Two-Stage Ordering Kinetics in Binary Mixtures of Ellipsoidal Particles

We investigate the nonequilibrium phase-ordering kinetics of a binary mixture of uniaxial ellipsoidal particles interacting via the anisotropic Gay-Berne potential using large-scale molecular dynamics simulations. Following a temperature quench from the isotropic and homogeneous phase into the coexistence region, the s...
