Abstract
The complex microstructures assembled by amphiphilic diblock copolymer in dilute solution have been investigated by the application of real-space self-consistent field theory in two-dimensional space. Different micelles, such as spherelike micelles, rodlike micelles, and vesicles are produced. The simulations show that vesicles are metastable in dilute solution within a certain range of some parameters. The mechanism for the formation of micromorphologies, especial vesicles, is discussed.
