AbstractDissipative particle dynamics simulations are performed to study the self-assembly of rod-coil (RC) diblock copolymers confined in a slit with two coil-selective surfaces. The effect of rod length and slit thickness on the assembly structure is investigated. A morphological phase diagram as a function of slit thickness and rod length is presented. We observe several ordered structures, such as perpendicular cylinders, parallel cylinders, and puck-shaped structure. In the assembly structures, long-range rod-rod orientational order is observed when the rod length exceeds a critical rod length. Our results show that the coil-selective slit influences the assembly structure as well as the rod orientation of RC diblock copolymers.
