Previous issue date: 2007-10-15 / Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Cient?fico e Tecnol?gico / The ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic Ising model on a two dimensional inhomogeneous lattice characterized by two exchange constants (J1 and J2) is investigated. The lattice allows, in a continuous manner, the interpolation between the uniforme square (J2 = 0) and triangular (J2 = J1) lattices. By performing Monte Carlo simulation using the sequential Metropolis algorithm, we calculate the magnetization and the magnetic susceptibility on lattices of differents sizes. Applying the finite size scaling method through a data colappse, we obtained the critical temperatures as well as the critical exponents of the model for several values of the parameter α = J2 J1 in the [0, 1] range. The ferromagnetic case shows a linear increasing behavior of the critical temperature Tc for increasing values of α. Inwhich concerns the antiferromagnetic system, we observe a linear (decreasing) behavior of Tc, only for small values of α; in the range [0.6, 1], where frustrations effects are more pronunciated, the critical temperature Tc decays more quickly, possibly in a non-linear way, to the limiting value Tc = 0, cor-responding to the homogeneous fully frustrated antiferromagnetic triangular case. / Investigamos o diagrama de fases do modelo de Ising, com intera??es feromagn?ticas e antiferromagn?ticas, emuma rede bidimensional inomog?nea caracterizada por duas constantes de troca (J1 e J2), a qual permite interpolar cont?nuamente as redes
quadrada (J2 = 0) e triangular (J2 = J1) uniformes. Utilizando o m?todo de simula??o de Monte Carlo, atrav?s da din?mica deMetropolis aplicada de forma seq?encial, calculamos a magnetiza??o e a susceptibilidade para redes de diversos tamanhos e aplicando t?cnicas de escalonamento para tamanhos finitos obtemos, atrav?s de um colapso de dados, valores para a temperatura cr?tica e expoentes cr?ticos em fun??o do par?metro α = J2 J1, contido no intervalo [0, 1].

Nonstandard finite-size effects at discontinuous phase transitions: Degenerate low-temperature states and boundary conditionsMüller, Marco 06 March 2018 (has links)
In dieser Dissertation wird das Skalenverhalten derÜbergangstemperatur
von Systemen an diskontinuierlichen Phasenübergängen aus einem Zwei-
Zustands-Modell abgeleitet und erweitert. Es wird erläutert, wie sich
das Skalenverhalten für periodische Randbedingungen drastisch verändern
kann, sobald der Entartungsgrad der geordneten Phasen von der
Teilchenzahl abhängt. Eswerden Modellsysteme in zwei und drei Dimensionen
betrachtet, deren Zustandssummen mittels analytischer, kombinatorischer
Argumente berechnet werden. Für das kompliziertere, isotrope
Plaquettemodell in drei Dimensionen können durch diese Rechnungen
Ordnungsparameter definiert werden. Diese werden, zusammen mit dem
veränderten Skalenverhalten selbskonsistent durch anspruchsvolle und
hochpräzise, sogenannte multikanonische Monte-Carlo Simulationen
überprüft und bestätigt.

From localization to delocalization: numerical studies of transport in disordered systemsRömer, Rudolf 19 April 2000 (has links)
The present thesis reviews my scientific works on disordered systems
from 1995 until today. They can be roughly categorized into three main
classes: (1) non-interacting disordered systems, (2) the
two-interacting particle problem, and (3) the interplay of disorder
and many-particle interaction. A (4)th chapter is concerned with the
implementation of the numerical algorithms. The structure of the
thesis reflects this division. The reprints have been added at the end
of these main divisions according to their context. For the
convenience of the reader, I have ordered them in each chapter
alphabetically according to the names of the authors. Furthermore, in
each citation of my work, the starting page number in the thesis is
given, e.g, Ref.\ \cite{EPR97} refers to a paper of Eckle, Punnoose
and myself and can be found on page \pageref{EPR97}. Citations which
do not refer to my work are numbered and are ordered in the
bibliography according to the names of the authors.

