The relaxation, diffusion and translocation dynamics of single linear polymer chains in
confinement is briefly reviewed with emphasis on the comparison between theoretical …

High molecular weight polymer solutions have a powerful tendency to deposit adsorbed
layers when exposed to even mildly attractive surfaces. The equilibrium properties of these …

Two flexible, oppositely charged polymers can form liquid-like complex coacervate phases
with rich but poorly understood viscoelastic properties. They serve as an experimental …

The conformation of DNA molecules electrostatically bound to fluid cationic lipid bilayers is
investigated by fluorescence microscopy. The DNA diffuses freely in the plane and follows …

We have studied the temperature dependence of swelling of a polystyrene brush in
cyclohexane with quartz resonators and ellipsometry. The swelling of the layer, which has …

The motion of confined polymers is measured experimentally between parallel, atomically
smooth solid surfaces, separated by 2 nm. In particular, the kinetics of intercalation of …

The polymeric properties of DNA molecules, which are electrostatically bound to glass-
supported cationic lipid membranes, are investigated. The electrostatic interaction is …

The dynamics of polymers adsorbed to a solid surface are important in thin-film formation,
adhesion phenomena, and biosensing applications, but they are still poorly understood …

A brief review is given of applications of Monte Carlo simulations to study the dynamical
properties of coarse‐grained models of polymer melts, emphasizing the crossover from the …

Short block copolymers in a selective solvent (bad for A-block, good for B-block) are
modeled by flexible bead− spring chains, where beads interact with short-range Morse …
