Translocation of Charged Polymers through a Nanopore in Monovalent and Divalent Salt Solutions: A Scaling Study Exploring over the Entire Driving Force Regimes

Langevin dynamics simulations are performed to study polyelectrolytes driven through a nanopore in monovalent and divalent salt solutions. The driving electric field <i>E</i> is applied inside the pore, and the strength is varied to cover the four characteristic force regimes depicted by...
