`
`Molecules drift along temperature gradients, an effect called
`thermophoresi$, the Soret effect, or thermodiffuslon.ln liquids, it~
`theoretical foundation is the $Ubject of a long-standing debate. By
`using an all-optkai microfiuidic fluore$cem:e method, we present
`experimental results for DNA and polystyrene beads over a large
`range of partide s!a:e~. salt concentrations, and temperatllri1!5. The
`data support a unifying theory based on solvation entropy. Stated
`in !;imple terms, the Soret meffldrmt i!i given by the negative
`solvation entropy, dh1ided by kT, Thil th!lory predicts the thermod(cid:173)
`iffusion of polystyrenil beads and DNA without any free parame·
`tiH$. We as;ume a local thermodynamic equilibrium of the •oivent
`molecules around the molecule. This as!lumptlon is fulfilled for
`moderate temperature gradients below a fluctuation criterion. For
`both DNA and polystyrene beads, thermophoretk motion d-sange$
`sign at lower temperatures. This thermophilidty toward lower
`temperatures is attributed to an il"lcrea$lng positive sntropy of
`hydration, whereas the generally dominating thermophobkity is
`explained by the negative entropy of ionk !ihielding. The under·
`standing of thermodiffusion set!i the ~tage for detailed probing of
`solvation pmpertie!i of colloids and biomolewles. For exam pi!<!, we

`
`T hermodiffusion has been known for a long time (1), but its
`
`theoretical explanation for mole.cules in liquids is still under
`debate. The search for a theoretical understanding is motivated by
`the fact that thermodiffusion in water might lead to powerful
`all-optical screening methods for biomo!ecules and colloids.
`Equally well, thermodiffu~ion handles and moves molecules all(cid:173)
`optically and therefore can complement well established methods:
`for example, electrophoresis or optical tweezers. For the latter,
`forces of optical tweezers scale with particle volume and limit this
`method to particlr..s of only >500 nm. Electrophoresis does not
`suffer from force limitations but is difficult to miniaturize because
`of electrochemical reactions at the electrodes,
`On the other hand. thermodiffusion allows the microscale
`manipulation of smali particles and molecules. For e.xamplc,
`1,000-bp DNA can be p~>HcrMd ;srbitrmf!y in bulk water (Fig, 1}.

`accumulates toward the heated letters "DNA" (negative Soret
`effect), whereas at room temperature DNA is thermophobic
`(positive Soret effect) as seen by !he dark letters.
`In the past, the apparent complexity of therrnodiffus1on pre(cid:173)
`vented a full theoretical description. As seen for DNA in Fig. 1,
`molecules characteristically deplete from regions with an increased
`temperature, but they can also show the inverted effect and
`accumulate (2, 3). Moreover, the size scaling of thermodiffusion
`recorded bv thermal f1e.ld flow fractionation showed fractional
`power laws ~ith a variety of exponents that are hard to interpret { 4,
`5). The latter effect might be resolved by revealing nonlinear
`ibermovhoretic drift for the strong thermal gradients used in
`thermai field flow fractionation (our unpublished observations).
`A variety of methods were used to measure thermodiffusion,
`mostly in the nonaqueous regime, ranging from beam deflection

`surement of thermodiffusion over a wide molecule size range
`without artifacts induced by thermal convection. Highly diluted
`suspensions can be measured; therefore, par!ide-particle inter(cid:173)
`actions do not have an influence. We only apply moderate
`temperature gradients. In !.he following study, we used this
`method to confirm a straightforward theoretical explanation of
`thermodiffusion.
`
`Theoretical Approach
`For diluted c.oncentrations, it is generally assumed (14) that the
`thermodiffusive drift velocity v depends linearly on the tempe.r·
`ature gradient VT with a proportionality constant which equals
`the thermodiffusion coefficient D-r: v = -DTVT. In steady state,
`thermodiffusion is balanced by ordinary diffusion, Constant
`diffusion and thermodiffusion coefficients both lead to an
`exponential depletion law (15) c(cu "' exp[-··(DT/D)(T - ?'o)J,
`with the concentration c dependmg on the temperature dtffer·
`ence T - To only. The concentration c is normalized by the
`boundary condition of the concentration co with temperature To,
`The Soret coefficient is defined as ratio ST = D·r/D, which
`determines the magnitude of thermodiffusion in the steady state.
`Although !he above exponential distribution could motivate an
`approach based on Boltzmann equilibrium statistics, it is com(cid:173)
`monly argued that thermodiffusion without exception is a local
`nonequilibrium effect that re.quires fluid dynamics, force fields,
`or particle-solvent potentials (16-20). However, in a previou>
`paper (15), we demonstrated that for moderate temperature

