This allows generalizing the definition of Gibbs' quantity $\\sigma$ (surface work often called the solid-fluid interfacial free energy) at a planar surface as an excess grand thermodynamic potential per unit surface area that (1) does not depend on the dividing surface location and (2) is common for fluids and solids.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2009-10-08T19:32:29.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "65.40.G-", "65.60.+a", "05.70.Ce" ], "keywords": [ "solid bodies", "grand potential", "solid-fluid interfacial free energy", "excess grand thermodynamic potential", "unit surface area" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "AIP", "journal": "Journal of Chemical Physics", "year": 2009, "month": "Oct", "volume": 131, "number": 16, "pages": 1104 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 6, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2009JChPh.131p1104R" } } }
