Abstract
The coupling effects of depletion interactions in three-sphere systems with different size ratio of large- to small-sphere are studied by Monte Carlosimulations in this paper. The numerical results show that this coupling effect is affected by the size ratio of large- to small-sphere: the larger the size ratio is, the larger the coupling effect will be .
