Effective free energy method for nematic liquid crystals in contact with structured substrates
L. Harnau, S. Kondrat, A. Poniewierski
We study the phase behavior of a nematic liquid crystal confined between a flat substrate with strong anchoring and a patterned substrate whose structure and local anchoring streng…
Critical adsorption on non-spherical colloidal particles
S. Kondrat, L. Harnau, S. Dietrich
We consider a non-spherical colloidal particle immersed in a fluid close to its critical point. The temperature dependence of the corresponding order parameter profile is calculate…
Structure factor and thermodynamics of rigid dendrimers in solution
L. Harnau, S. Rosenfeldt, M. Ballauff
The ''polymer reference interaction site model'' (PRISM) integral equation theory is used to determine the structure factor of rigid dendrimers in solution. The theory is quite suc…
Softening of the stiffness of bottlebrush polymers by mutual interaction
S. Bolisetty, C. Airaud, Y. Xu +5
We study bottlebrush macromolecules in a good solvent by small-angle neutron scattering (SANS), static light scattering (SLS), and dynamic light scattering (DLS). These polymers co…
