Phase Behaviour of Amphiphilic Monolayers: Theory and Simulation
نویسنده
چکیده
Coarse grained models of monolayers of amphiphiles (Langmuir monolayers) have been studied theoretically and by computer simulations. We discuss some of the insights obtained with this approach, and present new simulation results which show that idealised models can successfully reproduce essential aspects of the generic phase behaviour of Langmuir monolayers.

Amphiphiles at Interfaces: Simulation of Structure and Phase Behavior
Here we focus on model systems for amphiphilic membranes. After a brief general introduction, we present selected simulation results on monolayers, bilayers, and bilayer stacks. First, we discuss internal phase transitions in membranes and show that idealized models reproduce the generic phase behavior. Then we consider membrane fluctuations and membrane defects. The simulation data is compared...

متن کاملDensity functional explorations of quadrupole coupling constants for BN, BP, AlN, and AlP graphene–like structures
Stabilizations and atomic level quadrupole coupling constant (CQ) properties have been investigated for graphene–like monolayers (G–monolayers) of boron nitride (BN), boron phosphide (BP), aluminum nitride (AlN), and aluminum phosphide (AlP) structures. To this aim, density functional theory (DFT) calculations have been performed to optimize the model structures and also to evaluate the CQ para...
