Can I read Confinement-induced freezing and the Lindemann criterion on EtoBox?
Confinement-induced freezing and the Lindemann criterion by Alexei V. Tkachenko; Yitzhak Rabin is a Physics and Astronomy article available to read on EtoBox.
What is Confinement-induced freezing and the Lindemann criterion about?
A simple model of confinement-induced freezing in thin liquid layers is presented. Under boundary conditions of vanishing displacement field at the walls, confinement suppresses the amplitude of fluctuations in a solid film below a critical value determined by the Lindemann criterion of melting. The resulting increase of the melting temperature compared to that of a bulk solid, is estimated and the connection with experiments is discussed.
Who reads Confinement-induced freezing and the Lindemann criterion?
It is typically read by researchers, students, and practitioners in Physics and Astronomy.
