Commensurate melting, domain walls, and dislocations

Huse, David A., Fisher, Michael E.·1984·Physical Review B

Abstract

Commensurate phases of order $p\ensuremath{\ge}3$ exhibit two or more classes of inequivalent domain walls, reflecting a lower than ideal symmetry. These walls compete statistically and undergo wetting transitions. New "chiral" universality classes of melting transitions may thereby occur for both $3\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}1$ and $\sqrt{3}\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}\sqrt{3}$ surface phases. The data of Moncton et al. may be interpreted as indicating that such a chiral transition occurs in Kr on graphite. The melting of $p\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}1$ phases is discussed for various dimensionalities $d$ and values of $p$. Domain-wall wetting transitions are treated in a semiphenomenological fashion; they may be either continuous or first order. Wetting critical exponents are obtained for a general class of transitions. The role of dislocations at the uniaxial commensurate-to-incommensurate transition is examined. For $d=2$ the crossover exponent for dislocations is found to be ${\ensuremath{-}\ensuremath{\theta}}_{p}=\frac{(6\ensuremath{-}{p}^{2})}{4}$. For $p>\sqrt{6}$ the dislocations are therefore irrelevant, but they introduce singular corrections to scaling at the transition. A phase diagram as a function of dislocation fugacity is proposed for the case $d=2$, $p=3$, illustrating how a Lifshitz point may be present at all nonzero fugacities.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
