Description
We propose a field theoretical approach to a polymer whose
backbone is made of Janus particles. The field theory is solved using
the saddle point approximation and the Random Phase Approximation
valid for a dense polymer. We calculate the free energy density,
the radius of gyration, and the Janus clusters concentrations.
