Abstract

Depletion interactions in colloidal suspensions confined between two parallel plates are investigated by using acceptance ratio method with grand canonical ensemble Monte Carlo simulation. The numerical results show that both the depletion potential and depletion force are affected by the confinement from the two parallel plates. Furthermore, it is found that in the grand canonical ensemble Monte Carlo simulation, the depletion interactions are strongly affected by the generalized chemical potential.
