We present a complete reciprocal description of particle motion inside multi-component fluids that extends the conventional Onsager formulation of non-equilibrium transport to systems where the thermodynamic forces are non-uniform on the…
We study the electrophoretic flow of suspensions of charged colloids with a mesoscopic method that allows to model generic experimental conditions. We show that for highly charged colloids their electrophoretic mobility increases…
The mobility of externally-driven phoretic propulsion of particles is evaluated by simultaneously solving the solute conservation equation, interaction potential equation, and the modified Stokes equation. While accurate, this approach is…
We present a linear response theory that establishes the continuum-mechanical origin of Onsager reciprocity in colloidal motion. By decoupling hydrostatic and hydrodynamic stress, we show that Onsager reciprocal relations emerge from the…
We study the mobility of a charged colloidal particle in a constant homogeneous electric field by means of computer simulations. The simulation method combines a lattice Boltzmann scheme for the fluid with standard Langevin dynamics for the…
Designing microscopic and nanoscopic self-propelled particles and characterising their motion has become a major scientific challenge over the past decades. To this purpose, phoretic effects, namely propulsion mechanisms relying on local…
We use the dynamic length and time scale separation in suspensions to formulate a general description of colloidal thermophoresis. Our approach allows an unambiguous definition of separate contributions to the colloidal flux and clarifies…
Asymmetrically charged, nonspherical colloidal particles in general perform complex rotations and oblique motions under an electric field. The interplay of electrostatic and hydrodynamic forces complicate the prediction of these motions. We…
The free motion of charged colloids within ionic solutions and in the vicinity of charged boundaries, is a phenomenon that occurs in various natural, biological and industrial settings. Here, we develop an electrohydrodynamic lubrication…
We measure hydrodynamic interactions between colloidal particles confined in a thin sheet of fluid. The reduced dimensionality, compared to a bulk fluid, increases dramatically the range of couplings. Using optical tweezers we force a two…
The active motion of phoretic colloids leads them to accumulate at boundaries and interfaces. Such an excess accumulation, with respect to their passive counterparts, makes the dynamics of phoretic colloids particularly sensitive to the…
The electrophoresis of charged colloidal particles in fluids exhibiting odd viscosity represents a fundamental challenge in understanding transport phenomena within charge-stabilized chiral active suspensions. Here, we provide the first…
While fluids near a solid surface are at the core of applications in energy storage/conversion, electrochemistry/electrowetting and adsorption/catalysis, their nanoscale behavior remains only partially deciphered. Beyond conventional…
Thermally driven colloidal transport is, to a large extent, due to the thermoelectric or Seebeck effect of the charged solution.We show that, contrary to the generally adopted single-particle picture, the transport coefficient depends on…
Under a thermodynamic gradient, for example, the concentration or temperature gradients, the colloidal particles immersed in the solvent can exhibit a directional migration along or against the gradient -- phoresis, a cross transport…
We study the electrophoretic mobility of spherical charged colloids in a low-salt suspension as a function of the colloidal concentration. Using an effective particle charge and a reduced screening parameter, we map the data for systems…
Nonlinear electrokinetic phenomena, where electrically driven fluid flows depend nonlinearly on the applied voltage, are commonly encountered in aqueous suspensions of colloidal particles. A prime example is the induced-charge…
We calculate the thermophoretic drift of a charged single colloidal particle with hydrodynamically slipping surface immersed in an electrolyte solution in response to a small temperature gradient. Here, we rely on a linearized hydrodynamic…
In this paper, we follow the general idea of the Onsager--Wilson theory of strong binary electrolyte solutions and completely calculate the velocity profile of ionic flow by first formally solving the hydrodynamic (Stokes) equation for the…
Computer simulations are used to investigate the response of a charged colloid and its surrounding microion cloud to an external electric field. Both static fields (DC) and alternating fields (AC) are considered. A mesoscopic simulation…
