    Abstract

    The Gaussian random field formalism was used together with the Helfrich Hamiltonian to formulate a model for microemulsion systems with nonzero spontaneous curvature and asymmetric composition. In the model, it was possible to derive a microemulsion with fixed composition from a w/o structure through a bicontinuous structure to an o/w structure by changing the spontaneous curvature H0.
