Abstract
We report the results of large-scale molecular dynamics simulations of adsorption nanoparticles on solid surfaces. The particles were modeled as stiff aggregates of spherical segments. Three types of particles were studied: rods, rectangles, and triangles built of the same number of segments. We show how the particle shape affects the adsorption, the structure of the surface layer, and the degree of the removal of particles from the solvent. The systems with different segment-segment and segment-surface interactions and different concentrations of particles were investigated. The ordered structures formed in adsorption monolayers were also analyzed. The results are consistent with experimental observations.
