Resistance scaling at the Kosterlitz-Thouless transition.

چکیده
We study the linear resistance at the Kosterlitz–Thouless transition by Monte Carlo simulation of vortex dynamics. Finite size scaling analysis of our data show excellent agreement with scaling properties of the Kosterlitz–Thouless transition. We also compare our results for the linear resistance with experiments. By adjusting the vortex chemical potential to an optimum value, the resistance at temperatures above the transition temperature agrees well with experiments over many decades.

N ov 1 99 6 The Kosterlitz – Thouless Universality Class
We examine the Kosterlitz–Thouless universality class and show that essential scaling at this type of phase transition is not self– consistent unless multiplicative logarithmic corrections are included. In the case of specific heat these logarithmic corrections are identified analytically. To identify those corresponding to the susceptibility we set up a numerical method involving the finite–si...
متن کاملThe Kosterlitz–thouless Universality Class
We examine the Kosterlitz–Thouless universality class and show that conventional (essential) scaling at this type of phase transition is self–consistent only if modified by multiplicative logarithmic corrections. In the case of specific heat these logarithmic corrections are identified analytically. To identify those corresponding to the susceptibility we set up a numerical method involving the...
متن کاملDynamic Simulations of the Kosterlitz-Thouless Phase Transition
Based on the short-time dynamic scaling form, a novel dynamic approach is proposed to tackle numerically the Kosterlitz-Thouless phase transition. Taking the two-dimensional XY model as an example, the exponential divergence of the spatial correlation length, the transition temperature TKT and all critical exponents are computed. Compared with Monte Carlo simulations in equilibrium, we obtain d...
متن کاملEvidence for Kosterlitz-Thouless-type orientational ordering of CF3Br monolayers physisorbed on graphite
Monolayers of the halomethane CF3Br adsorbed on graphite have been investigated by x-ray diffraction. The layers crystallize in a commensurate triangular lattice. On cooling they approach a three-sublattice antiferroelectric pattern of the in-plane components of the dipole moments. The ordering is not consistent with a conventional phase transition, but points to Kosterlitz-Thouless behavior. I...
متن کاملKosterlitz-Thouless transition in thin films: A Monte Carlo study of three-dimensional lattice models
We study the phase transition of thin films in the three-dimensional XY universality class. To this end, we perform a Monte Carlo study of the improved two-component φ4 model, the improved dynamically diluted XY model and the standard XY model on the simple cubic lattice. We study films of a thickness up to L0 = 32 lattice spacings. In the short direction of the lattice free boundary conditions...
