Abstract

We use the variational theorem to evaluate the domain of parameter space such that some film exists on a given surface. This is accomplished by determining the binding energy variationally for a monolayer film at T=0. The He results are for the most part consistent with those of Cheng, et al., for the domain of wetting films. New results for H₂ are compared with calculated parameters of noble gas adsorption potentials.