Finite size scaling and the critical Casimir force : Ising magnets and binary fluids / Finite size scaling et force de Casimir critique : aimants d'Ising et fluides binairesLopes Cardozo, David 22 October 2015 (has links)
À l'approche d'un point critique, la divergence de la longueur de corrélation des fluctuations peut être tronquée par le confinement du système. Cette troncature engendre des effets de taille finie présentant des caractères universels au sein d'un classe de transitions de phases.Nous nous sommes intéressés particulièrement à la classe d'universalité du modèle d'Ising, regroupant notamment les transitions de phase ferro/paramagnétique pour les systèmes magnétiques uniaxiaux, la transition liquide/gaz et encore la démixtion de mélanges binaires. Nous présentons tout d'abord une introduction aux phénomènes critiques, à l'universalité, au « finite-size scaling » et aux simulations Monte Carlo du modèle d'Ising, sur lesquelles se fondent la majeur partie de ce travail.Un effet de taille finie ayant attiré une grande attention durant les dernières dizaines d'années est la force de Casimir critique. Les travaux théoriques et numériques concernant cette force ont, dans leur quasi totalité, été menés dans des systèmes magnétiques modèles, tel que les modèles d'Ising ou XY. Par contre, les approches expérimentales ont toutes été réalisées dans des systèmes fluides, tels que des mélanges binaires ou de l'hélium IV proche de la transition superfluide.Une motivation de ce travail a été de chercher a résoudre cette situation paradoxale en proposant, d'une part, un protocole expérimental pour la mesure de la force de Casimir dans une couche mince magnétique et, d'autre part, une approche numérique dans un mélange binaire de type Lennard-Jones. Cette dernière approche présente l'avantage d'ouvrir la porte à des études des fluctuations de la force de Casimir ou encore hors-équilibre. / Approaching a critical point, the divergence of the correlation length of fluctuations can be cut-off by a confinement of the system. This truncation fosters finite size effects with universal features in a class of continuous phase transitions. We are particularly interested in the Ising universality class, regrouping transitions such as the ferromagnetic/paramagnetic transition for uniaxial magnetic systems, the liquid/gas tran- sition and the demixing of binary mixtures. We will first present an introduction to critical phenomena, universality, finite-size scaling and Monte Carlo simulations of the Ising model, on which a major part of this work relies.A finite size effect that has particularly drawn attention in the past decades is the critical Casimir force. On the one hand, theoretical and numerical works on the subject have almost systematically been performed in magnetic model systems, such as the Ising or XY models. On the other hand, experimental approaches were all realized in fluid systems, such as binary mixtures or helium IV close to the superfluid transition.A motivation of this work was to bridge this gap by proposing, firstly, an experimental protocol for measuring the critical Casimir force in a magnetic layer and, secondly, a numerical approach in a Lennard-Jones binary mixture. The latter is of particular interest as it could lead the way to studying fluctuations of the Casimir force or out-of-equilibrium phenomena.

