Reconstruction of Gold Nanorods
The properties of metallic clusters of various shapes, on the nanometer length scale, can be dramatically different from the corresponding bulk material due to their very large surface-to-volume ratio. The unique optical and mechanical properties of such nanoclusters hold great promise for the development of nanotechnology. Gold nanoclusters, for example, have found application in such diverse ...
متن کاملSurface-driven bulk reorganization of gold nanorods.
Molecular dynamic simulations are used to study the structural stability of gold nanorods upon heating. We show that the global stability of the rod is governed by the free energetics of its surface. In particular, an instability of surface facets nucleates a bulk instability that leads to both surface and bulk reorganization of the rod. The surface reorganizes to form new, more stable, {111} f...
