Electrostatics in soft matter

Electrostatics in soft matter.

Recent progress in understanding the effect of electrostatics in soft matter is presented. A vast number of materials contain ions, ranging from the molecular scale (e.g. electrolyte) to the meso/macroscopic one (e.g. charged colloidal particles or polyelectrolytes). Their (micro)structure and physico-chemical properties are especially dictated by the famous and redoubtable long-ranged Coulomb ...

Electrostatics-driven shape transitions in soft shells.

Manipulating the shape of nanoscale objects in a controllable fashion is at the heart of designing materials that act as building blocks for self-assembly or serve as targeted drug delivery carriers. Inducing shape deformations by controlling external parameters is also an important way of designing biomimetic membranes. In this paper, we demonstrate that electrostatics can be used as a tool to...
