Abstract: We use multibody dissipative particle dynamics method to investigate the thin film formed by self-assembly of block copolymer on attractive surface under evaporation condition. We consider the composition effect on the morphology of diblock and triblock copolymer thin film. We obtain disorder and lamellar morpho-logy and give the time evolution of the order parameter and the film thickness. The results reveal that the composition of block copolymer effects on the order parameter rather than the film thickness. If one of the compositions is shorter, it is easily to form disorder morphology with lower order parameter. On the other hand, it is easily to form lamellar morphology with higher order parameter.
