Abstract:
Polymer chain with one end absorbed to an infinitely large impenetrable wall on the simple cubic lattice is studied with Monte Carlo method.The mean square end-to-end distance <
R2> and the mean distance of mass center <
Z> from the wall are calculated.Results show that both <
R2> and <
Z> obey the scaling law, <
R2>=
αNγ,<
Z>=
βNη, where
N is chain length,while
γ,η,α, and
β are functions of the parameter
u(
u=e-
ε/kT,here
ε is interaction energy between any pair of framework atom of the chain,
k is the Boltzmann constant and
T is the absolute temperature).It is found that
γ increases from 1.01 to 1.19,and
η increases from 0.51 to 0.60 when
u decreases from 1 to 0.5.
