TL;DR
This paper develops a theoretical framework to explain the tricritical behavior observed in the phase diagram of miscut Si(113) surfaces, suggesting proximity to a unique point influenced by long-range interactions.
Contribution
It introduces a novel theory specifically addressing the tricriticality in miscut Si surfaces, highlighting the role of long-range interactions.
Findings
Identification of a tricritical point in Si(113) miscut surfaces
Proposition of a theoretical model explaining observed phase behavior
Implication of long-range interactions in surface phase transitions
Abstract
We propose a theory for the observed tricriticality in the orientational phase diagram of Si(113) misoriented towards [001]. The systems seems to be at or close to a very special point for long range interactions.
