Benchmarking a Self-Consistent Field Theory for Small Amphiphilic Molecules
A minimalist self-consistent field theory for small amphiphilic molecules is presented. The equations for this model are less involved than those for block copolymers and are easily implemented computationally. A new convergence technique based on a variant of Anderson mixing is also presented which allows the equations to be solved more rapidly than block copolymer self-consistent field theory...
متن کاملBilayers in amphiphilic mixtures connected by threadlike micelles: a self-consistent field theory study
Binary mixtures of amphiphiles in solution can self-assemble into a wide range of structures when the two species individually form aggregates of different curvatures. A specific example of this is seen in solutions of lipid mixtures where the two species form lamellar structures and spherical micelles respectively. Here, vesicles connected by thread-like micelles can form in a narrow concentra...
متن کاملAggregate morphologies of amphiphilic ABC triblock copolymer in dilute solution using self-consistent field theory.
The complex microstructures of amphiphilic ABC linear triblock copolymers in which one of the end blocks is relatively short and hydrophilic, and the other two blocks B and C are hydrophobic in a dilute solution, have been investigated by the real-space implementation of self-consistent field theory (SCFT) in two dimensions (2D). In contrast to diblock copolymers in solution, the aggregation of...
متن کاملStochastic Multiconfigurational Self-Consistent Field Theory.
The multiconfigurational self-consistent field theory is considered the standard starting point for almost all multireference approaches required for strongly correlated molecular problems. The limitation of the approach is generally given by the number of strongly correlated orbitals in the molecule, since its cost will grow exponentially with this number. We present a new multiconfigurational...
متن کاملModel Representation for Self - Consistent - Field Theory of Isotropic Turbulence
In this paper, Langevin model equation is proposed for Fourier modes of velocity field of isotropic turbulence whose statistical properties are identical to those governed by equations of Self-Consistent-Field (SCF) theory of turbulence [J. R. Herring, Physics of Fluids 9, 2106 (1966)].
