论文摘要
基于先前数值计算的简化[Graf和Löwen,Phys。 Rev. e \ e \ textbf {59},1932年(1999年),我们提出了用于晶状体A液晶相的代数自由能表达式和硬球形固定器的晶体阶段。对于结果的状态方程,发现了与模拟的定量一致性。自由能表达式可用于直接计算所有长宽比的全相行为,并提供合适的基准,以探索有吸引力的Interod相互作用如何通过扰动方法(例如自由销售或范德华理论)介导相位稳定性。
Based on simplifications of previous numerical calculations [Graf and Löwen, Phys. Rev. E \textbf{59}, 1932 (1999)], we propose algebraic free energy expressions for the smectic-A liquid crystal phase and the crystal phases of hard spherocylinders. Quantitative agreement with simulations is found for the resulting equations of state. The free energy expressions can be used to straightforwardly compute the full phase behavior for all aspect ratios and to provide a suitable benchmark for exploring how attractive interrod interactions mediate the phase stability through perturbation approaches such as free-volume or van der Waals theory.
