Mixing Plate-Like and Rod-Like Molecules With Solvent: A Test of Flory-Huggins Lattice Statistics
Boehm and Martire have shown that the Flory-Huggins (FH) lattice model applied to mixtures of squares and rigid rods in solvent on a two dimensional lattice gives different results depending on whether rods or squares are placed first onto the lattice. This correct derivation places the validity of the FH model itself into question since the final result should be independent of the order of pl...
متن کاملThermotropic cubic and tetragonal phases made of rod-like molecules.
Systematic studies on three dimensionally ordered liquid crystalline phases of different cubic and tetragonal symmetries are presented. The structures of the phases are determined by reconstruction of the electron density distribution from the X-ray diffraction patterns. The known models for electron densities in cubic structures were used whereas a new theoretical model for the structure of th...
متن کاملMultiscale simulations for suspensions of rod-like molecules
We study the Doi model for suspensions of rod–like molecules. The Doi model couples a microscopic Fokker–Planck type equation (Smoluchowski equation) to the macroscopic Stokes equation. The Smoluchowski equation describes the evolution of the distribution of the rod orientations; it comes as a drift–diffusion equation on the sphere at every point in physical space. For sufficiently high macrosc...
متن کاملTransient electric dichroism of rod-like DNA molecules.
We report transient electric dichroism studies on monodisperse rod-like DNA molecules. By using restriction fragments and DNAs of known length, it is shown that the orientation time is accurately predicted by the theoretically calculated rotational diffusion coefficient. The field dependence of the steady-state dichroism values is not consistent with the induced electric dipole orientation mech...
متن کاملThe mechanics of short rod-like molecules in tension
The rapid development of single molecule experimental techniques in the last two decades has made it possible to accurately measure the force-extension response as well as the transverse fluctuations of individual rod-like macromolecules. This information is used in conjunction with a statistical mechanical model based on the treatment of the molecule as a fluctuating elastic rod to extract its...
