Abstract: In this paper, we develop a theory to quantify the electrokinetic energy conversion in electrolyte-filled nanochannels grafted with pH-responsive polyelectrolyte (PE) brushes. A pressure-driven flow drives the mobile electrolyte ions of the electric double layer… read more here.

Abstract: In this paper, we study the diffusioosmotic (DOS) transport in a nanochannel grafted with pH-responsive polyelectrolyte (PE) brushes and establish brush-functionalization-driven enhancement in induced nanofluidic electric field and electrokinetic transport. The PE brushes are modeled… read more here.
