Rectified ion transport through concentration gradient in homogeneous silica nanochannels.
We investigate the ionic rectifying effect through 4 and 20 nm thick silica nanochannels placed between two ionic solutions of different concentrations. The effect was observed when only a single side of the channel has electric double-layer overlap. The calculation based on Poisson-Nernst-Planck (PNP) theory and a simplified model suggests that the phenomenon result from the accumulation and d...
متن کاملMolecular transport directed via patterned functionalized surfaces.
DOI: 10.1002/adma.201003705 Advances in micro and nanofabrication, coupled with recent developments in polymer science, provide powerful tools for fabricating functional surfaces with high degrees of spatial and chemical control. Numerous patterning strategies including conventional lithographic methods and modern printing strategies can be coupled with emerging chemistries to grow polymers int...
متن کاملCorrelating Electron Transport and Molecular Structure in Organic Thin Films**
Understanding how electrons travel through organic matter is important in designing materials for organic microelectronics[1] and understanding biological electron-transport processes.[2, 3] Herein we describe a simple experimental procedure to measure rates of electron transport across organic thin films having a range of structures, compare the data for several types of films, and outline a t...
متن کاملDrying of poloxamer hydrogel films.
The drying of hydrogel films formed by Poloxamer 407 poly(ethylene oxide)-poly(propylene oxide)-poly(ethylene oxide) amphiphilic block copolymer was investigated at various air relative humidity (RH) conditions ranging from 11 to 97%. Initially, the amount of water lost increased linearly with the drying time. After this linear region (stage I), a nonlinear behavior was observed (stage II). The...
متن کاملAnisotropic hydrogel thickness gradient films derivatized to yield three-dimensional composite materials.
We report the preparation of in-plane density gradients of amino-terminated molecules and gold particles through derivatization of laterally varying thickness gradients of poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) or poly(acrylamide) (PAAm) films. PAA and PAAm gradients were formed by Zn(II)-catalyzed electropolymerization of acrylic acid (AA) or acrylamide (AAm) in the presence of an in-plane electrochemical p...
