摘要: The present work is devoted to a study of the molecular mechanisms of the crystallization of polymer chains induced by graphene by using molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. From the atomic configuration translation, the number distribution of the atoms, and the order parameter S, the crystallization process can be summarized in two steps, the adsorption and the orientation. By analyzing the diffusion properties of the polymer chains, we find that a graphene substrate has a great adsorption for the polymer molecules and the polymer molecules need more time to adjust their configurations. Therefore, the adsorption step and the orientation step are highly cooperative.
