Monte Carlo study of surface roughening in the three-dimensional Ising model

  • Published:
Zeitschrift für Physik B Condensed Matter

Abstract

Above a roughening temperature of about 0.56T c the thickness of the two-dimensional interface separating domain on a simple cubic lattice is found to increase roughly logarithmically with system size. Also, the interface tension is determined for temperatures belowT c.
