胶体和大分子均匀成核的动力学理论

A dynamical theory of homogeneous nucleation for colloids and macromolecules

James F. Lutsko

摘要:

均质成核的上下文中制定的波动流体动力学。结果表明,对于一个胶体或大分子系统中的强阻尼限制的最有可能的路径成核可以确定由一个非平凡的度量固定的动力学密度空间中的梯度下降。该理论提供了一个理由和扩展的启发式平衡方法的基础上,完全自由能。它是说明应用到液体-蒸气成核,它示出,在最自由的能量为基础的研究,最小的集群对应于长波长,小振幅的扰动。

英文摘要:

Homogeneous nucleation is formulated within the context of fluctuating hydrodynamics. It is shown that for a colloidal or macromolecular system in the strong damping limit the most likely path for nucleation can be determined by gradient descent in density space governed by a nontrivial metric fixed by the dynamics. The theory provides a justification and extension of more heuristic equilibrium approaches based solely on the free energy. It is illustrated by application to liquid-vapor nucleation where it is shown that, in contrast to most free energy-based studies, the smallest clusters correspond to long wavelength, small amplitude perturbations.
