摘要:

结合不同分辨率的弹性非相干中子散射实验和分子动力学模拟,我们报道了聚(N-异丙基丙烯酰胺)线性链中类似蛋白质的动力学跃迁的观测结果.我们确定了转变的起始温度为$T_d$约225 K。由于一种新的全球拟合程序,我们发现在所有温度和时间分辨率的测量和计算的聚合物均方位移之间的定量协议。我们的研究结果证实了在水环境中的大分子系统中的动态过渡的一般性,独立的内部聚合物拓扑结构。

英文摘要:

Combining elastic incoherent neutron scattering experiments at different resolutions with molecular dynamics simulations, we report the observation of a protein-like dynamical transition in linear chains of Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide). We identify the onset of the transition at a temperature $T_d$ of about 225~K. Thanks to a novel global fit procedure, we find quantitative agreement between measured and calculated polymer mean-squared displacements at all temperatures and time resolutions. Our results confirm the generality of the dynamical transition in macromolecular systems in aqueous environments, independently of the internal polymer topology.
