Binary phase diagrams of transition elements

Crystal-liquid crystal binary phase diagrams.

We propose a new theoretical scheme for the binary phase diagrams of crystal-liquid crystal mixtures by a combination of a phase field model of solidification, the Flory-Huggins theory for liquid-liquid mixing and Maier-Saupe-McMillan (FH-MSM) model for nematic and smectic liquid crystal orderings. The phase field theory describes the crystal phase transition of anisotropic organic crystal and/...

Liquid-crystal phase diagrams of binary mixtures of hard spherocylinders.

We have built the liquid crystal phase diagram of several binary mixtures of freely rotating hard spherocylinders employing a second-order virial density functional theory with Parsons scaling, suitably generalized to deal with mixtures and smectic phases. The components have the same diameter and aspect ratio of moderate value, typical of many mesogens. Attention has been paid to smectic-smect...

Phase diagrams of binary mixtures of oppositely charged colloids.

Phase diagrams of binary mixtures of oppositely charged colloids are calculated theoretically. The proposed mean-field-like formalism interpolates between the limits of a hard-sphere system at high temperatures and the colloidal crystals which minimize Madelung-like energy sums at low temperatures. Comparison with computer simulations of an equimolar mixture of oppositely charged, equally sized...
