    The isotropic–nematic phase transition in hard, slightly curved, lens-like particles (2014)
    American Institute of Physics (AIP)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-10-18
    Description: Monte Carlo numerical simulations are used to study in detail how the characteristics of the isotropic–nematic phase transition change as infinitely thin hard platelets are bent into shallow lens-like particles. First, this phase transition in the former reference model system is re-examined and more accurately located. Then, it is shown quantitatively that this already quite weak but distinctly first-order phase transition weakens further upon curving the platelets to such an extent that, thanks to the thinness of these particles that does not favor its pre-emptying by a transition to a (partially) positionally ordered phase, an isotropic-nematic tricritical point limit can be arbitrarily closely approached.
