AbstractThe sedimentation of a two dimensional suspension containing rods was studied by means of kinetic Monte Carlo (MC) simulations. An off-lattice model with continuous positional and orientational degrees of freedom was considered. The initial state before sedimentation was produced using a model of random sequential adsorption. During such sedimentation, the rods undergo translational and rotational Brownian motions. The MC simulations were run at different initial number densities (the numbers of rods per unit area), $ ho_i$, and sedimentation rates, $u$. For sediment films, the spatial distributions of the rods, the order parameters and the electrical conductivities were examined. Different types of sedimentation-driven self-assembly and anisotropy of the electrical conductivity were revealed inside the sediment films. This anisotropy can be finely regulated by changes in the values of $ ho_i$ and $u$.
