The most common method to characterize the electrical response of a nanofluidic system is through its steady-state current-voltage response. In Part I, we demonstrated that this current-voltage response depends on the geometry, the layout…

We present a "fluid dynamics video" showing results from direct numerical simulations of electrokinetic transport in a binary electrolyte in two systems: (1) next to an ion-selective membrane and (2) around a metallic cylinder. The…

Using molecular dynamics simulations with recently developed importance sampling methods, we show that the differential capacitance of a model ionic liquid based double-layer capacitor exhibits an anomalous dependence on the applied…

As a generic example of a voltage-driven superconducting structure we study a short superconductor connected to normal leads by means of low transparency tunnel junctions, with a voltage bias $V$ between the leads. The superconducting order…

Semiconductor $p^+ - p^- - n - p^+ - n^{++}$ structures with large junction and contact areas are treated as 1 \times 2-dimensional active media, in which self-organized pattern formation can be expected. The local bistable behavior of the…

We study theoretically the nonlinear optical response of a two-dimensional semiconductor quantum dot supercrystal under a resonant continuous wave excitation. A single quantum dot is modeled as a three-level ladder-like system with the…

Electroconvection and its coupling with a morphological instability are important in many applications, including electrodialysis, batteries and fuel cells. In this work, we study the effects of a two-dimensional channel flow on the…

We conduct a theoretical study of the nonlinear optical response of a two-dimensional semi-conductor quantum dot supercrystal subjected to a quasi-resonant continuous wave excitation. Aconstituent quantum dot is odeled as a three-level…

Since its prediction fifteen years ago, electro-osmotic instability has been attributed to non-equilibrium electro-osmosis related to the extended space charge which develops at the limiting current in the course of concentration…

Subharmonic response is a well known phenomena in, e.g., deterministic nonlinear dynamical systems. We investigate the conditions under which such subharmonic oscillations can persist for a long time in open systems with stochastic dynamics…

The state of a 2-D random resistor network, resulting from the simultaneous evolutions of two competing biased percolations, is studied in a wide range of bias values. Monte Carlo simulations show that when the external current $I$ is below…

In this paper we report a novel inertial instability that occurs in electro-osmotically driven channel flows. We assume that the charge motion under the influence of an externally applied electric field is confined to a small vicinity of…

Quasiperiodic potentials and dipolar interactions each impose long-range order in quantum systems, but their interplay unlocks a rich landscape of unexplored quantum phases. In this work, we investigate how dipolar bosonic crystals respond…

Electrostatic theory preserves charges, but allows dipolar excitations. Elasticity theory preserves dipoles, but allows quadrupolar (Eshelby like) plastic events. Charged amorphous granular systems are interesting in their own right; here…

We study flow driven through a finite-length planar rigid channel by a fixed upstream flux, where a segment of one wall is replaced by a pre-stressed elastic beam subject to uniform external pressure. The steady and unsteady systems are…

An electrode contact-related mechanism for the operational instability of organic electronic devices is proposed and confirmed via observation of a water-induced change in charge-injection barrier eights at the…

Bipolar nanoporous membranes and bipolar nanochannels are used in water desalination and energy-harvesting systems that provide clean water and green energy, respectively. The growing need for both requires continuous improvement of their…

The inter-device mismatch and intra-device temporal instability in the nanoscale CMOS circuits is examined from a unified point of view as a static and dynamic parts of the variability con-cerned with stochastic oxide charge trapping and…

Oscillatory dynamics are ubiquitous in biological networks. Possible sources of oscillations are well understood in low-dimensional systems, but have not been fully explored in high-dimensional networks. Here we study large networks…

The current-voltage characteristics of long and narrow superconducting channels are investigated using the time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau equations for complex order parameter. We found out that the steps in the current voltage…
