Abstract
We investigate the adsorption of neutral polyampholytes on charged nanopatterned surfaces. The surfaces have charged domains but are overall neutral. To perform efficient simulations, we use an approach which combines the explicit form of the interaction potential between the polyampholyte monomers and the surface with a 3d Ewald summation method. We observe that the amount of adsorption and the structure of the adsorbed polyampholytes depend strongly on the surface pattern, the relative size o ...
We investigate the adsorption of neutral polyampholytes on charged nanopatterned surfaces. The surfaces have charged domains but are overall neutral. To perform efficient simulations, we use an approach which combines the explicit form of the interaction potential between the polyampholyte monomers and the surface with a 3d Ewald summation method. We observe that the amount of adsorption and the structure of the adsorbed polyampholytes depend strongly on the surface pattern, the relative size of the surface domains, and the charge distribution along the polyampholyte backbone. ...
