Molecular insights in aqueous systems : from electrolyte solutions to aqueous nanoscale interfaces

The unique structure and dynamics of the water hydrogen (H)-bond network enable a multitude of structures and chemical reactions in both bulk solutions and at interfaces. The underlying molecular interactions between water and dissolved electrolytes, organ ...

Studies on fluid dynamics of the flow field and gas transfer in orbitally shaken tubes

Florian Maria Wurm, David Hacker, Xiao Shen, Dominique Terry Monteil Jr, Likuan Zhu

Orbitally shaken cylindrical bioreactors [OrbShake bioreactors (OSRs)] without an impeller or sparger are increasingly being used for the suspension cultivation of mammalian cells. Among small volume OSRs, 50-mL tubes with a ventilated cap (OSR50), origina ...

Manufacturing with light - micro-assembly of opto-electronic microstructures

Yongpeng Liu

Optical micromanipulation allows the movement and patterning of discrete micro-particles within a liquid environment. However, for manufacturing applications it is desirable to remove the liquid, leaving the patterned particles in place. In this work, we h ...

Piégeage optique résonant et analyse du mouvement de nanoparticules piégées dans des cristaux photoniques à cavités creuses

Mario Lucien Henri Tonin

Optical trapping was used for decades in biotechnology for a broad range of applications. It can be used for remote manipulation, application of pico-Newton forces and even study DNA processes. Nevertheless, optical trapping setups can be cumbersome. In or ...

Strong Coupling between Nanofluidic Transport and Interfacial Chemistry: How Defect Reactivity Controls Liquid-Solid Friction through Hydrogen Bonding

Gabriele Tocci

Defects are inevitably present in nanofluidic systems, yet the role they play in nanofluidic transport remains poorly understood. Here, we report ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) simulations of the friction of liquid water on defective graphene and boro ...

Laser-Assisted Photoelectric Effect from Liquids

Majed Chergui, Frank van Mourik, Christopher Alexander Arrell, Lars-Hendrik Mewes, José Javier Pancracio Ojeda Andara, Jakob Grilj

The laser-assisted photoelectric effect from liquid surfaces is reported for the first time. Photoelectrons generated by 35.6 eV radiation from a liquid microjet of water under vacuum are dressed with (h) over bar omega = 1.55 eV laser field. The subsequen ...

Inner-shell magnetic dipole transition in Tm atoms: A candidate for optical lattice clocks

Sergey Fedorov

We consider a narrow magneto-dipole transition in the Tm-169 atom at the wavelength of 1.14 mu m as a candidate for a two-dimensional-optical lattice clock. Calculating dynamic polarizabilities of the two clock levels [Xe]4f(13)6s(2)(J = 7/2) and [Xe]4f(13 ...

Liquid Water through Density-Functional Molecular Dynamics: Plane-Wave vs Atomic-Orbital Basis Sets

Alfredo Pasquarello, Giacomo Francesco Leonardo Miceli

We determine and compare structural, dynamical, and electronic properties of liquid water at near ambient conditions through density-functional molecular dynamics simulations, when using either plane-wave or atomic-orbital basis sets. In both frameworks, t ...

Viruses at solid-water interfaces: A systematic assessment of interactions driving adsorption

Tamar Kohn, Anne Thérèse Sigstam, Meret Aeppli, Antonius Magdi Hakeem Armanious, Dominik Refardt

Adsorption to solid-water interfaces is a major process governing the fate of waterborne viruses in natural and engineered systems. The relative contributions of different interaction forces to adsorption and their dependence on the physicochemical propert ...

Study of constrained Brownian motion of nanoparticles near an interface using optical tweezers

Martinus Gijs, Thomas Lehnert, Matteo Cornaglia, Raphaël Etienne Jean Trouillon, Hui Yang

We demonstrate a method to determine the Brownian motion and the diffusion coefficient of a nanoparticle in water in a plane that is parallel to a solid boundary and as function of the distance normal to that boundary by using an optical tweezers instrumen ...
