Self-assembly of orthorhombic Fddd network in simple one-component liquids
Lorenzo Agosta, Alfredo Metere, Peter Oleynikov +1
Triply periodic continuous morphologies arising a result of the microphase separation in block copolymer melts have so far never been observed self-assembled in systems of particle…
A hexatic smectic phase with algebraically decaying bond-orientational order
Lorenzo Agosta, Alfredo Metere, Mikhail Dzugutov
The hexatic phase predicted by the theories of two-dimensional melting is characterised by the power law decay of the orientational correlations whereas the in-layer bond orientati…
New kind of dodecagonal quasicrystal
Alfredo Metere, Peter Oleynikov, Mikhail Dzugutov +1
We report a novel kind of dodecagonal quasicrystal that has so far never been observed, nor theoretically predicted. It is composed of axially stacked hexagonal particle layers, wi…
Formation of a Columnar Liquid Crystal in a Simple One-Component System of Particles
Alfredo Metere, Tomas Oppelstrup, Sten Sarman +1
We report a molecular dynamics simulation demonstrating that a columnar liquid crystal, commonly formed by disc-shaped molecules, can be formed by identical particles interacting v…
Formation of the Smectic-B Crystal from a Simple Monatomic Liquid
A. Metere, T. Oppelstrup, S. Sarman +2
We report a molecular dynamics simulation demonstrating that the Smectic B crystalline phase (Cr-B), commonly observed in mesogenic systems of anisotropic molecules, can be formed…
A simple monatomic ideal glass former: the glass transition by a first-order phase transition above the melting point
Måns Elenius, Tomas Oppelstrup, Mikhail Dzugutov
A liquid can form under cooling a glassy state either as a result of a continuous slowing down or by a first order polyamorphous phase transition. The second scenario has so far al…
