受限Lebwohl-Lasher模型的相行为

Phase behavior of the Confined Lebwohl-Lasher Model

N. G. Almarza, C. Martín, E. Lomba

摘要:

本文用Lebwohl-Lasher模型研究了受限双光子晶体的相行为。对于三维系统,该模型表现出不连续的向列-各向同性相变,而相应的二维系统显然表现出连续的Berezinskiii-Kosterlitz-无向列相变。在本文中,我们研究的相变的Lebwohl-Lasher模型之间的限制在不同宽度的平面狭缝,以建立纯平面模型和三维系统之间的中间情况下的行为,并与以前的估计的临界厚度,即狭缝宽度的过渡从连续到不连续的开关。

英文摘要:

The phase behavior of confined nematogens is studied using the Lebwohl-Lasher model. For three dimensional systems the model is known to exhibit a discontinuous nematic-isotropic phase transition, whereas the corresponding two dimensional systems apparently show a continuous Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless like transition. In this paper we study the phase transitions of the Lebwohl-Lasher model when confined between planar slits of different widths in order to establish the behavior of intermediate situations between the pure planar model and the three-dimensional system, and compare with previous estimates for the critical thickness, i.e. the slit width at which the transition switches from continuous to discontinuous.
