Interfacial Phase Transitions

Interfacial Phase Transitions is a theoretical construct in interfacial thermodynamics that describes the singular class of phase changes occurring specifically at material interfaces, distinguished from bulk phase transitions by their dependence on interfacial energy, curvature, and local molecular interactions.
