Casimir amplitudes and capillary condensation of near-critical fluids between parallel plates: Renormalized local functional theory

Abstract: We investigate the critical behavior of a near-critical fluid confined between two parallel plates in contact with a reservoir by calculating the order parameter profile and the Casimir amplitudes (for the force density and for the grand potential). Our results are applicable to one-component fluids and binary mixtures. We assume that the walls absorb one of the fluid components selectively for binary mixtures. We propose a renormalized local functional theory accounting for the fluctuation effects. Analysis i… Show more

“…Recently, we calculated phase diagrams of capillary condensation 47 and bridging 48 . We stress that the solvent-mediated interaction can be much enhanced near these transitions even in pretransitional states (before local phase separation) 10,13,47,48,50 . We also examined the dynamics of capillary condensation 49 .…”

“…Notice that the fluctuation-induced interaction 65 is much weaker than the adsorption-induced one (with inhomogeneous ψ ) 8,55 . In fact, the Casimir amplitudes at h 1 = 0 (in the Neumann boundary condition) 66 are much smaller than those under strong adsorption by one order of magnitude [9][10][11][12]47,56,57 .…”
