Microscopic interplay of temperature and disorder of a one-dimensional elastic interface

Elisabeth Agoritsas, Thierry Giamarchi

Elastic interfaces display scale-invariant geometrical fluctuations at sufficiently large lengthscales. Their asymptotic static roughness then follows a power-law behavior, whose associated exponent provides a robust signature of the universality class to ...
