用横场伊辛模型研究了铁电薄膜的热力学性质.在体系的哈密顿量中引入一个两维的在平面内的应力，并假设应力从基底材料和薄膜材料之间的界面层到薄膜的表面层是呈指数形式衰减的.结果显示：压应力有利于极化，使居里温度向高温区移动，而张应力对极化和居里温度的影响正好相反.扩散长度对铁电薄膜的热力学性质有很大的影响. 关键词： 铁电薄膜 应力 横场伊辛模型     

The spin-one Ising model in the mean-spherical approximation

The spin-one Ising ferromagnet on a simple cubic lattice is treated in the mean-spherical approximation (MSA) for an exchange potentialJ(r) parametrized by a Kac-Baker inverse-range parameter γ. The mean-field result is recovered when γ→ 0; in this limit the result is exact. For γ≠ 0, a detailed analysis is given of the phase separation associated with the tricritical point that occurs. The analysis is made through the relation that gives the internal energy viaJ(r). It shows that the MSA result satisfactorily captures the important thermodynamic features of the tricritical point as long as γ is not too large. The case of CoulombicJ(r) is also considered; hereJ(r) is antiferromagnetic. An argument is given in support of the expectation that on the simple cubic and body-centered cubic lattices the CoulombicJ(r) will give rise to a tricritical point at which a λ-line of Néel points meets a paramagnetic-antiferromagnetic coexistence boundary.     

Relaxation time for a dimer covering with height representation

This paper considers the Monte Carlo dynamics of random dimer coverings of the square lattice, which can be mapped to a rough interface model. Two kinds of slow modes are identified, associated respectively with long-wavelength fluctuations of the interface height, and with slow drift (in time) of the system-wide mean height. Within a continuum theory, the longest relaxation time for either kind of mode scales as the system sizeN. For the real, discrete model, an exactlower bound ofO(N) is placed on the relaxation time, using variational eigenfunctions corresponding to the two kinds of continuum modes     

Ionic diffusion on a lattice: Effects of the order-disorder transition on the dynamics of non-equilibrium systems

We examine the behaviour of the concentration profiles of particles with repulsive interactions diffusing on a host lattice. At low temperature, the diffusion process is strongly influenced by the presence of ordered domains. We use mean field equations and Monte-Carlo simulations to describe the various effects which influence the kinetic behaviour. An effective diffusion coefficient is determined analytically and is compared with the simulations. Finite gradient effects on the ordered domains and on the diffusion are discussed. The kinetics studied is relevant for superionic conductors, for intercalation and also for the diffusion of particles adsorbed on a substrate.

Exact ground states of Ising spin glasses: New experimental results with a branch-and-cut algorithm

In this paper we study two-dimensional Ising spin glasses on a grid with nearest neighbor and periodic boundary interactions, based on a Gaussian bond distribution, and an exterior magnetic field. We show how using a technique called branch and cut, the exact ground states of grids of sizes up to 100×100 can be determined in a moderate amount of computation time, and we report on extensive computational tests. With our method we produce results based on more than 20,000 experiments on the properties of spin glasses whose errors depend only on the assumptions on the model and not on the computational process. This feature is a clear advantage of the method over other, more popular ways to compute the ground state, like Monte Carlo simulation including simulated annealing, evolutionary, and genetic algorithms, that provide only approximate ground states with a degree of accuracy that cannot be determineda priori. Our ground-state energy estimation at zero field is –1.317.     

Minority opinion spreading in random geometry

The dynamics of spreading of the minority opinion in public debates (a reform proposal, a behavior change, a military retaliation) is studied using a diffusion reaction model. People move by discrete step on a landscape of random geometry shaped by social life (offices, houses, bars, and restaurants). A perfect world is considered with no advantage to the minority. A one person-one argument principle is applied to determine locally individual mind changes. In case of equality, a collective doubt is evoked which in turn favors the Status Quo. Starting from a large in favor of the proposal initial majority, repeated random size local discussions are found to drive the majority reversal along the minority hostile view. Total opinion refusal is completed within few days. Recent national collective issues are revisited. The model may apply to rumor and fear propagation. Received 23 January 2002     

Low-temperature series for renormalized operators: The ferromagnetic square-lattice Ising model

A method for computing low-temperature series for renormalized operators in the two-dimensional Ising model is proposed. These series are applied to the study of the properties of the truncated renormalized Hamiltonians when we start at very low temperature and zero field. The truncated Hamiltonians for majority rule, Kadanoff transformation, and decimation for 2×2 blocks depend on the how we approach the first-order phase-transition line. The renormalization group transformations are multivalued and discontinuous at this first-order transition line when restricted to some finite-dimensional interaction space.
