Abstract:
Molecular dynamics simulations are carried out to study the pressure driven fluid flow of water through single walled carbon nanotubes. A method for the calculation of viscosity of the confined fluid based on the Eyring theory of reaction rates is proposed. The method involves the calculation of the activation energy directly from the molecular dynamics trajectory information. Computations are performed using this method to study the effect of surface curvature on the confined fluid viscosity. The results indicate that the viscosity varies nonlinearly with the carbon nanotube diameter. It is concluded that the reason behind the observed enhancement in the rate of fluid flow through carbon nanotubes could be the nonlinear variation of viscosity.

Abstract:
Nanotechnology is being used to enhance conventional ceramic and polymeric water treatment membrane materials through various avenues. Among the numerous concepts proposed, the most promising to date include zeolitic and catalytic nanoparticle coated ceramic membranes, hybrid inorganic-organic nanocomposite membranes, and bio-inspired membranes such as hybrid protein-polymer biomimetic membranes, aligned nanotube membranes, and isoporous block copolymer membranes. A semi-quantitative ranking system was proposed considering projected performance enhancement (over state-of-the-art analogs) and state of commercial readiness. Performance enhancement was based on water permeability, solute selectivity, and operational robustness, while commercial readiness was based on known or anticipated material costs, scalability (for large scale water treatment applications), and compatibility with existing manufacturing infrastructure. Overall, bio-inspired membranes are farthest from commercial reality, but offer the most promise for performance enhancements; however, nanocomposite membranes offering significant performance enhancements are already commercially available. Zeolitic and catalytic membranes appear reasonably far from commercial reality and offer small to moderate performance enhancements. The ranking of each membrane nanotechnology is discussed along with the key commercialization hurdles for each membrane nanotechnology.

Abstract:
The influences of the diameter (size) of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) and the temperature on the viscosity of water confined in SWCNTs are investigated by an "Eyring-MD" (molecular dynamics) method. The results suggest that the relative viscosity of the confined water increases with increasing diameter and temperature, whereas the size-dependent trend of the relative viscosity is almost independent of the temperature. Based on the computational results, a fitting formula is proposed to calculate the size-and temperature-dependent water viscosity, which is useful for the computation on the nanoflow. To demonstrate the rationality of the calculated relative viscosity, the relative amount of the hydrogen bonds of water confined in SWCNTs is also computed. The results of the relative amount of the hydrogen bonds exhibit similar profiles with the curves of the relative viscosity. The present results should be instructive for understanding the coupling effect of the size
and the temperature at the nanoscale.

Abstract:
The diffusion mechanism and coefficient of water confined in carbon nanotubes (CNTs) of diameter ranging from 8 to 54 are studied by molecular dynamics simulations. It is found that the motions of water molecules inside the CNTs of diameter smaller than 12.2 follow a two-stage diffusion mechanism. Initially, the water diffusion exhibits a long-time super- or sub-diffusion mechanism, and thereafter it transits to the single-file type inside the (6, 6) CNT and shifts to the Fickian type inside the larger CNTs. As for the CNTs of diameter larger than 12.2 , the diffusion of the confined water occurs through the Fickian mechanism, which is identical to that of the bulk water. The simulation results further reveal that the diffusion coefficient of the confined water is non-monotonically dependent on the diameter, which can be ascribed to the double-edged effect of CNTs, i.e., the surface effect and the size effect.

Abstract:
This study presents an analytical method for the forced vibration of an elastically connected double-carbon nanotube system (DCNTS) carrying a moving nanoparticle based on the nonlocal elasticity theory. The two nanotubes are identical and are connected with each other continuously by elastic springs. The problem is also solved numerically by using the Galerkin method and the time integration method of Newmark to establish the reliability of the analytical method. Two sets of critical velocity exist for DCNTS. The closed-form solutions for the dynamic deflections of the two nanotubes are derived for these two sets of critical velocity for the first time in this study. The influences of the nonlocal parameter, aspect ratio, velocity of the moving nanoparticle and the elastic layer between the nanotubes on the dynamic responses are discussed. The study shows that the dynamic behavior of the double-carbon nanotube system is greatly influenced by the nonlocal effects. The dynamic
deflections predicted by the classical theory are always smaller than those predicted by the nonlocal theory due to the nonlocal effects. Thus, the classical beam models are not suitable in modeling carbon nanotubes with small aspect ratio, and nonlocal effects should be taken into account. Furthermore, the velocity of the nanoparticle and the stiffness of the elastic layer have significant effects on the dynamic behavior of DCNTS. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Abstract:
Molecular-dynamics simulations were carried out to ascertain which of the potential multimeric forms of the transmembrane peptaibol channel, antiamoebin, is consistent with its measured conductance. Estimates of the conductance obtained through counting ions that cross the channel and by solving the Nernst-Planck equation yield consistent results, indicating that the motion of ions inside the channel can be satisfactorily described as diffusive. The calculated conductance of octameric channels is markedly higher than the conductance measured in single channel recordings, whereas the tetramer appears to be nonconducting. The conductance of the hexamer was estimated to be 115 +/- 34 pS and 74 +/- 20 pS, at 150 mV and 75 mV, respectively, in satisfactory agreement with the value of 90 pS measured at 75 mV. On this basis, we propose that the antiamoebin channel consists of six monomers. Its pore is large enough to accommodate K+ and Cl- with their first solvation shells intact. T
he free energy barrier encountered by K+ is only 2.2 kcal/mol whereas Cl- encounters a substantially higher barrier of nearly 5 kcal/mol. This difference makes the channel selective for cations. Ion crossing events are shown to be uncorrelated and follow Poisson statistics.

