Phase transitions and ordering of confined dipolar fluids.
We apply a modified mean-field density functional theory to determine the phase behavior of Stockmayer fluids in slit-like pores formed by two walls with identical substrate potentials. Based on the Carnahan-Starling equation of state, a fundamental-measure theory is employed to incorporate the effects of short-ranged hard-sphere-like correlations while the long-ranged contributions to the flui...
متن کاملGlobal phase diagrams for dipolar fluids.
Fluids of molecules or particles interacting through dipole forces describe polar liquids and colloidal suspensions such as ferroQuids and electrorheological fluids. Phase diagrams for systems with strong dipolar coupling are not precisely known. Possible liquid state phase transitions include phase separation and spontaneous polarization. We present a set of generic phase diagrams for the Huid...
متن کاملPhase transitions in confined water nanofilms
Bulk water has three phases: solid, liquid and vapour. In addition to undergoing a phase transition (of the first order) between them, liquid and vapour can deform continuously into each other without crossing a transition line—in other words, there is no intrinsic distinction between the two phases. Hence, the first-order line of the liquid–vapour phase transition should terminate at a critica...
متن کاملPhase transitions of fluids in novel geometries
The discovery of carbon nanotubes implied that one-dimensional models of theoretical physics can be tested in the laboratory. This talk describes a series of studies concerning gases within, outside and between nanotubes and bundles of carbon nanotubes (similar to spaghetti in a box) and other regular porous materials. The results, surprising in some cases, yield behavior corresponding to 1, 2,...
متن کاملInterfacial phase transitions in conducting fluids.
We present a review, largely based on recent experimental work of our group, on phase transitions at interfaces of fluid metals, alloys and ionic liquids. After a brief analysis of possible experimental errors and limitations of surface sensitive methods, we first deal with first-order wetting transitions at the liquid/vapour and liquid/wall interface in systems such as Ga-based alloys, K-KCl m...
