Wetting and capillary nematization of binary hard-platelet and hard-rod fluids
L. Harnau, S. Dietrich
Density-functional theory is used to investigate the phase behavior of colloidal binary hard-platelet and hard-rod fluids near a single hard wall or confined in a slit pore. The Zw…

Critical Casimir Forces in Colloidal Suspensions
F. Schlesener, A. Hanke, S. Dietrich
Some time ago, Fisher and de Gennes pointed out that long-ranged correlations in a fluid close to its critical point Tc cause distinct forces between immersed colloidal particles w…

Geometrically-controlled twist transitions in nematic cells
P. Patricio, M. M. Telo da Gama, S. Dietrich
We study geometrically-controlled twist transitions of a nematic confined between a sinusoidal grating and a flat substrate. In these cells the transition to the twisted state is d…
