Polymorph selection during crystallization of a model colloidal fluid with a free energy landscape containing a metastable solid
Mantu Santra, Rakesh S. Singh, Biman Bagchi
The free energy landscape responsible for crystallization can be complex even for relatively simple systems like hard sphere and charged stabilized colloids. In this work, using ha…
Orientational order as the origin of the long-range hydrophobic effect
Saikat Banerjee, Rakesh S. Singh, Biman Bagchi
The long range attractive force between two hydrophobic surfaces immersed in water is observed to decrease exponentially with their separation -- this distance-dependence of effect…
Strongly first order melting of a two dimensional molecular solid
Rakesh S. Singh, Mantu Santra, Biman Bagchi
Melting and freezing transitions in two dimensional systems are known to show highly unusual characteristics. Most of the earlier studies considered atomic systems; the melting beh…
Interplay between the range of attractive potential and metastability in gas-liquid nucleation
Rakesh S. Singh, Mantu Santra, Biman Bagchi
We find an interesting interplay between the range of the attractive part of the interaction potential and the extent of metastability (as measured by supersaturation) in gas-liqui…
