The field-induced reorientation of the magnetization of ferromagnetic films is treated within the framework of many-body Green's
function theory by considering all components of the magnetization. We present a new method for the calculation of expectation
values in terms of the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the equations of motion matrix for the set of Green's functions. This
formulation allows a straightforward extension of the monolayer case to thin films with many layers and for arbitrary spin
and moreover provides a practicable procedure for numerical computation. The model Hamiltonian includes a Heisenberg term,
an external magnetic field, a second-order uniaxial single-ion anisotropy, and the magnetic dipole-dipole coupling. We utilize
the Tyablikov (RPA) decoupling for the exchange interaction terms and the Anderson-Callen decoupling for the anisotropy terms.
The dipole coupling is treated in the mean-field approximation, a procedure which we demonstrate to be a sufficiently good
approximation for realistic coupling strengths. We apply the new method to monolayers with spin and to multilayer systems with S=1. We compare some of our results to those where mean-field theory (MFT) is applied to all interactions, pointing out some
significant differences.

We present an alternative model of structure and energetics of the inverted amphiphilic mesophases. The previous studies of
the inverted hexagonal, HII, and inverted micellar cubic, QII, phases considered the amphiphilic monolayers to be homogeneously bent. In contrast, we assume a unit cell of an inverted
mesophase to consist of flat fragments of monolayer. Hence, the unit cells of the HII and QII phases are represented by a hexagonal rod and a polyhedron, respectively. Our model is motivated by Turner and Gruner's X-ray
diffraction reconstruction of structure of the HII phase. The only deformation of the amphiphilic monolayers we consider is tilt of the hydrocarbon chains with respect to the
monolayer surface, determined by the packing constraints imposed in the mesophases. Applying our recent model for the elastic
energy of tilt in liquid membranes [#!ref23!#], we show that: i) tilt accounts in a natural way for the frustration energy
of mesophases resulting from filling by the hydrocarbon chains the corners of the unit cells, ii) the energy of tilt variation
along the membrane surface is analogous to the bending energy. We compute the energetics of the HII, QIIsc and QIIfcc phases and obtain a hypothetical phase diagram in terms of the elastic constants of monolayers. Moreover, we calculate the
structural dimensions of the mesophases. We verify the model showing that the obtained phase diagram describes the recent
data for the glycolipids/water systems; the predicted dimensions of the QII phase are in accord with the measured values; the model treats quantitatively the structural features observed for the HII phase.

We study the statistical mechanical conditions under which segregation of racemic mixtures of chiral molecules is possible in a two-dimensional fluid model. Motivated by experimental evidence indicating that chiral hydrophilic heads of amphiphilic molecules lying in a monolayer can crystallize undergoing a chiral phase separation, we propose a two-dimensional system to model the projection of the chiral head of amphiphilic molecules in a monolayer. The molecules of our model are infinitely hard and infinitely thin. We consider interactions with only a repulsive contribution where molecules have no effective area (two-dimensional volume). As a consequence all effects found are due to excluded area. The Monte Carlo Gibbs ensemble is used to study phase separation whereas constant pressure simulations are performed to obtain equations of state of pure and racemic systems. We find that for this simple model segregation is generally possible in the very high density regime. 相似文献

Langmuir monomolecular layers, formed by amphiphilic molecules at liquid-air interfaces and containing a fraction of chiral molecules, are theoretically investigated. These monolayers can be brought out of thermal equilibrium by applying a gradient of small molecules across the interface, resulting in the leakage flow. We show that, when splay coupling between the orientation field and the local concentration of chiral molecules in the monolayer is taken into account, this nonequilibrium soft matter system can show complex wave behavior, including the development of target wave patterns, spiral waves, and dense regions filled with inwardly propagating waves. 相似文献

We introduce a new nonextensive entropic measure that grows like , where N is the size of the system under consideration. This kind of nonextensivity arises in a natural way in some N-body systems endowed with long-range interactions described by interparticle potentials. The power law (weakly nonextensive) behavior exhibited by is intermediate between (1) the linear (extensive) regime characterizing the standard Boltzmann-Gibbs entropy and (2) the
exponential law (strongly nonextensive) behavior associated with the Tsallis generalized q-entropies. The functional is parametrized by the real number in such a way that the standard logarithmic entropy is recovered when . We study the mathematical properties of the new entropy, showing that the basic requirements for a well behaved entropy
functional are verified, i.e., possesses the usual properties of positivity, equiprobability, concavity and irreversibility and verifies Khinchin axioms
except the one related to additivity since is nonextensive. For , the entropy becomes superadditive in the thermodynamic limit. The present formalism is illustrated by a numerical study of the thermodynamic
scaling laws of a ferromagnetic Ising model with long-range interactions.

