Electro-oxidation of ethanol represents a key process in fuel-cells technology. We introduce a generalization of the random sequential adsorption model to study the long timescale and large length scale properties of the electro-oxidation…
A polymer chain tethered to a surface may be compact or extended, adsorbed or desorbed, depending on interactions with the surface and the surrounding solvent. This leads to a rich phase diagram with a variety of transitions. To investigate…
