Critical Behavior of Interfaces: Roughening and Wetting Phenomena
The critical behavior of interfaces is discussed from a theoretical point of view. Two classes of critical phenomena will be considered: (i) Roughening phenomena related to changes in the interfacial morphology; and (ii) Wetting phenomena related to changes in the interfacial structure. In two dimensions, the critical behavior can be determined exactly for a variety of models. As a result, one ...
متن کاملComplete Wetting of Gluons and Gluinos *
Complete wetting is a universal phenomenon associated with interfaces separating coexisting phases. For example, in the pure gluon theory , at T c an interface separating two distinct high-temperature de-confined phases splits into two confined-deconfined interfaces with a complete wetting layer of confined phase between them. In supersym-metric Yang-Mills theory, distinct confined phases may c...
متن کاملInterface dynamics and kinetic roughening in fractals.
We consider the dynamics and kinetic roughening of single-valued interfaces in two-dimensional fractal media. Assuming that the local height difference distribution function of the fronts obeys Levý statistics with a well-defined power-law decay exponent, we derive analytic expressions for the local scaling exponents. We also show that the kinetic roughening of the interfaces displays anomalous...
متن کاملDynamics of surface roughening with quenched disorder.
We study the dynamical exponent z for the directed percolation depinning (DPD) class of models for surface roughening in the presence of quenched disorder. We argue that z for d 1 1 dimensions is equal to the exponent dmin characterizing the shortest path between two sites in an isotropic percolation cluster in d dimensions. To test the argument, we perform simulations and calculate z for DPD, ...
متن کاملEquilibration dynamics of wetting layers
A direct and quantitative investigation of the transport kinetics of wetting layers is presented. The temporal decay of pulsed laser induced spatial thickness modulations in liquid ethanol f~ lms on a silver surface is monitored by means of optically excited surface plarrnons. Our method allows zn distinguish between different equilibration mechanisms. Under the condit~ons In our experiments. t...
