Abstract:
In this study, we have shown the model of a microscale dielectric membrane capacitor including POPC structures. We have shown that has appeared in a small free space of the membrane thickness due to number of phospholipids layers. In addition, we have specifically investigated the quantum and coulomb blocked effects of different thickness. Furthermore, the electron density profile models, electron localization function (ELF) and local information entropy have been applied as a formal way to studies the interaction of protein with lipid bilayers in cell membrane.
