Phase Transitions at Interfaces: Roughening, Surface Melting, and Triple Point Wetting
Abstract Roughening, surface melting, and wetting are three closely related topics of great current interest in surface science. They involve the fundamental properties of thin films, and they are important phenomena in modern interface technology. Each has a long, nearly independent scientific history reaching back to the 19th Century, and we are only now learning how closely they are related. We are finding that much of the early work is inaccurate and just plain wrong, but a portion is bearing up surprisingly well. The state of knowledge in all three fields has improved considerably in the past few years, but some of the original speculations are still being tested.
