  Title Transition from single-file to two-dimensional diffusion of interacting particles in a quasi-one-dimensional channel Type A1 Journal article
  Year (down) 2012 Publication Physical review : E : statistical, nonlinear, and soft matter physics Abbreviated Journal Phys Rev E  
  Volume 85 Issue 3:1 Pages 031147-031147,12  
  Keywords A1 Journal article; Condensed Matter Theory (CMT)  
  Abstract Diffusive properties of a monodisperse system of interacting particles confined to a quasi-one-dimensional channel are studied using molecular dynamics simulations. We calculate numerically the mean-squared displacement (MSD) and investigate the influence of the width of the channel (or the strength of the confinement potential) on diffusion in finite-size channels of different shapes (i.e., straight and circular). The transition from single-file diffusion to the two-dimensional diffusion regime is investigated. This transition [ regarding the calculation of the scaling exponent (alpha) of the MSD <Delta x(2)(t)> proportional to t(alpha)] as a function of the width of the channel is shown to change depending on the channel's confinement profile. In particular, the transition can be either smooth (i.e., for a parabolic confinement potential) or rather sharp (i.e., for a hard-wall potential), as distinct from infinite channels where this transition is abrupt. This result can be explained by qualitatively different distributions of the particle density for the different confinement potentials.

  Title Dispersion relations for circular single and double dusty plasma chains Type A1 Journal article
  Year (down) 2011 Publication Physics of plasmas Abbreviated Journal Phys Plasmas  
  Volume 18 Issue 10 Pages 103709,1-103709,10  
  Keywords A1 Journal article; Condensed Matter Theory (CMT)  
  Abstract We derive dispersion relations for a system of identical particles confined in a two-dimensional annular harmonic well and which interact through a Yukawa potential, e.g., a dusty plasma ring. When the particles are in a single chain (i.e., a one-dimensional ring), we find a longitudinal acoustic mode and a transverse optical mode which show approximate agreement with the dispersion relation for a straight configuration for large radii of the ring. When the radius decreases, the dispersion relations modify: there appears an anticrossing of the modes near the crossing point resulting in a frequency gap between the lower and upper branches of the modified dispersion relations. For the double chain (i.e., a two-dimensional zigzag configuration), the dispersion relation has four branches: longitudinal acoustic and optical and transverse acoustic and optical.

  Title Effect of correlated noise on quasi-one-dimensional diffusion Type A1 Journal article
  Year (down) 2010 Publication Physical review : E : statistical physics, plasmas, fluids, and related interdisciplinary topics Abbreviated Journal Phys Rev E  
  Volume 82 Issue 5 Pages 051102-051102,5  
  Keywords A1 Journal article; Condensed Matter Theory (CMT)  
  Abstract Single-file diffusion (SFD) of an infinite one-dimensional chain of interacting particles has a long-time mean-square displacement ∝t1/2, independent of the type of interparticle repulsive interaction. This behavior is also observed in finite-size chains, although only for certain intervals of time t depending on the chain length L, followed by the ∝t for t→∞, as we demonstrate for a closed circular chain of diffusing interacting particles. Here, we show that spatial correlation of noise slows down SFD and can result, depending on the amount of correlated noise, in either subdiffusive behavior ∝tα, where 0<α<1/2, or even in a total suppression of diffusion (in the limit N→∞). Spatial correlation can explain the subdiffusive behavior in recent SFD experiments in circular channels.

  Title Dynamics of colloids in a narrow channel driven by a nonuniform force Type A1 Journal article
  Year (down) 2009 Publication Physical review : E : statistical physics, plasmas, fluids, and related interdisciplinary topics Abbreviated Journal Phys Rev E  
  Volume 80 Issue 5 Pages 051401,1-051401,10  
  Keywords A1 Journal article; Condensed Matter Theory (CMT)  
  Abstract Using Brownian dynamics simulations, we investigate the dynamics of colloids confined in two-dimensional narrow channels driven by a nonuniform force Fdr(y). We considered linear-gradient, parabolic, and deltalike driving-force profiles. This driving force induces melting of the colloidal solid (i.e., shear-induced melting), and the colloidal motion experiences a transition from elastic to plastic regime with increasing Fdr. For intermediate Fdr (i.e., in the transition region) the response of the system, i.e., the distribution of the velocities of the colloidal chains õi(y), in general does not coincide with the profile of the driving force Fdr(y), and depends on the magnitude of Fdr, the width of the channel, and the density of colloids. For example, we show that the onset of plasticity is first observed near the boundaries while the motion in the central region is elastic. This is explained by: (i) (in)commensurability between the chains due to the larger density of colloids near the boundaries, and (ii) the gradient in Fdr. Our study provides a deeper understanding of the dynamics of colloids in channels and could be accessed in experiments on colloids (or in dusty plasma) with, e.g., asymmetric channels or in the presence of a gradient potential field.
