چکیده

We investigate by exact optimization methods the roughening of two and three-dimensional systems of elastic lines with point disorder and hard-core repulsion with open boundary conditions. In 2d we find logarithmic behavior whereas in 3d simple random walk -like behavior. The line ’forests’ become asymptotically completely entangled as the system height is increased at fixed line density due to increasing line wandering.

Polynomial combinatorial optimization methods for analysing the ground states of disordered systems

We discuss the application of polynomial combinatorial optimization algorithms to extract the universal zero-temperature properties of various disordered systems. Dijkstras algorithm is used for models of non-directed elastic lines on general regular graphs with isotropically correlated random potentials. The successive shortest path algorithm for minimum-costflow problems is applied for the st...

A Hard Convex Core Yukawa Equation of State for Nonassociated Chain Molecules

The compressibility factor of nonassociated chain molecules composed of hard convex core Yukawa segments was derived with SAFT-VR and an extension of the Barker-Henderson perturbation theory for convex bodies. The temperature-dependent chain and dispersion compressibility factors were derived using the Yukawa potential. The effects of temperature, packing fraction, and segment number on the com...

Preroughening transitions in a model for Si and Ge (001) type crystal surfaces

The uniaxial structure of Si and Ge (001) facets leads to nontrivial topological properties of steps and hence to interesting equilibrium phase transitions. The disordered flat phase and the preroughening transition can be stabilized without the need for step-step interactions. A model describing this is studied numerically by transfer matrix type finite-size-scaling of interface free energies....

Inhibiting strain-induced surface roughening: dislocation-free Ge/Si and Ge/SiGe core-shell nanowires.

Elastic strain is a critical factor in engineering the electronic behavior of core-shell semiconductor nanowires and provides the driving force for undesirable surface roughening and defect formation. We demonstrate two independent strategies, chlorine surface passivation and growth of nanowires with low-energy sidewall facets, to avoid strain-induced surface roughening that promotes dislocatio...
