Abstract:
The microscopic structure and thermodynamic properties of liquid-vapor and liquid-liquid interfaces in Ising fluids are studied using an integral equation approach. The calculations are performed in the absence and presence of an external magnetic field by solving the corresponding set of Lovett-Mou-Buff-Wertheim integrodifferential equations for the one-particle density distribution functions. The two-particle inhomogeneous direct correlation functions are consistently constructed by nonlinear interpolation between the bulk ones. The bulk correlation functions of the coexisting phases are obtained from the Ornstein-Zernike equations with a modified soft mean spherical approximation for the closure relation. As a result, the density and magnetization profiles at liquid-vapor and liquid-liquid interfaces as well as the surface tension and adsorption coefficients are evaluated in a wide temperature range including subcritical regions. The influence of an external magnetic field on the liquid-vapor interfaces is also considered.