Abstract:
Transport phenomena through the hollow conduits of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are subjects of intense theoretical and experimental research. We have studied molecular transport over the large spectrum of ionic diffusion to pressure-driven gaseous and liquid flow. Plasma oxidation during the fabrication of the membrane introduces carboxylic acid groups at the CNT entrance, which provides electrostatic "gatekeeper" effects on ionic transport. Diffusive transport of ions of different charge and size through the core of the CNT is close to bulk diffusion expectations and allows estimation of the number of open pores or porosity of the membrane. Flux of gases such as N-2, CO2, Ar, H-2, and CH4 scaled Inversely with their molecular weight by an exponent of 0.4, close to expected kinetic theory velocity expectations. However, the magnitude of the fluxes was similar to 15- to 30-fold higher than predicted from Knudsen diffusion kinetics and consistent with specular momentum reflection i
nside smooth pores. Polar liquids such as water, ethanol, and isopropyl alcohol and nonpolar liquids such as hexane and decane were dramatically enhanced, with water flow over 4 orders of magnitude larger than "no-slip" hydrodynamic flow predictions. As direct experimental proof for the mechanism of near perfect slip conditions within CNT cores, a stepwise hydrophilic functionalization of CNT membranes from as-produced, tip-functionalized, and core-functionalized was performed. Pressure-driven water flow through the membrane was reduced from 5 x 10(4) to 2 x 10(2) to less than a factor of 5 enhancement over conventional Newtonian flow, while retaining nearly the same pore area.

Abstract:
Highly flexible, robust, and sensitive Infrared nanosensors were fabricated based on carbon nanoparticles that were synthesized through a simple and low-cost flame method. The infrared nanosensor devices showed sharp infrared photoresponse with a response time of similar to 68 ms and a maximum photocurrent change of similar to 52.9%. The devices showed a superhydrophobic property with a contact angle larger than 150 degrees and a sliding angle of similar to 4 degrees. The mechanism for the enhanced Infrared photoresponse from carbon nanoparticles is discussed.

Abstract:
We present an approach for measuring the water flow rate through individual ultralong carbon nanotubes (CNTs) using field effect transistors array defined on individual tubes. Our work exhibits a rate enhancement of 882-51 and a slip length of 53-8 nm for CNTs with diameters of 0.81-1.59 nm. We also found that the enhancement factor does not increase monotonically with shrinking tube diameter and there exists a discontinuous region around 0.98-1.10 nm. We believe that these single-tube level results would help understand the intrinsic nanofluidics of water in CNTs.

Abstract:
Understanding the variation of nanofluidic behavior in the presence of an external electric field is critical for controlling and designing nanofluidic devices. By studying the critical infiltration pressure of liquids into hydrophobic nanopores using molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and experiments, important insights can be gained on the variation of the effective liquid solid interfacial tension with the magnitude and sign of electric field, as well as its coupling with the pore size and the solid and liquid species. It is found that the effective hydrophobicity reduces with the increase of electric intensity and/or pore size, and the behavior is asymmetric with respect to the direction of the electric field. The underlying molecular mechanisms are revealed via the study of the density profile, contact angle, and surface tension of confined liquid molecules.

Abstract:
We report molecular dynamics (MD) simulation of energy exchange between single-walled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and two aprotic solvents, acetonitrile and cyclohexane. Following our earlier study of hydrated CNTs, we find that the time scales and molecular mechanisms of the energy transfer are largely independent of the nature of the surrounding medium, and therefore, should hold for other media including polymer matrices and DNA. The vibrational energy exchange between CNT and solvents exhibits two time-scales. Over half of the energy is transferred in less than one picosecond, indicating that the dominant exchange mechanism is inertial relaxation. It occurs by collisions of solvent molecules with CNT walls, facilitated by the short-range Lennard-Jones interaction. Additional several picoseconds are required for the remainder of the vibrational energy exchange, corresponding to the diffusive relaxation mechanism and involving collective molecular motions. The faster stage of t
he CNT-solvent energy exchange occurs on the same time-scale, and therefore, competes with the vibrational energy relaxation inside CNTs. The energy exchange time-scales are significantly influenced by the arrangement of solvent molecules inside CNTs. Generally, the effects of confinement on the dynamics can be rationalized by analysis of the solvent structure. For the same CNT diameter, the extent of the confinement effect strongly depends on the size of the solvent molecules. Icelike properties in water seen in small CNTs disappear in CNTs with intermediate diameters. In acetonitrile and cyclohexane, medium size CNTs still show strong confinement effects. Rotational motions of acetonitrile molecules are inhibited, and the cyclohexane density is dramatically decreased. The disbalance between the local temperatures of the inside and outside regions of the solvent equilibrates through a tube-mediated interaction, rather than by a direct coupling between the two solvent subsys
tems. In all cases, the CNT-solvent energy transfer is media!

