Triply periodic continuous morphologies arising a result of the microphase separation in block copolymer melts have so far never been observed self-assembled in systems of particles with spherically symmetric interaction. We report a…
We extensively study the phase diagram of a diblock copolymer melt confined in a cylindrical nanopore using real-space self-consistent mean-field theory. We discover a rich variety of new two-dimensional equilibrium structures that have no…
Using the self-consistent field theory (SCFT) in spherical unit cells of various dimensionalities, D, a phase diagram of a diblock, A-b-B, is calculated in 5 dimensional space, d = 5. This is an extension of a previous work for d = 4. The…
We present several ordering mechanisms in diblock copolymers. For temperatures above the order-disorder temperature and in the weak segregation regime, a linear response theory is presented which gives the polymer density in the vicinity of…
In this work we investigated the phase behavior of melts of block-copolymers with one charged block by means of dissipative particle dynamics with explicit electrostatic interactions. We assumed that all the Flory-Huggins \c{hi} parameters…
We derive the mean-field theory of disordered block-copolymers composed of two monomeric species, combining Edwards' functional method with the replica technique of disordered systems. In the absence of disorder we recover the canonical…
We investigate the ordered morphologies occurring in thin-films diblock copolymer. For temperatures above the order-disorder transition and for an arbitrary two-dimensional surface pattern, we use a Ginzburg-Landau expansion of the free…
The phase behavior of symmetric diblock copolymers under three-dimensional (3D) soft confinement is investigated using the self-consistent field theory. The soft confinement is realized in binary blends composed AB diblock copolymers and C…
Composition fluctuations in disordered melts of symmetric diblock copolymers are studied by Monte Carlo simulation over a range of chain lengths and interaction strengths. Results are used to test three theories: (1) the random phase…
Simulations of five different coarse-grained models of symmetric diblock copolymer melts are compared to demonstrate a universal (i.e., model-independent) dependence of the free energy on the invariant degree of polymerization…
Disordered hyperuniform (DHU) systems are recently discovered exotic states of matter, where (normalized) large-scale density fluctuations are completely suppressed as in crystals, even though the systems are isotropic and lack conventional…
A generalized self-consistent field approach for polymer networks with fixed topology is developed. It is shown that the theory reproduces the localization of crosslinks which is characteristic for gels. The theory is then used to study the…
Diffusion of symmetric diblock copolymer chains in macroscopically oriented lamellar block copolymers are studied in a molecular dynamics simulation. Results for diffusion constant both parallel $D_\parallel$ and perpendicular $D_\perp$ to…
We study the phase behavior of diblock copolymers in presence of an external electric field. We employ self-consistent field theory and treat the relevant Maxwell equation as an additional self-consistent equation. Because we do not treat…
The Leibler theory [L. Leibler, Macromolecules, v.13, 1602 (1980)] for microphase separation in AB block copolymer melts is generalized for systems with arbitrary topology of molecules. A diagrammatic technique for calculation of the…
We introduce an algorithm for the reduction of computer generated atomistic polymer samples to networks of primitive paths. By examining network ensembles of Polyethylene and cis-1,4 Polybutadiene melts, we quantify the underlying…
It is observed that interstitial hydrogen nucleii on a metallic lattice are strongly coupled to their near neighbours by the unscreened electromagnetic field mediating transitions between low-lying states. It is shown that the dominant…
Observations are reported in isothermal torsional oscillation tests on melts of isotactic polypropylene (iPP) and low-density polyethylene (LDPE) in the intervals of temperature between 190 and 250C (iPP) and between 120 and 190C (LDPE).…
The electronic properties of $\pi$-conjugated two-dimensional (2D) polymers near the Fermi level are determined by structural topology and chemical composition. Thus, tight-binding (TB) calculations of the corresponding fundamental network…
The isothermal, isobaric spontaneous crystallization of a supercooled polymer melt is investigated by MD simulation of an ensemble of fully-flexible linear chains. Frustration is introduced via two incommensurate length scales set by the…
