Analytic density-functional self-consistent-field theory of diblock copolymers near patterned surfaces.

Analytical solutions are derived for the density profiles and the free energies of compressible diblock copolymer melts (or incompressible copolymer solutions) near patterned surfaces. The density-functional self-consistent-field theory is employed along with a Gaussian chain model for bonding constraints and a random mixing approximation for nonbonded interactions. An analytical solution is rendered possible by expanding the chain distribution function around an inhomogeneous reference state with a nontrivial analytical solution, by retaining the linear terms, and by requiring consistency with the homopolymer limit. The density profiles are determined by both real and complex roots of a sixth-degree polynomial that may easily be obtained by solving a generalized eigenvalue problem. This analytical formulation enables one to efficiently explore the large nine-dimensional parameter space and can serve as a first approximation to computationally intensive studies with more detailed models. Illustrative computations are provided for uniform and patterned surfaces above the order-disorder transition. The results are consistent with the previous self-consistent-field calculations in that lamellar ordering appears near the surface above the order-disorder transition and the lamella order perpendicular or parallel to the surface depending on the commensurability between the periods of the surface pattern and the density oscillations.
