  • Title: Hydrodynamic interactions in ordering process of two-dimensional quenched block copolymers.
    Author: Yokojima Y, Shiwa Y.
    Journal: Phys Rev E Stat Nonlin Soft Matter Phys; 2002 May; 65(5 Pt 2):056308. PubMed ID: 12059704.
    Abstract:
    The hydrodynamic coarsening of microphase separation in two-dimensional diblock copolymers is studied using numerical simulations. Results for symmetric and asymmetric block copolymers are compared. In contrast to the formation of the hexagonal phase where hydrodynamic flow appears not to be effective in enhancing domain coarsening, the late-time evolution of the lamellar phase proceeds faster, thus leading to a different power-law scaling with the addition of coupling of the velocity field to the order parameter.
