Origin of line tension for a Lennard-Jones nanodroplet [PDF]
The existence and origin of line tension has remained controversial in literature. To address this issue we compute the shape of Lennard-Jones nanodrops using molecular dynamics and compare them to density functional theory in the approximation of the ...