Anderson transitions on random Voronoi-Delaunay lattices / Anderson-Übergänge auf zufälligen Voronoi-Delaunay-GitternPuschmann, Martin 20 December 2017 (has links) (PDF)
The dissertation covers phase transitions in the realm of the Anderson model of localization on topologically disordered Voronoi-Delaunay lattices. The disorder is given by random connections which implies correlations due to the restrictive lattice construction. Strictly speaking, the system features "strong anticorrelation", which is responsible for quenched long-range fluctuations of the coordination number. This attribute leads to violations of universal behavior in various system, e.g. Ising and Potts model, and to modifications of the Harris and the Imry-Ma criteria. In general, these exceptions serve to further understanding of critical phenomena. Hence, the question arises whether such deviations also occur in the realm of the Anderson model of localization in combination with random Voronoi-Delaunay lattice. For this purpose, four cases, which are distinguished by the spatial dimension of the systems and by the presence or absence of a magnetic field, are investigated by means of two different methods, i.e the multifractal analysis and the recursive Green function approach. The behavior is classified by the existence and type of occurring phase transitions and by the critical exponent v of the localization length. The results for the four cases can be summarized as follows. In two-dimensional systems, no phase transitions occur without a magnetic field, and all states are localized as a result of topological disorder. The behavior changes under the influence of the magnetic field. There are so-called quantum Hall transitions, which are phase changes between two localized regions. For low magnetic field strengths, the resulting exponent v ≈ 2.6 coincides with established values in literature. For higher strengths, an increased value, v ≈ 2.9, was determined. The deviations are probably caused by so-called Landau level coupling, where electrons scatter between different Landau levels. In contrast, the principle behavior in three-dimensional systems is equal in both cases. Two localization-delocalization transitions occur in each system. For these transitions the exponents v ≈ 1.58 and v ≈ 1.45 were determined for systems in absence and in presence of a magnetic field, respectively. This behavior and the obtained values agree with known results, and thus no deviation from the universal behavior can be observed. / Diese Dissertation behandelt Phasenübergange im Rahmen des Anderson-Modells der Lokalisierung in topologisch ungeordneten Voronoi-Delaunay-Gittern. Die spezielle Art der Unordnung spiegelt sich u.a. in zufälligen Verknüpfungen wider, welche aufgrund der restriktiven Gitterkonstruktion miteinander korrelieren. Genauer gesagt zeigt das System eine "starke Antikorrelation", die dafür sorgt, dass langreichweitige Fluktuationen der Verknüpfungszahl unterdrückt werden. Diese Eigenschaft hat in anderen Systemen, z.B. im Ising- und Potts-Modell, zur Abweichung vom universellen Verhalten von Phasenübergängen geführt und bewirkt eine Modifikation von allgemeinen Aussagen, wie dem Harris- and Imry-Ma-Kriterium. Die Untersuchung solcher Ausnahmen dient zur Weiterentwicklung des Verständnisses von kritischen Phänomenen. Somit stellt sich die Frage, ob solche Abweichungen auch im Anderson-Modell der Lokalisierung unter Verwendung eines solchen Gitters auftreten. Dafür werden insgesamt vier Fälle, welche durch die Dimension des Gitters und durch die An- bzw. Abwesenheit eines magnetischen Feldes unterschieden werden, mit Hilfe zweier unterschiedlicher Methoden, d.h. der Multifraktalanalyse und der rekursiven Greensfunktionsmethode, untersucht. Das Verhalten wird anhand der Existenz und Art der Phasenübergänge und anhand des kritischen Exponenten v der Lokalisierungslänge unterschieden. Für die vier Fälle lassen sich die Ergebnisse wie folgt zusammenfassen. In zweidimensionalen Systemen treten ohne Magnetfeld keine Phasenübergänge auf und alle Zustände sind infolge der topologischen Unordnung lokalisiert. Unter Einfluss des Magnetfeldes ändert sich das Verhalten. Es kommt zur Ausformung von Landau-Bändern mit sogenannten Quanten-Hall-Übergängen, bei denen ein Phasenwechsel zwischen zwei lokalisierten Bereichen auftritt. Für geringe Magnetfeldstärken stimmen die erzielten Ergebnisse mit den bekannten Exponenten v ≈ 2.6 überein. Allerdings wurde für stärkere magnetische Felder ein höherer Wert, v ≈ 2.9, ermittelt. Die Abweichungen gehen vermutlich auf die zugleich gestiegene Unordnungsstärke zurück, welche dafür sorgt, dass Elektronen zwischen verschiedenen Landau-Bändern streuen können und so nicht das kritische Verhalten eines reinen Quanten-Hall-Überganges repräsentieren. Im Gegensatz dazu ist das Verhalten in dreidimensionalen Systemen für beide Fälle ähnlich. Es treten in jedem System zwei Phasenübergänge zwischen lokalisierten und delokalisierten Bereichen auf. Für diese Übergänge wurde der Exponent v ≈ 1.58 ohne und v ≈ 1.45 unter Einfluss eines magnetischen Feldes ermittelt. Dieses Verhalten und die jeweils ermittelten Werte stimmen mit bekannten Ergebnissen überein. Eine Abweichung vom universellen Verhalten wird somit nicht beobachtet.

