Substrate Adhesion of a Nongrafted Flexible Polymer in a Cavity
arXiv:0710.4314 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevE.73.041802
Abstract
In a contact density chain-growth study we investigate the solubility-temperature pseudo-phase diagram of a lattice polymer in a cavity with an attractive surface. In addition to the main phases of adsorbed and desorbed conformations we find numerous subphases of collapsed and expanded structures.
