Statistical-Mechanical Calculations of the Surface Free Energy and Anchoring Transitions

Pages 129-136 | Published online: 04 Oct 2006
 

Abstract

A statistical-mechanical theory which takes into account the correlations between translational-translational, orientational-orientational and mixed correlations, based upon the method of conditional distribution functions, is applied to calculations of the surface free energy and anchoring transitions of a system composed of interacting ellipsoidal molecules near an interacting wall.
