Phase diagram of hard asymmetric dumbbell particles
Using Monte Carlo simulations and free energy calculations, we study the phase behavior of hard asymmetric dumbbell particles with a constituent sphere diameter ratio of 0.5. We find a rich phase behavior with isotropic fluid, rotator, and periodic NaCl-based and both periodic and aperiodic CrB-based crystalline phases. The rotator phases found to be stable in this study are similar to those fo...
متن کاملPhase diagram of hard snowman-shaped particles.
We present the phase diagram of hard snowman-shaped particles calculated using Monte Carlo simulations and free energy calculations. The snowman particles consist of two hard spheres rigidly attached at their surfaces. We find a rich phase behavior with isotropic, plastic crystal, and aperiodic crystal phases. The crystalline phases found to be stable for a given sphere diameter ratio correspon...
متن کاملPhase diagram of highly asymmetric binary hard-sphere mixtures.
We study the phase behavior and structure of highly asymmetric binary hard-sphere mixtures. By first integrating out the degrees of freedom of the small spheres in the partition function we derive a formal expression for the effective Hamiltonian of the large spheres. Then using an explicit pairwise (depletion) potential approximation to this effective Hamiltonian in computer simulations, we de...
متن کاملPhase diagram of hard tetrahedra.
Advancements in the synthesis of faceted nanoparticles and colloids have spurred interest in the phase behavior of polyhedral shapes. Regular tetrahedra have attracted particular attention because they prefer local symmetries that are incompatible with periodicity. Two dense phases of regular tetrahedra have been reported recently. The densest known tetrahedron packing is achieved in a crystal ...
متن کاملPhase diagram of Janus particles.
We thoroughly investigate a simple model representative of the recently synthesized Janus particles, i.e., colloidal spherical particles whose surface is divided into two areas of different chemical composition. When the two surfaces are solvophilic and solvophobic, these particles constitute the simplest example of surfactants. The phase diagram includes a colloidal-poor (gas), colloidal-rich ...
