COMPOSITIONALLY TUNABLE STIMULI-RESPONSIVE NANOPARTICLES HAVING UNIFORM SIZES, SHAPES, AND CORE-SHELL ARCHITECTURES
Abstract
The objective of this proposal is to develop a first-principles electro hydrodynamic model of electrospray that, including the ion emission regime, the droplet/ion mixed regime, and the transition between ion and droplet regimes for variable specific impulse propulsion, through modeling and simulation validated through experimental study. This study will help to understand microscale of ion emission, design /optimization of ionic liquid propellants, to control the transition between the droplet and the ion emission regimes, lifetime prediction, as well as the emitter density.
