Investigating the kinetics of single-chain expansion upon release in theta conditions

Abstract The free expansion of a confined chain in theta solvents following a sudden removal of the confining constraint is investigated using Langevin dynamics simulations in both two- and three-dimensional spaces. The average evolution of the chain size exhibits a sigmoidal transition between the...