The effect of various amphiphilic block copolymers of different molar masses on the structure and phase behavior of ternary amphiphilic systems (water, oil, and nonionic surfactant) is investigated. Small amounts of PEP-PEO block copolymer lead to a dramatic increase in the volumes of oil and water, which can be solubilized in a bicontinuous microemulsion. High-precision neutron scattering experiments with a sophisticated contrast variation technique demonstrate that the polymers form uniformly distributed mushroom conformations on the surfactant membrane. Based on these observations, we propose a universal mechanism for the swelling behavior, which is due to the variation of the membrane curvature elasticity. 相似文献

A perturbation theory based on the random phase approximation with a hard disc reference fluid is used to generate substantially analytic results for the form of the small angle scattering from model two dimensional monolayer systems. When applied to systems with a conventional 12-6 Lennard-Jones interaction potential the theory yields results in good agreement with more sophisticated theories and computer simulation. The method is also used for the 12-5 Lennard-Jones interaction potential that characterizes the in-plane interactions of lipid molecules at the air/water interface and gives qualitative agreement with experimental studies. The inclusion of weak dipolar interactions between the monolayer particles is seen to supress any liquid-vapour phase transition. 相似文献

The reorientation of the magnetization of a ferromagnetic monolayer is calculated with the help of many-body Green's function
theory. This allows, in contrast to other spin wave theories, a satisfactory calculation of magnetic properties over the entire
temperature range of interest since interactions between spin waves are taken into account. A Heisenberg Hamiltonian plus
a second-order uniaxial single-ion anisotropy and an external magnetic field is treated by the Tyablikov (Random Phase Approximation:
RPA) decoupling of the exchange interaction term and the Anderson-Callen decoupling of the anisotropy term. The orientation
of the magnetization is determined by the spin components (), which are calculated with the help of the spectral theorem. The knowledge of the orientation angle allows a non-perturbative determination of the temperature dependence of the effective second-order anisotropy coefficient.
Results for the Green's function theory are compared with those obtained with mean-field theory (MFT). We find significant
differences between these approaches.

We investigate the dynamical properties of the 1-D Ising-like Hamiltonian taking into account short and long range interactions,
in order to predict the static and dynamic behavior of spin crossover systems. The stochastic treatment is carried out within
the frame of the local equilibrium method [1]. The calculations yield, at thermodynamic equilibrium, the exact analytic expression
previously obtained by the transfer matrix technique [2]. We mainly discuss the shape of the relaxation curves: (i) for large
(positive) values of the short range interaction parameter, a saturation of the relaxation curves is observed, reminiscent
of the behavior of the width of the static hysteresis loop [3]; (ii) a sigmoidal (self-accelerated) behavior is obtained for
large enough interactions of any type; (iii) the relaxation curves exhibit a sizeable tail (with respect to the mean-field
curves) which is clearly associated with the transient onset of first-neighbor correlations in the system, due to the effect
of short-range interactions. The case of negative short-range interaction is briefly discussed in terms of two-step properties.

We determine the asymptotic behavior of the coupling coefficient for four-wave interactions of gravity waves in deep water in the limiting case when two wave vectors of interacting waves are small with respect to the other two (“long–short interactions”). It makes possible to find numerically dimensionless Kolmogorov constants for the power-law Kolmogorov–Zakharov spectra. The results obtained are crucially important for comparison of the weak turbulent theory with the experiments and natural observations. 相似文献

We investigate the theoretically combined effect of spin-orbit interactions and Coulomb interaction on the ground state and transport property of a quantum wire oriented along different crystallographic directions in the (110) plane. We find that the electron’s ground state exhibits phase transition among spin density wave, charge density wave, singlet superconductivity and metamagnetism, which can be controlled by changing the crystallographic orientation, the strengths of the spin-orbit interactions and the Coulomb interaction. The ac conductance exhibits a significant anisotropic behavior and a out-of-plane spin polarization which can be tuned by an in-plane electric field. 相似文献

Growth and ordering of GeSi islands in Ge-Si multilayer systems during deposition by Low-Pressure Chemical Vapour Deposition (LPCVD) at 700°C on Si (001) substrates have been investigated for different layer distances by transmission electron microscopy of cross-section and plane-view specimens. Vertical ordering of GeSi islands with almost perfect correlation is observed for distances between the Ge layers of 100 nm. At larger interlayer distances, a continuous decrease of the correlation is found. Vertical ordering in the multilayer system is modelled in terms of the elastic interaction between island nuclei in a newly forming layer and close islands in a buried layer below. Lateral ordering parallel to < 100 >, as observed previously in larger Ge-Si multilayer systems is not found in our systems, consisting of two Ge layers. This difference indicates that lateral ordering in the upper Ge layers of a large multilayer system is triggered by vertical ordering. 相似文献

Unusual quadratic dispersion of flexural vibrational mode and red-shift of Raman shift of in-plane mode with increasing layer-number are quite common and interesting in low-dimensional materials, but their physical origins still remain open questions. Combining ab initio density functional theory calculations with the empirical force-constant model, we study the lattice dynamics of two typical two-dimensional(2 D) systems, few-layer h-BN and indium iodide(In I). We found that the unusual quadratic dispersion of flexural mode frequency on wave vector may be comprehended based on the competition between atomic interactions of different neighbors. Long-range interaction plays an essential role in determining the dynamic stability of the 2 D systems. The frequency red-shift of in-plane Raman-active mode from monolayer to bulk arises mainly from the reduced long-range interaction due to the increasing screening effect. 相似文献

