Molecular Mobility and Confined Plasticity in NEMS Applications
Many modern and future technological applications involve ultrathin polymer films with a thickness below the 100-nanometer scale, where statistical bulk averaging is jeopardized and interfacial constraints dictate transport properties. In such confined polymeric systems, transport properties strongly depend on molecular relaxation and structural phases that deviate from the bulk. This is partic...
متن کاملMobility in geometrically confined membranes.
Lipid and protein lateral mobility is essential for biological function. Our theoretical understanding of this mobility can be traced to the seminal work of Saffman and Delbrück, who predicted a logarithmic dependence of the protein diffusion coefficient (i) on the inverse of the size of the protein and (ii) on the "membrane size" for membranes of finite size [Saffman P, Delbrück M (1975) Proc ...
متن کاملNEMS-CMOS Hybrid Technology and its Applications
Si-based CMOS technology is facing a serious challenge in terms of power consumption variability. The increasing costs associated with physical scaling have motivated a search for alternative approaches. Hybridization of nano-electromechanical (NEM)-switch and Sibased CMOS devices has shown a theoretical feasibility for power management. However, a huge technical gap must be bridged before a tr...
متن کاملA simple and efficient plasticity-fracture constitutive model for confined concrete
A plasticity-fracture constitutive model is presented for prediction of the behavior of confined plain concrete. A three-parameter yield surface is used to define the elastic limit. Volumetric plastic strain is defined as hardening parameter, which together with a nonlinear plastic potential forms a non-associated flow rule. The use of non-associated flow rule improves the prediction of the dil...
متن کاملEnhanced mobility of confined polymers.
Non-classical behaviour, brought about by a confinement that imposes spatial constraints on molecules, is opening avenues to novel applications. For example, carbon nanotubes, which show rapid and selective transport of small molecules across the nanotubes, have significant potential as biological or chemical separation materials for organic solvents or gaseous molecules. With polymers, when th...
