Uniform energy and density distribution: diblock copolymers’ functional

We study a nonlocal variational problem arising in diblock copolymers models, whose energy is given by the Cahn–Hilliard functional plus a long-range interaction term. We prove that minimizers develop uniform energy and density distributions, thus justifying partially the highly regular microphase s...

description We study a nonlocal variational problem arising in diblock copolymers models, whose energy is given by the Cahn–Hilliard functional plus a long-range interaction term. We prove that minimizers develop uniform energy and density distributions, thus justifying partially the highly regular microphase separation observed in diblock copolymers’ melts. We also give a new proof of the scaling law for the minimum energy. This work extends the techniques introduced in [1] where analogous results are proved for the sharp interface limit of the functional considered.