Abstract:
Inside narrow pores, for instance, realized as carbon nanotubes, water forms structures that strongly differ from the structure of bulk liquid water or ice. Here we compute vibrational spectra of such systems using molecular dynamics simulation combined with quantum mechanical perturbation theory. We focus on the spectroscopic response of single-file water chains in pores with subnanometer diameter, finding characteristic signatures of dangling and hydrogen-bonded hydrogen configurations occurring in this particular form of water. These features in the absorption spectra permit us to distinguish single-file water from the stacked-ring structures that form in wider pores. As previously observed in bulk liquid water, the vibrational frequency of the OH stretch of an HDO molecule in a system of D2O molecules is essentially determined by the electric field acting at the position of the hydrogen atom, providing a way to link the spectroscopic response to the local charge distribut
ion of specific molecular arrangements.

Abstract:
Our previous study on the interaction of alpha-helical peptide with single walled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) has revealed the structural basis for the helix breaking tendency of the CNT and associated energetics (J. Phys. Chem. B 2010, 114, 14048). In this study, a systematic attempt has been made to explore the relationship between the curvature of carbon nanomaterials (NMs) and their alpha-helix breaking tendency. The interaction of a model alpha-helical peptide, polyalanine consisting of 40 residues (PA(40)) with CNTs of different chiralities ((6,6), (10,10), (14,14), and (18,18)) and planar graphene sheet has been investigated using molecular dynamics (MD) simulation approach. The structural changes in the helical peptide which is adsorbed onto the surface of the NMs of different curvatures have been derived from the MD simulation. The role of electrostatic and van der Waals energies in the interaction process has also been obtained from the MD trajectory. Results show that
the extent of helix breakage induced by the NMs is inversely proportional to their curvature; that is, the helix breaking tendency is minimum for the CNT having the highest curvature and maximum for the planar graphene sheet.

Abstract:
Carbon nanotube (CNT) film was synthesized directly on macroporous surface of a-alumina support by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) of cyclohexanol and ferrocene in nitrogen atmosphere at 650 degrees C, and oxidized using HNO3 and H2SO4 and then employed as membrane in desalination process (sodium chloride removal from water). In order to enhance the performance of the oxidized CNTs membrane, effects of operating parameters on the yield of desalinated water (separation percent and permeate flux) were studied. Four parameters at three levels were selected: feed concentration (10,000, 20,000 and 30,000 ppm), temperature (25. 35 and 45 degrees C), pressure (4, 7 and 10 bar) and flow rate (200, 350 and 5001/h). Taguchi method was used to plan a minimum number of experiments and to find the optimal conditions. The results showed that increasing feed concentration, temperature and flow rate as well as decreasing pressure optimize the performance of the oxidized CNTs membrane (separa
tion percent and permeate flux). Analysis of variance (ANOVA) was applied and it was found that temperature is the most influential factor on the oxidized CNTs membrane performance (its contribution percentage was calculated to be about 60%). (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Abstract:
Carbon nanotubes can be embedded into a polymer matrix to manufacture nanotube membranes generating rapid water transport. In particular, for nanotubes of small radii, the single-file transport of water diffusing rapidly and concertedly through densely filled carbon nanotubes has been reported. In this paper, we provide an additional methodology to investigate such problems by employing both applied mathematical modelling and classical phonon theory. Our approach has the merit of giving rise to rapid computational times in comparison to the molecular dynamics simulations approach. The total energy of a water molecule inside a carbon nanotube can be determined analytically using point-point interactions and the continuous approximation. In addition, we may use classical phonon theory for the collective motion of water molecules inside the nanotube to formulate the basic equations of motion for water diffusing through a carbon nanotube. Upon making a 'sufficiently long' hypoth!
esis, the average water flow time can be deduced analytically. Furthermore, we incorporate external forces at the tube ends and show that water is virtually incompressible for external forces up to 3 pN. We also determine the variation of the water flow time under random fluctuations in the presence of the external forces and find that the random effect diminishes as the external force increases. This outcome could open up a precise engineering approach for using such nanotube membranes in numerous applications. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Abstract:
The effects of electric field on the phase behaviors of water encapsulated in a thick single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) (diameter = 1.2 nm) have been studied by performing extensive molecular dynamics simulations at atmospheric pressure. We found that liquid water can freeze continuously into either pentagonal or helical solidlike ice nanotube in SWCNT, depending on the strengths of the external electric field applied along the tube axis. Remarkably, the helical one is new ice phase which was not observed previously in the same size of SWCNT in the absence of electric field. Furthermore, a discontinuous solid-solid phase transition is observed between pentagonal and helical ice nanotubes as the strengths of the external electric field changes. The mechanism of electric-field-induced phase transition is discussed. The dependence of ice structures on the chiralities of SWCNTs is also investigated. Finally, we present a phase diagram of confined water in the electric field-!
