Abstract

The tilted lamellar phase of a symmetric rod–coil diblock copolymer is studied by dissipative particle dynamics simulation over a wide range of degrees of block segregation. The microphase separation in the copolymer and the orientational ordering of rigid blocks in the tilted phase are investigated. For the first time, spatial profiles of the orientational order parameter and the density of monomer units of rigid and flexible blocks at various values of χN are calculated and the influence of this parameter on the value of the tilt angle is studied.
