We investigate the cooperative effects of a single finite chain of monomers near an attractive substrate by first constructing a conformational pseudo-phase diagram based on the thermal fluctuations of energetic and structural quantities.…
We investigate the adsorption of a flexible polymer at a hexagonally patterned monolayer. All conformational polymer phases are identified, which enables the construction of a hyperphase diagram, parameterized by temperature and monolayer…
Using synchrotron radiation with a photon energy of 15 keV, the molecular structure of an adsorbed n-triacontanol layer at the n-hexadecane - water interface in different its phase states has been studied by the method of diffuse X-ray…
A polymer chain tethered to a surface may be compact or extended, adsorbed or desorbed, depending on interactions with the surface and the surrounding solvent. This leads to a rich phase diagram with a variety of transitions. To investigate…
Numerically efficient transfer matrix technique for studying statistics of coherent adsorbates on small nanotubes has been developed. In the framework of a realistic microscopic model fitted to the data of ab initio calculations taken from…
We provide a general thermodynamic framework for the understanding of guest-induced structural transitions in hybrid organic-inorganic materials. The method is based on the analysis of experimental adsorption isotherms. It allows the…
We study the adsorption-desorption of fluid molecules on a solid substrate by introducing a schematic model in which the adsorption/desorption transition probabilities are given by irreversible kinetic constraints with a tunable violation…
We investigate the competitive adsorption of a two-component gas on the surface of an adsorbent whose adsorption properties vary in adsorption due to the adsorbent deformation. The essential difference of adsorption isotherms for a…
A new simple method for the first order phase transition kinetics is suggested. The metastable phase consumption can be imagined in frames of the modisperse approximation for the distribution of the droplets sizes. In all situations of the…
We present a new model of sequential adsorption in which the adsorbing particles experience dipolar interactions. We show that in the presence of these long-range interactions, highly ordered structures in the adsorbed layer may be induced…
Monte Carlo simulations and finite-size scaling analysis have been carried out to study the critical behavior in a submonolayer lattice-gas of interacting monomers adsorbed on one-dimensional channels arranged in a triangular…
In this work we study the multilayer adsorption of polyatomic species on homogeneous and heterogeneous bivariate surfaces. A new approximate analytic isotherm is obtained and validated by comparing with Monte Carlo simulation. Then, we use…
Motivated by recent findings, we discuss the existence of a direct and robust mechanism providing discontinuous absorbing transitions in short range systems with single species, with no extra symmetries or conservation laws. We consider…
Motivated by the experimental study of Tayebi et al. [Nature Mater. 11, 1074 (2012)] on phase separation of stacked multi-component lipid bilayers, we propose a model composed of stacked two-dimensional Ising spins. We study both its static…
The adsorption at the interface between an aqueous solution of several surface-active agents and another fluid (air or oil) phase is addressed theoretically. We derive the kinetic equations from a variation of the interfacial free energy,…
The statement that any phase transition is related to the appearance or disappearance of long-range spatial correlations precludes a finite transition temperature in one-dimensional (1D) systems. In this paper we demonstrate that the 1D…
The competition between interactions and dissipative processes in a quantum many-body system can drive phase transitions of different order. Exploiting a combination of cluster methods and quantum trajectories, we show how the systematic…
A simple statistical mechanical approach for studying multilayer adsorption of interacting polyatomic adsorbates (k-mers) has been presented. The new theoretical framework has been developed on a generalization in the spirit of the…
We consider the Ising model on the two-dimensional square lattice where on each horizontal line, called "layer", the interaction is given by a ferromagnetic Kac potential with coupling strength $J_\gamma(x,y)=\gamma J(\gamma(x-y))$, where…
A simple solid-on-solid model, proposed earlier to describe overlayer-induced faceting of bcc(111) surface, is applied to faceting of spherical surfaces covered by adsorbate monolayer. Monte Carlo simulation results show that morphology of…
