We study the behavior of systems in which the interaction contains a long-range component that does not dominate the critical
behavior. Such a component is exemplified by the van der Waals force between molecules in a simple liquid-vapor system. In
the context of the mean spherical model with periodic boundary conditions we are able to identify, for temperatures close
above T
c, finite-size contributions due to the subleading term in the interaction that are dominant in this region decaying algebraically as a function of L. This mechanism goes beyond the standard formulation of the finite-size scaling but is to be expected in real physical systems.
We also discuss other ways in which critical point behavior is modified that are of relevance for analysis of Monte Carlo
simulations of such systems.

Ordering of dysprosium on Mo(112) up to 1.5 monolayers has been investigated by LEED and work function analysis after adsorption
at 100 K and annealing between 200 and 1000 K. At low annealing temperatures (< 350-600 K) ordered structures are found, which
are changed or even destroyed irreversibly by annealing steps to higher temperatures. At coverages, θ, up to 0.3 monolayer
a (6×1) not strictly commensurate chain structure is seen, which coexists up to θ = 0.58 with a one-dimensionally incommensurate
c( 1.56×2) structure. At higher coverages up to the physical monolayer at θ≈ 0.77, incommensurate ( n×2) followed by oblique ( n×1) structures are seen with n continuously variable with coverage. The second layer forms a p (1.33×1) structure. Annealing to higher temperatures causes
irreversible structural transitions with strongly coverage dependent properties. Up to θ = 0.58, only a glass-like disordered
phase is formed, which cannot be ordered again. In contrast, the rectangular incommensurate structures between 0.58 < θ <
0.68 remain unchanged upon annealing, whereas the structures at higher coverages and those of the second layer are transformed
into commensurate (s×1) structures with integer s. Geometrical models are presented for the non-annealed structures and possible origins for the two-dimensional concentration
dependent vitrification of the Dy layers are discussed.

We employ off-lattice Monte Carlo simulations to study lateral diffusion in lipid-sterol bilayers using a two-dimensional
model system which has been designed to simulate the experimental phase diagrams of both lipid-cholesterol and lipid-lanosterol
systems. We focus on the effects of varying sterol concentration and temperature on the tracer diffusion coefficient, D, which characterizes the lateral motion of single tagged lipids in a bilayer. Generally, we find that increasing the cholesterol
concentration suppresses D due to an increased conformational ordering of lipid chains. We argue that this effect competes with an increase in the average
free area per lipid, which favours an increase in D. At temperatures close to the main transition temperature, the competition between the two effects leads to intriguing behavior
of D. Overall, the model results are in excellent qualitative agreement with available experimental results for lipid-cholesterol
mixtures. Additional studies of a model lipid-lanosterol system, for which experimental diffusion results are not available,
predict that the presence of lanosterol has a smaller effect than cholesterol on reducing D relative to the pure lipid system. We conclude that the molecular model employed contains the essential features required
to describe many of the qualitative features of the lateral diffusion behavior in lipid-sterol systems.

We have investigated the adsorption of Ba on the Si(111) surface at elevated temperatures by using high-resolution electron-energy-loss
spectroscopy, low-energy-electron diffraction, and photoelectron spectroscopy with synchrotron photons. We found two new ordered
phases 2×1a and 2×1bwith increasing Ba coverage in addition to other ordered phases reported earlier. All the ordered surfaces
were found to remain semiconducting with a hybridization band gap of ∼1.1 eV almost independent of Ba coverage. We discuss
evidence for the evolution of a Ba s-s hybridization band for Ba coverage beyond 0.5 monolayers and propose structural models
for the three ordered phases, which are quite consistent with our experimental data.

