We discuss the static and dynamical properties of a model of short range attractive colloidal systems. Our model is a binary mixture of particles interacting with a modified Lennard-Jones potential that we simulated by molecular dynamics. As previously fou ...
We perform in this paper a kinetic study of the photoelectrochemical responses of nanoporous thin photoactive films. The films were fabricated by by a layer-by-layer assembly of positively charged polyelectrolytes (poly-L- Lysine, pLys) and negatively char ...
Functionalization of colloidal particles based on the use of polyelectrolytes and heterocoagulation was combined with electrophoretic deposition (EPD), with the aim of depositing titania-polystyrene (TiO2-PS) composite particles on Ti6A14V substrates. The ...
Weakly charged solid substrates can be nano-patterned in liquid-like order with large and well-defined spacing by adsorbing poly(amido amine) (PAMAM) dendrimers; highly charged substrates lead to lower spacing due to electrostatic three-body attractions be ...
A thin aqueous film prepared by layer-by-layer assembly of oppositely charged polypeptides on 4-aminobenzoic acid modified porous reticulated vitreous carbon (RVC) electrodes was used with the aim of forming a 3D-ITIES. The film containing a redox mediator ...
A review. Various models of the complex formation between polyelectrolyte chains and oppositely charged macroions are reviewed. In recent years, a great deal of knowledge of the multitude of possible polyelectrolyte conformations at the macroion surface ha ...

Monte Carlo simulations have been used to study two different models for a weak linear polyelectrolyte in the presence of nanoparticles: (i) a rodlike and (ii) a flexible polyelectrolytes. The use of simulated annealing has made it possible to simulate a p ...
