Conformational entropy bottleneck in polymer nanopore interception driven by branching architecture and excluded volume
Abstract The transport of polymers through nanopores is fundamentally governed by the interplay between molecular topology and nanoconfinement. However, how branching architecture influences the critical interception size ( R h,c ) under weak compression—where diffusion dominates and chain deformation is negligible—rem...
