Stretching dynamics of polymers in microfluidics is of particular interest for polymer scientists. As a charged polymer, a polyelectrolyte (PE) can be deformed from its coiled equilibrium configuration to an extended chain by applying uniform or nonuniform electric fields. By means of hybrid lattice Boltzmann (LB)-molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, we investigate how the condensed counterions (CIs) around the PE contribute to the polymer stretching in inhomogeneous fields. As an application, we discuss the translocation phenomena and entropic traps, when the driving force is an applied external electric field.

Molecular dynamics simulations of the liquid-liquid interface between water and 1,2-Dichloroethane in the presence of weak external electric fields.<div>The effect of the use of 3D periodic Ewald summation and the effect of the simulation setup are discussed.</div><div>A new simple geometric method for designing the simulation cell is proposed. This method was thoroughly tested shown that it mitigates any artefacts to the use of 3D Ewald summation with external electric field.</div>

We interrogate a type of heterolytic fragmentation called a ‘divergent fragmentation’ using density functional theory (DFT), natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis, ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD), and external electric field (EEF) calculations.

With the miniaturization of the NEMS/MEMS, the size effect becomes significant in the nanochannels/nanopores through which fluid flows as well as the interface effect. By all-atom molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, the ion transportation is investigated in nanopores as well as the physical properties at solid-liquid interface. To describe the anion and cation distributions of NaCl solution in vicinity of graphene nanopores, a new MD model was developed, taking thermal vibration of wall atoms, the structure of solvent molecules and ion sizes into consideration. The main peak locations of ion distributions stayed unchanged by changing the nanopore size, the solution concentration and the electric field strength. The ionic currents increased linearly with the diameter and the electric field strength, while it increased non-linearly with the solution concentration.
