Monte Carlo simulation of polymers at interfaces

Author

Abstract

Polymers at interfaces pose challenging problems to statistical physics because their configurations often differ greatly from the bulk. Computer simulation of coarse-grained models then gives valuable insight and allows stringent tests of various theoretical predictions. Three examples are briefly treated: chain configurations of B-chains in the surface-enriched B-rich layer of an (AB) binary polymer mixture; “frustrated” lamellar ordering in ultra-thin block-copolymer films; and the collapse of polymer brushes in bad solvents.
