Nanofluidic transport is ubiquitous in natural systems from extra-cellular communication in biology to geological phenomena, and promotes the emergence of new technologies such as energy harvesting and water desalination. While experimental…

We study transport through interfaces in topological nodal-line semimetals, focusing on two geometries: a single interface between two large samples, one nodal-line semimetal and one metal, and an infinite nodal-line semimetal slab in…

The ability of semipermeable membranes to selectively impede the transport of undesirable solutes is key to many applications. Yet, obtaining a systematic understanding of how membrane structure affects selectivity remains elusive due to…

Ion transport through nanopores permeates through many areas of science and technology, from cell behavior to sensing and separation to catalysis and batteries. Two-dimensional materials, such as graphene, molybdenum disulfide (MoS$_2$),…

The mathematical modeling and numerical simulation of semiconductor-electrolyte systems play important roles in the design of high-performance semiconductor-liquid junction solar cells. In this work, we propose a macroscopic mathematical…

Hyperbolic neural networks can effectively capture the inherent hierarchy of graph datasets, and consequently a powerful choice of GNNs. However, they entangle multiple incongruent (gyro-)vector spaces within a layer, which makes them…

Biological ion channels balance electrostatic and dehydration effects to yield large ion selectivities alongside high transport rates. These macromolecular systems are often interrogated through point mutations of their pore domain,…

The consistent description of kinetic and hydrodynamic processes is applied to the study of ion transport processes in the ionic solution-porous medium system. A system of equations is obtained for the nonequilibrium single-ion distribution…

The movement of ionic solutions is an essential part of biology and technology. Fluidics, from nano- to micro- to microfluidics, is a burgeoning area of technology which is all about the movement of ionic solutions, on various scales. Many…

Sympathetic cooling is the process of energy exchange between a system and a colder bath. We investigate this fundamental process in an atom-ion experiment where the system is composed of a single ion, trapped in a radio-frequency Paul…

We report a double-layer electronic system made of two closely-spaced but electrically isolated graphene monolayers sandwiched in boron nitride. For large carrier densities in one of the layers, the adjacent layer no longer exhibits a…

The common description of the electrical behavior of a nematic liquid crystal as an anisotropic dielectric medium with (weak) ohmic conductivity is extended to an electrodiffusion model with two active ionic species. Under appropriate, but…

Recent experimental observations have reported that, rather than randomly distributed, nitrogen atoms may prefer to be located on one of the two sub-lattices of graphene. It has been suggested that such a preference may present a possible…

In living organisms, information is processed in interconnected symphonies of ionic currents spiking through protein ion channels. As a result of dynamically switching their conductive states, ion channels exhibit a variety of…

A plethora of computational models have been developed in recent decades to account for the morphogenesis of complex biological fluid networks, such as capillary beds. Contemporary adaptation models are based on optimization schemes where…

Ion transport within confined environments, like nanopores and nanotubes, is pivotal for advancing a range of applications, including biosensors, seawater desalination, and energy storage devices. Existing research does not sufficiently…

Ion mobility and ionic conductance in nanodevices are known to deviate from bulk behavior, a phenomenon often attributed to surface effects. We demonstrate that dielectric mismatch between the electrolyte and the surface can qualitatively…

Water is an associated liquid in which the main intermolecular interaction is the hydrogen bond (HB) which is limited to four per atom, independently of the number of neighbours. We have considered a hydrogen bond net superposed on Bernal's…

To simulate the transient enhanced diffusion near the surface or interface, a set of equations describing the impurity diffusion and quasichemical reactions of dopant atoms and point defects in ion-implanted layers is proposed and analyzed.…

When an ionic liquid adsorbs onto a porous electrode, its ionic arrangement is deeply modified due to a screening of the Coulombic interactions by the metallic surface and by the confinement imposed upon it by the electrode's morphology. In…
