Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Preroughening (PR) of a crystal surface can be induced by the tendency of the surface to melt. We show this analytically in a generalized solid-on-solid model and numerically by simulating the surface as an interface in the 3D N-state lattice Potts model, which for large enough N is shown to exhibit PR, roughening, and surface melting. The onset of PR is linked to the appearance of liquidlike signatures in the surface layer, and can be either continuous or first order. We suggest that this physics provides the natural explanation of the first-order PR of rare-gas-solid (111) surfaces. © 1999 The American Physical Society.
