| Abstract: | Monte Carlo simulations deal with crudely simplified but well-defined models and have the advantage that they treat the statistical thermodynamics of the considered model exactly (apart from statistical errors and problems due to finite size effects). Therefore, these simulations are well suited to test various approximate theories of block copolymer ordering, e.g. the self-consistent field theory. Recent examples of this approach include the study of block copolymer ordering at melt surfaces and confinement effects in thin films, adsorption of block copolymers at interfaces of unmixed homopolymer blends, the phase behavior of ternary mixtures of two homopolymers and their block copolymer, and micelle formation in selective solvents. |
