Abstract:Two-dimensional
(2D) phase transitions in molecular layers adsorbed
on various surfaces have attracted much research attention over the
past decades. Special attention is paid to the solidification/melting
transition using methods based on molecular simulation techniques.
The main research interest is focused on parameters of the liquid–solid
or fluid–solid transitions; that is, the pressure, the chemical
potential, and the density change. It is implied that the liquid and
solid phases coexist like vapor and l… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
