Adsorption of polymers from dilute solution subject to shear flow near a planar wall is studied using kinetic theory. A dumbbell model consisting of two beads connected by a nonlinear spring is used to describe the polymer molecules, and the beads interact with the wall via a short-range exponential potential. Bead-be…

The present contribution analyzes the special bonding situation of the [FAAF](-) anions (A = O, S, Se, Te), where the addition on an extra charge turns the covalent A-A bond of the neutral into a charge-shift (CS) bond. By means of theoretical calculations, we demonstrate that electrostatic interactions produced by ne…

The modulation of Fano resonance by nanoparticle shape in ordered arrays is studied. The variation of the particle plasmon resonance mode changes the interference with the photonic modes of the particle in array that consequently shifts the Fano resonance mode. The elongation of the nanodiscs in arrays allowed modulat…