We have studied high-order harmonic generation (HHG) from organic molecules irradiated with near-infrared high intensity laser
pulses of 70 fs and 240 fs duration. The molecular systems studied were the aromatics benzene and naphthalene and the alkanes
cyclopropane and cyclohexane (cyclic) and n-hexane (linear). Harmonic intensities were measured both as a function of laser intensity (in the range 5×1013-5×1015 W cm-2) and as a function of ellipticity of the laser field polarisation. The results were compared with those from the xenon atom.
For 70 fs pulses, harmonic generation from the organic systems was similar to that of xenon, revealing an atom-like behaviour
for molecules when the laser pulse duration is shorter than the fragmentation timescale of the molecule. We note significant
differences between molecules with respect to HHG efficiencies and the suppression of HHG in larger species. We discuss these
differences in the context of the molecular properties, electronic structure and behaviour of ionisation and fragmentation
that result in enhancement of field ionisation in larger systems. Study of the polarisation ellipticity dependence of HHG
shows that the harmonic yield in molecules is less sensitive to the polarisation than for atoms (xenon). This is consistent
with the expected behaviour given the larger recollision cross-section presented by the core in the molecular system compared
to the atom. Our results suggest that study of HHG from molecules exposed to ultra-short pulses is potentially a powerful
tool for understanding the electron dynamics of molecules exposed to an intense field.

Characteristics of the Stark broadened and overlapping 447.1 nm He I spectral line and its forbidden 447.0 nm components have
been measured at electron densities between 4.4×1022 m-3 and 8.2×1022 m-3 and electron temperatures between 18 000 K and 33 000 K in plasmas created in five various discharge conditions using the
low pressure pulsed arc as an optically thin plasma source operated in helium-nitrogen-oxygen gas mixture. Good agreement
was found among our measured line characteristics and their existing calculated values, based on the quasistatic approximation.
Possible influence of the singly ionized oxygen impurity atoms (O II) on the intensity values of the dip between allowed and
forbidden components was found that can explain the disagreement among some existing experimental and calculated line characteristics
data, at higher electron temperatures and densities. On the basis of the observed asymmetry of the 447.1 nm spectral line
profile we have obtained the ion contribution parameter at 1022 m-3 electron density and 8 000 K electron temperature.

We study the phase behavior of solutions consisting of positive and negative ions of valence z to which a third ionic species of valence Z>z is added. Using a discretized Debye-Hückel theory, we analyze the phase behavior of such systems for different values of

as function of charge asymmetry and temperature, and show the complete phase diagrams for the experimentally relevant cases

The one-triplet excitation spectra and thermodynamic properties for the dimerized phase of the frustrated bilayer Heisenberg
model are studied using strong-coupling expansion theory. The model has an exact dimerized ground state as well as exact one-triplet
excitations in a special case that the frustration J2 is equal to the in-plane coupling J1. We demonstrate that the models with and without frustrations have distinct excitation spectra, so their thermodynamic properties
exhibit quite different behaviors. Especially, the low-temperature behaviors of the frustrated model with J
1=J
2 are independent of the inter-dimer couplings, due to the exact one-triplet excitations.

We present an ab initio study of the magnetic surface reconstructions of the B2 FeV alloy using a self-consistent tight-binding linearized muffin
tin orbital method developed in the atomic spheres approximation. For (001) and (111), the surface reconstruction stabilizes
configurations unstable in the bulk alloy. When Fe is at the (001) surface, a c(2×2) in-plane antiferromagnetic order is found to be the ground state with magnetic moments of -2.32 and 2.27. A p(1×1) ↓ ferromagnetic order is displayed in case of V toplayer with a magnetic moment of -1.83. At the (111) surface, we obtain for Fe toplayer two solutions p(1×1)↑ and p(2×1). The configuration p(1×1)↑ is found to be the ground state with a magnetic moment per atom of 2.34. For V toplayer, only the p(1×1) ↓ solution is obtained with a moment of -0.84. In all cases, the Fe-V coupling is always antiparallel like in the bulk. Our results are discussed and compared to experiments.