Chaos quantique et transition d'Anderson avec des atomes refroidis par laserChabé, Julien 07 December 2007 (has links) (PDF)
En utilisant des atomes refroidis par laser placés dans une onde stationnaire pulsée nous réalisons expérimentalement un système quantique présentant une dynamique chaotique à la limite classique appelé « kicked rotor ». Le kicked rotor est le paradigme de l'étude du chaos quantique. Un tel système présente un phénomène de « localisation dynamique » correspondant à la suppression de la diffusion ergodique par des interférences quantiques. Après un temps caractéristique, la distribution en impulsion est gelée à un état stationnaire et son énergie cinétique atteint une valeur asymptotique.<br />Le forçage périodique du kicked rotor est une condition nécessaire à l'apparition de la localisation dynamique. Dans ce cas, on montre que la localisation dynamique est équivalente à un modèle d'Anderson à une dimension pour les solides désordonnés. De nombreuses études numériques ont étudié l'analogie avec le modèle d'Anderson à deux et trois dimensions lorsque le forçage comporte deux et trois fréquences. Nous proposons une étude expérimentale de la destruction de la localisation dynamique par un forçage à deux fréquences en introduisant progressivement une seconde fréquence dans le forçage. Celle-ci révèle l'existence d'une loi d'échelle quantique concernant la délocalisation. Pour le modèle avec forçage à trois fréquences correspondant au modèle d'Anderson à trois dimensions les expériences montrent l'existence d'une transition de phase entre un état localisé et un état délocalisé.

Disorder-induced metal-insulator transition in anisotropic systemsMilde, Frank 17 July 2000 (has links) (PDF)
Untersucht wird der Auswirkung von Anisotropie auf den unordnungsinduzierten Metall-Isolator-Übergang (MIÜ) im Rahmen des dreidimensionalen Anderson-Modells der Lokalisierung für (schwach) gekoppelte Ebenen bzw. Ketten. Mittels numerischer Verfahren (Lanczos- und Transfer-Matrix-Methode) werden Eigenwerte und -vektoren bzw. die Lokalisierungslänge berechnet. Zur Bestimmung des kritischen Exponenten dieses Phasenüberganges 2. Ordnung wird ein allgemeiner Skalenansatz verwendet, der auch den Einfluss einer irrelevanten Skalenvariablen und Nichtlinearitäten berücksichtigt. Ein Kapitel untersucht die verwendeten numerischen Verfahren, verschiedene Methoden werden verglichen und die Portierbarkeit zu Parallelrechnern diskutiert.
Der MIÜ wird mit zwei unabhängigen Methoden charakterisiert: Eigenwertstatistik und Transfer-Matrix-Methode. Die Systemgrößenunabhängigkeit der betrachteten Größen am Phasenübergang wird benutzt um den MIÜ zu identifizieren. Sie resultiert aus der Multifraktalität der kritischen Eigenzustände, die für den isotropen Fall bis zu einer Systemgröße von 111^3 Gitterplätzen gezeigt wird. Es stellt sich heraus, daß der MIÜ auch bei sehr starker Anisotropie existiert und bereits bei geringerer Potentialunordnung als im isotropen Fall auftritt. Für den Fall sehr schwach gekoppelter Ebenen wird gezeigt, daß der kritische Exponent mit dem des isotropen Falles übereinstimmt und damit die übliche Einteilung in Universalitätsklassen bestätigt.
