Liquid-crystal-mediated force between a cylindrical nanoparticle and substrate
(American Physical Society, 2007-10-25)Using classical density functional theory, the structure of a molecular fluid around a cylindrical nanoparticle near a solid substrate is studied. The solvent-mediated force between the nanoparticle and the substrate is ... -
Quenched-annealed density functional theory for interfacial behavior of hard rods at a hard rod matrix
(AIP Publishing, 2009)We consider a system of mobile hard rods that are immersed in an isotropic matrix of hard rods with quenched positions and orientations. Using quenched-annealed density functional theory the disorder-averaged excess free ...