The theory of light scattering for a system of linear molecules with anisotropic polarizabilities is considered. As a starting
point for our theory, we express the result of a scattering experiment in VV and VH symmetry as dynamic correlation functions
of tensorial densities ρ
lm(q) with l = 0 and l = 2. l, m denote indices of spherical harmonics. To account for all observed hydrodynamic singularities, a generalization of the theory
of Schilling and Scheidsteger [1] for these correlation functions is presented, which is capable to describe the light scattering
experiments from the liquid regime to the glassy state. As a microscopic theory it fulfills all sum rules contrary to previous
phenomenological theories. We emphasize the importance of the helicity index m for the microscopic theory by showing, that only the existence of m = 1 components lead to the well known Rytov dip in liquids and to the appearance of transversal sound waves in VH symmetry
in the deeply supercooled liquid and the glass. Exact expressions for the phenomenological frequency dependent rotation translation
coupling coefficients of previous theories are derived.

Dynamic heterogeneities, i.e. the presence of molecules with different mobilities, have been established as one of the key features of the physics of supercooled
liquids. Here we study in detail how the mobility of an individual molecule fluctuates with time. Our analysis is based on
a time series of molecular dynamics simulations for a low molecular weight glass-former, propylene carbonate. We find that
the variation of mobility with time of initially slow molecules significantly differs from that of initially fast molecules.
We explicitly show the relation to the rate memory parameter which recently has been introduced to quantify the mobility fluctuations
as observed via multidimensional NMR experiments. In this way qualitative agreement between simulation and experiment can be established
although the time scales of simulation and NMR experiment differ by many orders of magnitude.

We have used the density functional theory to study the effect of molecular elongation on the isotropic-nematic, isotropic-smectic A and nematic-smectic A phase transitions of a fluid of molecules interacting via the Gay-Berne intermolecular potential. We have considered a range of length-to-width parameter 3.0 ⩽ x0 ⩽ 4.0 in steps of 0.2 at different densities and temperatures. Pair correlation functions needed as input information in density functional theory are calculated using the Percus-Yevick integral equation theory. Within the small range of elongation, the phase diagram shows significant changes. The fluid at low temperature is found to freeze directly from isotropic to smectic A phase for all the values of x0 considered by us on increasing the density while the nematic phase stabilizes in between isotropic and smectic A phases only at high temperatures and densities. Both isotropic-nematic and nematic-smectic A transition density and pressure are found to decrease as we increase x0. The phase diagram obtained is compared with computer simulation result of the same model potential and is found to be in good qualitative agreement. 相似文献

Shapes of nearly cylindrical sections of axisymmetric phospholipid membranes are studied theoretically. Describing the shape
of such sections by their deviation from a reference cylinder, the well-established shape equation for axisymmetric bilayer
membranes is expanded in terms of this deviation, and it is then solved analytically. The phase diagram shows the resulting
stationary shapes as functions of system parameters and external conditions, i.e., the pressure difference across the membrane, the membrane tension, the difference between the tensions of the two monolayers,
and the axial force acting on the vesicle. The accuracy of the approximate analytical solution is demonstrated by comparison
with numerical results. The obtained analytical solution allows to extend the analysis to include shapes where numerical methods
have failed.

We report a detailed characterization of an unique 3-fold commensurate insulating state in single crystals of the organic
– inorganic d hybrid Cu(DMe-DCNQI)2 systems with deuterated and partially deuterated DCNQI ring, by means of low-frequency dielectric spectroscopy. A broad relaxation
mode of strength centred at kHz is observed in the hysteresis temperature region in which the insulating phase coexists with metallic islands. At lower
temperatures, outside the nucleation range, the relaxation narrows, approaching a Debye-like form for an overdamped response
of a system with a single degree of freedom. Both, the relaxation strength and the mean relaxation time () are much larger than that expected for single-particle excitations. These features suggest the origin of the dielectric
relaxation as an intrinsic property of the N = 3 charge density wave state.