`The Soret coefficient Sr scales linearly with particle surface A
`and Debye length Arm. We tested Eq. 2 by meusuring ST versus
`salt concentration, temperature, and molecul;; size. In all cases,

`sion is measured at local thermodynamlc equllibrium conditions.
`Local thermodynamic equilihrium allows the derivation of a
`thermodynamic foundation of the Soret codficient. The local
`Boltzmarm distribution relates small concentmtion changes &
`with smBil Gibbs-free energy differences: &/c ""' -oG/kT. We
`equate ihiR relation with a locally linearized thermodiffusion
`steady state given by &/c "' -SroT and thus find the Soret
`coefficient by the temperature derivative of G:
`
`[1]
`
`Whereas the above relation is stJfficient for the following
`derivation, it can be generalized by locally applying the thermo(cid:173)
`dynamic rehiion dG = -SdT + v'dp + p.dN. For singi<J particles
`at a constant pressun:. we find that the Soret coefficient equals
`the negative entropy of the partide-solvmlt system S 1:ccording
`to Sr = -SikT, Thi~ relation is not surprising given that the
`entropy is by ddinition related with the temperature derivative
`of the free enthalpy.
`The above general energe1ic treatment is inh<Jrent in previ(cid:173)
`ously described approaches baoed on local equilibrium (14, 21,
`22), including the successful interpretatlon of thermoelectric
`voltages of diluted electrolytes (23, 24), which are described by
`energies of !nmsfer. Re{:ently, the nonequilJbrium approach by
`Ruckenstein (25) was applied to colloids (26) with the charac·
`teristic length I as:;igned to the De bye length ADH· If in~tead one
`would assign the charaet<Jri;;tic length according to l = 2ai3 with
`the particle radi!JS a, the Rucke.nstein approach would actually
`confirm the above local equilibrium relation (1) for the Sorel
`coefficient Measurements em SDS micelle~ (26) appeared to
`confirm this nonequilibrium approach, but for the chosen par·
`tides the competing parameter choices l ='J.a./3 and C = Arm
`yielded comp::~rabfe value~. Thus, the experiments could not
`distinguish between the competing theories.
`We will use the above local equilibrium relation;; to derive
`the Sore: coefficient for particles larger th'm the Debye length
`in aqueous solutions and put the results to rigorous experi·
`mental tests, Two contributions dominate the panicle entropy
`Sin water (Fig. 74): the entropy ofionic ~bidding (Fig. 2a Lejt)
`and the temperature-sensitive entropy of water hydration {Fig,

`scale linearly with a small intercept at ADH = 0 and confirm the
`ADwdependence of Eq. 2. For smaller·diameter beads, the Soret
`coefficients scale with the particle surface area A (Fig. 2), as
`expected from Eq. 2. To check whether Eq. 2 also quantitatively
`explains the measured Soret coefiklcnts, we inferred the effec~
`tive charge of the beads by electroptlmesi:! (see supporting
`materials). By using 40-nm beads with identical carbOJ..')'l surface
`modifications at ADH = 9.6 nm, we nuorescently observed

