Ordering transitions of weakly anisotropic hard rods in narrow slit-like pores
Roohollah Aliabadi, Peter Gurin, Enrique Velasco +1
The effect of strong confinement on the positional and orientational ordering is examined in a system of hard rectangular rods with length L and diameter D (L>D) using the Parsons-…