A lyotropic system, consisting of a lecithin (DMPC) and a non-ionic surfactant (C12E5) in water was studied. The system exhibits a lamellar-to-nematic phase transition. The nematic phase appears as the temperature
is decreased and only exists in a very limited temperature and concentration range, for specific lipid-to-surfactant ratios.
While a lamellar phase is found at higher temperatures in both mixed and pure C12E5 systems, the transition to the nematic phase at lower temperatures coincides with a micellar phase in the pure C12E5 system. The transition appears to be driven by the strong temperature dependence of the surfactant film spontaneous curvature.
The structural properties of the lamellar phase close to the lamellar-to-nematic boundary have been studied by polarised light
microscopy and small-angle neutron and X-ray scattering experiments. The signature of a helical defect with Burgers vector
of magnitude 2 is apparent in our data, close to the lamellar-to-nematic phase transition. The proliferation of screw dislocations
in the lamellar phase might be a plausible mechanism for driving this transition.

Self-assembled Monolayers of calix[4]resorcinarene receptor molecules on Au(111) were studied by UHV scanning tunneling microscopy
and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Highly ordered monolayers were observed with domains oriented at an angle of 60° relative
to each other. Molecularly resolved images were investigated and lattice constants found which depended on the preparation
solvent. The STM images of two samples, one prepared in 1 mM chloroform/ethyl alcohol adsorbate solution and one in 1 mM hexane
adsorbate solution are consistent with having a ×2 and 4×2 lattice, respectively.

We present an analysis of extensive large-scale Monte Carlo simulations of self-avoiding fixed-connectivity membranes for sizes (number of faces) ranging from 512 to 17672 (triangular) plaquettes. Self-avoidance is implemented via
impenetrable plaquettes. We simulate the impenetrable plaquette model in both three and four bulk dimensions. In both cases we find the
membrane to be flat for all temperatures: the size exponent in three dimensions is ν = 0.95(5) (Hausdorff dimension d
H = 2.1(1)). The single flat phase appears, furthermore, to be equivalent to the large bending rigidity phase of non-self-avoiding fixed-connectivity membranes --the roughness exponent in three dimensions is ξ = 0.63(4). This suggests that there is a unique
universality class for flat fixed-connectivity membranes without attractive interactions. Finally, we address some theoretical
and experimental implications of our work.

Thep-Si/HF-electrolyte interface was characterized by capacitance–voltage (C–V) and current–voltage (I–V) studies. At low frequency, the measured capacitance exhibits two maxima: one in the weak accumulation regime (around 0.8 V
[SCE]) and the other in the strong accumulation regime (around 2.6 V [SCE]), both of which disappear at high frequency. The
disappearance of the two capacitance maxima is attributed to the slow response of interface traps to high frequencies. The
flat-band potential, VFB, is found to be frequency dependent. The surface state densities corresponding to the two capacitance maxima are estimated
to be 3.2×1011 cm-2 and 2.4×1011 cm-2, respectively. The in situ I–V characteristics distinguish pore formation, transition and electropolishing regions. Porous Si synthesized at 50 mA cm-2 gives a broad photoluminescence peak around 2.04 eV at 300 K.

In contrast to the experimentally widely used isentropic demagnetization process for cooling to ultra-low temperatures we
examine a particular classical model system that does not cool, but rather heats up with isentropic demagnetization. This
system consists of several magnetite particles in a colloidal suspension, and shows the uncommon behavior of disordering structurally
while ordering magnetically in an increasing magnetic field. For a six-particle system, we report an uncommon structural transition
from a ring to a chain as a function of magnetic field and temperature.

The phase diagram for quark matter is investigated within a simple Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model without vector correlations. It
is found that the phase structure in the temperature-density plane depends sensitively on the parametrization of the model.
We present two schemes of parametrization of the model where, within the first one, a first-order phase transition from a
phase with broken chiral symmetry to a color superconducting phase for temperatures below the triple point at T
t = 55 MeV occurs, whereas for the second one a second-order phase transition for temperatures below T
t = 7 MeV is found. In the latter case, there is also a coexistence phase of broken chiral symmetry with color superconductivity,
which is a new finding within this class of models. Possible consequences for the phenomenology of the QCD phase transition
at high baryon densities are discussed.
