Many interesting physical, chemical and biological phenomena occur at interfaces between
nanometre-scale layers of soft condensed matter. These often complex systems lend …

Molecular dynamics simulations with generic bead–spring models have been instrumental
in revealing the molecular-scale behavior that underlies structure–property relationships of …

We study responses of thermally annealed ultrathin films deposited on silicon substrates
and containing polyzwitterions to applied electric fields by using specular neutron …

Ion-containing polymers often are good glass formers, and the glass transition temperature
is an important parameter to consider for practical applications, which prescribes the …

Artificial Intelligence (AI) approaches are increasingly being applied to more and more
domains of Science, Engineering, Chemistry, and Industries to not only improve efficiencies …

Diblock copolymers have been shown to undergo microphase separation due to an
interplay of repulsive interactions between dissimilar monomers, which leads to the …

Electrode-polymer interfaces dictate many of the properties of thin films such as capacitance,
the electric field experienced by polymers, and charge transport. However, structure and …

We present a molecular dynamics simulation study investigating the phase behavior of
lamellae-forming diblock copolymers with a single ionic junction on the backbone. Our …

Interpreting neutron reflectivity (NR) data using ad hoc multi-layer models and physics-
based models provides information about spatially resolved neutron scattering length …

We present an approach for constructing thermodynamically consistent time-dependent
models relevant to thin films of diblock copolymers in applied electric fields. The approach is …
