Abstract

The profile of interfaces separating different phases of statistical systems is investigated in the framework of renormalized field theory. The profile function is calculated analytically in the local potential approximation, using the effective potential to two loops. It can be interpreted as an intrinsic interfacial profile. The loop corrections to the leading tanh-type term turn out to be small. They yield a broadening of the interface.
