Random sequential adsorption of monomers with evaporation: exact results and application to ionic self-assembly

POSTER

Abstract

We present an exact solution for the time-dependent particle density for a general random sequential adsorption model with evaporation. We relate this model to the experimental technique of ionic self-assembly of nanoparticles. We discuss the usefulness and the limitations of our model by comparing it to both Monte Carlo simulations and experimental results.
