Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Significance We demonstrate that low-molecular weight asymmetric diblock copolymer melts can form multiple metastable liquid states at a common temperature, dependent on the processing history. Formation of ordered self-assembled micelles at low temperatures shapes the number density of the mesoscopic particles, which is preserved upon heating above the order–disorder transition temperature. Cooling returns the liquid to the same crystalline state reflecting a memory—a type of hidden symmetry—imprinted in the fluid. These surprising results are explained based on the large energetic penalty associated with fusing or fragmenting micelles in the highly structured liquid state. This work reveals concepts related to spontaneous symmetry breaking in self-assembled soft materials including surfactant-based systems.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
