Quasicrystal formation in binary soft matter mixtures
A. Scacchi, W. R. C. Somerville, D. M. A. Buzza +1
Using a strategy that may be applied in theory or in experiments, we identify the regime in which a model binary soft matter mixture forms quasicrystals. The system is described us…
Pattern formation in two-dimensional hard-core/soft-shell systems with variable soft shell profiles
Walter R. C. Somerville, Adam D. Law, Marcel Rey +3
Hard-core/soft shell (HCSS) particles have been shown to self-assemble into a remarkably rich variety of structures under compression due to the simple interplay between the hard-c…
Controlling the self-assembly of binary copolymer mixtures in solution through molecular architecture
M. J. Greenall, P. Schuetz, S. Furzeland +4
We present a combined experimental and theoretical study on the role of copolymer architecture in the self-assembly of binary PEO-PCL mixtures in water-THF, and show that altering…
Micelle formation in block copolymer/homopolymer blends: comparison of self-consistent field theory with experiment and scaling theory
M. J. Greenall, D. M. A. Buzza, T. C. B. McLeish
We present a self-consistent field theory (SCFT) study of spherical micelle formation in a blend of poly(styrene-butadiene) diblocks and homopolystyrene. The micelle core radii, co…
