Abstract

We present an extensive set of simulation results for the relaxation processes of linear polymer chains embedded in post arrays using Monte Carlo algorithm. The comparison of different end-to-end relaxation functions shows that polymer chains exhibit reptation in post arrays. The relaxation is almost pure reptation for small array spacing while contour length fluctuation plays a role for large array spacing.
