This review discusses research developments and applications of isotachophoresis (ITP) to the initiation, control, and acceleration of chemical reactions, emphasizing reactions involving biomolecular reactants such as nucleic acids,…
We review recent progress on the theory of dynamics of polymer translocation through a nanopore based on the iso-flux tension propagation (IFTP) theory. We investigate both pore-driven translocation of flexible and a semi-flexible polymers,…
Microfluidic channels with embedded ion permselective medium under the application of electric current are commonly used for electrokinetic processes as on-chip ion concentration polarization (ICP) and bioparticle preconcentration to…
Based on a topological transition of the symmetry protected topological phase (SPT), an interaction induced topological charge pump (iTCP) is proposed with the symmetry breaking parameter as a synthetic dimension. It implies that the phase…
Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) are typically low in nonpolar/hydrophobic but relatively high in polar, charged, and aromatic amino acid compositions. Some IDPs undergo liquid-liquid phase separation in the aqueous milieu of the…
Intramolecular symmetry-adapted perturbation theory (ISAPT) is a method to compute and decompose the noncovalent interaction energy between two molecular fragments A and B connected via a linker C. The existing ISAPT algorithm displays…
This paper provides a detailed review on applications of ionic electroactive polymer (i-EAP) soft actuators as active elements of microfluidic micropumps, microvalves, and micromixers. The related works that have so far been presented by…
Considering a broad class of steady-state nonequilibrium systems for which some additive quantities are conserved by the dynamics, we introduce from a statistical approach intensive thermodynamic parameters (ITPs) conjugated to the…
We investigate the diffusiophoresis of a non-polarizable droplet laden with soluble ionic surfactant, for which the surface charge arises from adsorption of surfactant at the fluid-fluid interface. Unlike previous studies that assume either…
Trapped atomic ions are a proven and powerful tool for the fundamental research of quantum physics. They have emerged in recent years as one of the most promising candidates for several practical technologies including quantum computers,…
Ion traps offer the opportunity to study fundamental quantum systems with high level of accuracy highly decoupled from the environment. Individual atomic ions can be controlled and manipulated with electric fields, cooled to the ground…
Dripping, jetting and tip streaming have been studied up to a certain point separately by both fluid mechanics and microfluidics communities, the former focusing on fundamental aspects while the latter on applications. Here, we intend to…
Ionic liquids (ILs) are an exciting class of electrolytes finding applications in many areas from energy storage to solvents, where they have been touted as ``designer solvents'' as they can be mixed to precisely tailor the physiochemical…
The ability to manipulate or separate a biological small particle, such as a living cell and embryo, is fundamental needed to many biological and medical applications. The insulator-based dielectrophoresis (iDEP) trapping is composed of…
Separation is a crucial step in the analysis of living microparticles. In particular, the selective microseparation of phytoplankton by size and shape remains an open problem, even though these criteria are essential for their gender and/or…
A theoretical approach is developed to quantify hydrophobic hydration and interactions on a molecular scale, with the goal of gaining insight into the molecular origins of hydrophobic effects. The model is based on the fundamental relation…
A particular mode of isotachophoresis (ITP) employs a pressure-driven flow opposite to the sample electromigration direction in order to anchor a sample zone at a specific position along a channel or capillary. We investigate this situation…
Porous materials exhibit vast structural diversity and support critical applications in gas storage, separations, and catalysis. However, predictive modeling remains challenging due to the multiscale nature of structure-property…
The paper aims at demonstrating communication capabilities of IPT. For this data communication is performed between two modules using the concept of IPT. IPT was deemed to be the best solution to the system houses a multi parameter…
In the presence of surfactants, the interfacial tension (IFT) of microscopic droplets differs significantly from IFT of macroscopic drops for the same surfactant solutions. As a result, IFT between two immiscible liquids can strongly depend…
