Critical point wedge filling
Original language description
We present results of a microscopic density functional theory study of wedge filling transitions, at a right-angle wedge, in the presence of dispersionlike wall-fluid forces. Far from the corner the walls of the wedge show a first-order wetting transition at a temperature Tw which is progressively closer to the bulk critical temperature Tc as the strength of the wall forces is reduced. In addition, the meniscus formed near the corner undergoes a filling transition at a temperature Tf {Tw, the value of which is found to be in excellent agreement with macroscopic predictions. We show that the filling transition is first order if it occurs far from the critical point but is continuous if Tf is close to Tc even though the walls still show firstorder wetting behavior.
