Abstract
We present a Monte Carlo simulation of a polymer nematic liquid crystal for varying volume fractions, concentrating on the structure function of the sample. We achieve nematic ordering with stiff polymers made of spherical monomers that would otherwise not form a nematic state. Our results are in good qualitative agreement with theoretical and experimental predictions, most notably the bowtie pattern in the static structure function. © 1996 The American Physical Society.
