Molecular dynamics studies of straight-chain alkanes diffusion in SiO2 ceramic versus Bosanquet formula
Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations were applied to calculate self-diffusion coefficients (Di ) and heats of adsorption for ethane, propane and n-butane. The simulations were done in temperature range of 300-525 K for various concentrations inside the pores of silicalite type zeolite. The calculated values of self-diffusion coefficients and heats of adsorption resulted from the current wo...
متن کاملAddition of P3HT-grafted Silica nanoparticles improves bulk-heterojunction morphology in P3HT-PCBM blends
We present molecular dynamics simulations of a ternary blend of P3HT, PCBM and P3HT-grafted silica nanoparticles (SiNP) for applications in polymer-based solar cells. Using coarse-grained models, we study the effect of SiNP on the spatial arrangement of PCBM in P3HT. Our results suggest that addition of SiNP not only alters the morphology of PCBM clusters but also improves the crystallinity of ...
متن کاملExciton diffusion and charge transfer dynamics in nano phase-separated P3HT/PCBM blend films.
Exciton quenching dynamics has been systematically studied in pristine P3HT and nano phase separated P3HT/PCBM blend films under various excitation intensities by femtosecond fluorescence up-conversion technique. The behaviors of excitons in the films can be well described by a three-dimensional diffusion model. The small diffusion length and large charge transfer radius indicate that excitons ...
متن کاملDynamic Heterogeneity in Fully Miscible Polymer Blends through Molecular Simulations
SUMMARY: The effect of self-concentration and intermolecular packing on the dynamics of polymer miscible blends is examined by extensive atomistic simulations. Direct information on local structure of the blend system allows a quantitative calculation of selfand effective composition terms at various length scales that are introduced to proposed models of blend dynamics. Through a detailed stat...
متن کاملThe Effect of Molecular Structure and Environment on the Miscibility and Diffusivity in Polythiophene-Methanofullerene Bulk Heterojunctions: Theory and Modeling with the RISM Approach
Although better means to model the properties of bulk heterojunction molecular blends are much needed in the field of organic optoelectronics, only a small subset of methods based on molecular dynamicsand Monte Carlo-based approaches have been hitherto employed to guide or replace empirical characterization and testing. Here, we present the first use of the integral equation theory of molecular...
