Atomistic simulation of structure and dynamics of columnar phases of hexabenzocoronene derivatives

Soft Condensed Matter 2009-11-11 v1

Abstract

Using atomistic molecular dynamics simulations we study solid and liquid crystalline columnar discotic phases formed by alkyl-substituted hexabenzocoronene mesogens. Correlations between the molecular structure, packing, and dynamical properties of these materials are established.
