Equilibrium phase diagram of a randomly pinned glass-former.
We use computer simulations to study the thermodynamic properties of a glass-former in which a fraction c of the particles has been permanently frozen. By thermodynamic integration, we determine the Kauzmann, or ideal glass transition, temperature [Formula: see text] at which the configurational entropy vanishes. This is done without resorting to any kind of extrapolation, i.e., [Formula: see t...
متن کاملDynamics of Glass Forming Liquids with Randomly Pinned Particles
It is frequently assumed that in the limit of vanishing cooling rate, the glass transition phenomenon becomes a thermodynamic transition at a temperature TK. However, with any finite cooling rate, the system falls out of equilibrium at temperatures near Tg(>TK), implying that the very existence of the putative thermodynamic phase transition at TK can be questioned. Recent studies of systems wit...
متن کاملEquilibrium Phase Behavior of a Continuous-Space Microphase Former.
Periodic microphases universally emerge in systems for which short-range interparticle attraction is frustrated by long-range repulsion. The morphological richness of these phases makes them desirable material targets, but our relatively coarse understanding of even simple models hinders controlling their assembly. We report here the solution of the equilibrium phase behavior of a microscopic m...
متن کاملVanishing of configurational entropy may not imply an ideal glass transition in randomly pinned liquids.
The paper by Ozawa et al. (1) presents numerical results for the configurational entropy density, sc, of a model glass-forming liquid in the presence of random pinning. The location of a “phase boundary” in the pin density (c)− temperature (T) plane, which separates an “ideal glass” phase from the supercooled liquid phase, is obtained by finding the points at which scðT , cÞ→ 0. According to th...
متن کاملThe phase diagram of molten randomly grafted copolymers
We study the microphase segregation of molten randomly grafted copolymers ~RGCs! using a Landau field theory. Under one wave number approximation, we find three equilibrium ordered microphases: lamellar phase ~LAM!, hexagonal cylinder phase ~HEX!, and bcc sphere phase ~BCC!. The stability of these phases strongly depends on the architectural parameters describing the RGC chains ~e.g., the backb...
