title: Adsorption of colloidal particles on a charged surface: cluster Monte Carlo simulations.
abstract: We investigate the adsorption of colloidal particles on a charged surface by the cluster Monte Carlo simulation. Under the primitive model of asymmetric electrolytes, the density profiles of colloidal particles at a surface are analyzed as a function of the electrostatic coupling parameter. In the strong coupling regime numerical results show the like-charged adsorption between colloidal particles and a charged surface, which cannot be explained by the Derjaguin-Landau-Verwey-Overbeek theory.
