摘要:

采用分子动力学(MD)和Monte Carlo(MC)模拟方法研究了硬球体系和单组分金属Ni体系(后者采用嵌入原子型势模型)的晶体-流体界面性质。不同的局部序参量被认为是获得系统的序参量分布,其中的晶体相是在与流体相共存,分离的界面与(100)取向的晶体。从这些分布图中,可以提取出均方界面宽度w^2作为系统尺寸的函数。我们合理地解释了毛细波理论的预言,即w^2随系统的横向尺寸而几何发散。我们发现,可以从界面增宽来估算界面刚度,硬球的界面刚度为0.5 k_B T/σ ^2,镍的界面刚度为0.18 J/m^2。

英文摘要:

Using Molecular Dynamics (MD) and Monte Carlo (MC) simulations interfacial properties of crystal-fluid interfaces are investigated for the hard sphere system and the one-component metallic system Ni (the latter modeled by a potential of the embedded atom type). Different local order parameters are considered to obtain order parameter profiles for systems where the crystal phase is in coexistence with the fluid phase, separated by interfaces with (100) orientation of the crystal. From these profiles, the mean-squared interfacial width w^2 is extracted as a function of system size. We rationalize the prediction of capillary wave theory that w^2 diverges logarithmically with the lateral size of the system. We show that one can estimate the interfacial stiffness from the interfacial broadening, obtaining 0.5 k_B T/sigma^2 for hard spheres and 0.18 J/m^2 for Ni.
