Modeling the free energy functional at the fluid-solid transition in classical many-particle systems
The problem of phase equilibrium in colloidal and classical atomistic systems is of great interest in modern micro/nano fabrication and self-assembly processes. Systems with specific potential interactions are increasingly being developed and knowledge of their phase diagrams would aid in their use...
