Abstract
A theoretical framework of effective interaction energies under a dimensional constraint is provided within the nearest neighbor pair interaction model. It is revealed that the υ0 term, the interaction energy for an empty cluster, under the dimensional constraint is the chemical energy of formation of an ordered compound. The result provides a clue to understand the microscopic origin of the appearance of an ordered phase in a III-V thin film constrained from a substrate material.