`ing an effective ;;urface. charge density of o-0rr = 4,500 ± 2,000

`concentra1kms (28). With rhis inferred effective charge, Eq, 2 fits
`the Soret coefficient for various bead sizes and salt concentra(cid:173)
`tions weil (Fig. 2b, solid lines).
`The intercept ST(ADH = 0), where ionic contributions are zero,
`also scales with particle surface and is described by a hydration
`entropy per particle surface of Shyd = -1,400 J/{mol·K·~<-m2). The
`value matches the literature values for similar surfaces reason(cid:173)
`ably well (29-31). For example, dansyl-alanine, a molecule wlth
`surface groups comparable with polystyrene beads, was mea(cid:173)
`sured to have a hydration entropy (29) of -0.13 J/(moi·K) at a
`comparable temper<lture. Linear scaling with its surface area by
`using a raditw of a "" 2 nm results in a value of Snyd = -2,500
`J/(mol·K·p..m2), in qualitative. agreement with our result The
`hydration entropy is a highly informative molecule parameter
`that is notoriously difficult to measure, yielding an interesting
`application for thermodiffusion.
`
`'hlmperaturl! Oep~ndencl!. Hydration entmpie:; Snyd in water are
`known w increa~e linearly witb decreasing temperatures (29-
`31). Because the slope of the ionic contribution of Srvenus A.m1
`ls with high-precision temperature insensitive for water [f3(T)I
`(eT2) s const), only the intercept is expected to decrease as the
`overall temverature of the chamber is reduced, Thi~ is indeed the
`case, as §een from the temperature dependence of beads with
`diameters of L1 ,um (T = 6-'29"C) (Fig. 3a). We infer from the
`intercept S·r(ADfl "' 0) that the hydration entropy changes sign at
`=20°C. As seen for DNA in Fig. 1, hydration entropy can
`dominate the.rmodiffusion at low tempera:ures and move mol(cid:173)
`ecules toward the heat (O.r < 0).
`The properties of hydration entropy lead to a linear increase
`of S.r over temperatures at a fixed aalt concentration as measured
`for 1.1-f<.m beads and DNA (Fig. 3b). We normalized Sr by
`dividing by .h(30°C) to compensate for molecule ~urface area.
`The slope;; of ST over temperature differ between beads and
`DNA, Howeve.r the slope. does not differ be!ween DNA of
`different size (50 bp versus 10,000 bp). Based on Eq. 2. this is to
`
`be expected because !he temperature dependen~"' of the hydra(cid:173)
`tion entropy depends only on the type of surface of the molecule,
`not its size. We measured the diffu;;ion coefficients of the DNA
`species at the respective tempilr<:ture independently. Witbin
`experimental error, changes in the diffusion codficient D match
`with the change of the ·.vater viscosity without the need to assume
`conformationul changes of DNA over the temperat!lre range.
`Please note that the change of the sign of the DNA Soret
`coefficient is situated near the point of maximal water density
`only by chance. There, the two entropic contributions balance,
`For polystyrene beads at Arm ~ 2 nm for example, the sign
`change is observed at 15°C (Fig. 3a ). An increased Soret
`coefficient over tempemture was reported for aqueous solutions
`before (3), however with a distinct nonlinearity that we attribute
`to remnant particle-particle interactions.
`
`Siie Oeptnds;nc!! of the !lead$, The Soret coefficient was measured
`for carboxyl-modified polystyrene beads in diameters ranging
`from 20 nm to 2 /Lm, Bead:; witb di<lme!ers of 0.2, 0.1, O,G4, and
`0.02 iJ.rH were diluted to concentrations of 10 pM, 15 pM, 250
`pM, and 2 nM, and their bulk fluores(:ence was imaged over time
`to derive D7 and D (12, 15) from the depletion and sub:;equent
`back-diffusion. Larger beads with diameters of 1.9, 1.1, and 0.5
`~·m were diluted w concer!!rlltions of 3.3 aM, 25 aM, and 02 pM
`and measured with single-particle tracking. The solmiom were
`buffered in 1 mM Tris (pH 7.6) with Aml = 9,6 nm. ln all cases,
`interaction§ between particles can be excluded. Care wa:s taken
`to keep the temperature gradient in the local equiHbrium regime.
`We find that the Soret coefficient §Cales with particle surface
`over four order~ of magnitude {Fig. ·1a). Tbe data are described
`well with Eq. 2 with an effective surface charge density of rrorr =
`4,500 e!~<-m' and neglected hydration entropy contribution. The
`5-fold too-low prediction for the smallest particle {20 nm in
`diameter) can be explained by charge renormalization because
`its radius is smaller than itDB·
`The diffusion coefficient D for spheres is given by the Einstein
`relation and scales inversely with mdiu:; D a< 1/a. In~erting Eq. 2
`into ST "" Dy/D, the thermodiffusion coefficient DT is expected
`to scale with particle radius a, This is experimentally confirmed
`over two orders of magnitude (Fig. 4b ). These findings contmdict

`cules, bends are a much tess complicated model system. Beads
`are rigid spheres that interact with the solvent only at its surface.
`ln addition, the charges reside on the surface, where the
`screening takes place. Thus, the finding that thermodiffusion of
`flexible and homogeneously charged DNA is described equally
`well with Eq. 2 is not readi!y expected and quite interesting (Fig,

`was stained with the TOT0-1 fluorescent dve. The diffusion
`coefficient was measured by back-diffusion after the laser was
`turned off and depends on the length L of the DNA in a
`nontrivilll way. The data are well fitted with a hydrodynamic
`radius scaling a :x L 0·7·5• This scaling represents an effective
`average over two DNA length regimes. For DNA molecules