We present evidence for an exotic gapless insulating phase of hard-core bosons on multileg ladders with a density commensurate with the number of legs. In particular, we study in detail a model of bosons moving with direct hopping and frustrating ring exchange on a 3-leg ladder at ν=1/3 filling. For sufficiently large ring exchange, the system is insulating along the ladder but has two gapless modes and power law transverse density correlations at incommensurate wave vectors. We propose a determinantal wave function for this phase and find excellent comparison between variational Monte Carlo and density matrix renormalization group calculations on the model Hamiltonian, thus providing strong evidence for the existence of this exotic phase. Finally, we discuss extensions of our results to other N-leg systems and to N-layer two-dimensional structures. 相似文献

Motivated by numerous X-ray scattering studies of lamellar phases with membrane proteins, amphiphilic peptides, polymers,
or other inclusions, we have determined the modifications of the classical Caillé law for a smectic phase as a function of
the nature and concentration of inclusions added to it. Besides a fundamental interest on the behavior of fluctuating systems
with inclusions, a precise characterization of the action of a given protein on a lipid membrane (anchoring, swelling, stiffening
...) is of direct biological interest and could be probed by way of X-ray measurements. As a first step we consider three
different couplings involving local pinching (or swelling), stiffening or curvature of the membrane. In the first two cases
we predict that independent inclusions induce a simple renormalization of the bending and compression moduli of the smectic
phase. The X-ray experiments may also be used to probe correlations between inclusions. Finally we show that asymmetric coupling
(such as a local curvature of the membrane) results in a modification of the usual Caillé law.

A mean field approach is used to estimate the energy dissipation during the homogeneous sedimentation or the particulate fluidization
of non Brownian hard spheres in a concentrated suspension of infinite extent. Depending on inertial screening and the range
of the hydrodynamic interactions, the effective buoyancy force is determined either from the average suspension density in
a Stokes flow or from the fluid density in the turbulent flow regime. An energy balance then yields a settling or fluidization
law depending on the particle Reynolds number in reasonable agreement with the Richardson and Zaki correlation and recent
experimental results for particle settling or fluidization. We further estimate the energy dissipation in the turbulent boundary
layers around the particles to precise the Reynolds number dependence of the hindered settling function in the intermediate
flow regime.

A two-dimensional lattice-gas model with square symmetry is investigated by using the real-space renormalization group (RSRG)
approach with blocks of different size and symmetries. It has been shown that the precision of the method depends strongly
not only on the number of sites in the block but also on its symmetry. In general, the accuracy of the method increases with
the number of sites in the block. The minimal relative error in determining the critical values of the interaction parameters
is equal to . Using the RSRG method, we have explored phase diagrams of both a two-dimensional Ising spin model and of a square lattice
gas with lateral interactions between adparticles. We also have investigated the influence of the attractive and repulsive
interactions on both the thermodynamic properties of the lattice gas and the diffusion of adsorbed particles over surface.
We have calculated adsorption isotherms and coverage dependences of the pair correlation function, isothermal susceptibility
and the chemical diffusion coefficient. In addition, we have included in our analysis the interaction of the activated particle
in the saddle point with its nearest neighbors. We have also used Monte Carlo (MC) technique to calculate these dependences.
Despite the fact that both methods constitute very different approaches, the correspondence of the numerical data is surprisingly
good. Therefore, we conclude that the RSRG approach can be applied to characterize the thermodynamic and kinetic properties
of systems of particles with strong lateral interactions.

We consider a procedure for calculating the pair correlation function in the context of cluster variation methods (CVM). As specific cases, we study the pair correlation function in the paramagnetic phase of the Ising model with nearest neighbors, next to nearest neighbors, and plaquette interactions in two and three dimensions. In presence of competing interactions, the so-called disorder line separates in the paramagnetic phase a region where the correlation function has the usual exponential behavior from a region where the correlation has an oscillating, exponentially damped behavior. In two dimensions, using the plaquette as the maximal cluster of the CVM approximation, we calculate the phase diagram and the disorder line for a case where a comparison is possible with known results for the eight-vertex model. In three dimensions, in the CVM cube approximation, we calculate the phase diagram and the disorder line in some cases of particular interest. The relevance of our results for experimental systems like mixtures of oil, water, and surfactant is also discussed. 相似文献

We reconsider the theory of the half-filled lowest Landau level using the Chern-Simons formulation and study the grand-canonical
potential in the random-phase approximation (RPA). Calculating the unperturbed response functions for current- and charge-density
exactly, without any expansion with respect to frequency or wave vector, we find that the integral for the ground-state energy
converges rapidly (algebraically) at large wave vectors k, but exhibits a logarithmic divergence at small k. This divergence originates in the k-2 singularity of the Chern-Simons interaction and it is already present in lowest-order perturbation theory. A similar divergence
appears in the chemical potential. Beyond the RPA, we identify diagrams for the grand-canonical potential (ladder-type, maximally
crossed, or a combination of both) which diverge with powers of the logarithm. We expand our result for the RPA ground-state
energy in the strength of the Coulomb interaction. The linear term is finite and its value compares well with numerical simulations
of interacting electrons in the lowest Landau level.
