Manipulating Wetting and Ordering at Interfaces by Adsorption of Impurities

  • Chapter
Theoretical and Computational Approaches to Interface Phenomena

Abstract

Many-body systems in contact with a heat reservoir and applied ordering fields typically exhibit a variety of phases characterized by a set of order-parameter fields \(\phi _i \left( {\vec r} \right)\). In the continuous limit of a single-site mean-field approximation, the equilibrium state of the system is achieved by a certain set of order-parameter fields \(\phi _i \left( {\vec r} \right)\).
