Finite-Size Effects in Critical Phenomena from Mean Field Approach with ϕ4 Model
Abstract
The finite-size effects in critical phenomena of a thin film system are studied from a mean field (MF) approach with ϕ4 model for second-order phase transition. The influence of boundary condition on the critical properties are emphasized. Scaling functions for relative free-energy and relative specific heat capacity are given.
