摘要：

We calculate, for a spin-1/2 Ising model within the mean-field approximation, the line tension along partial-wetting surface states up to a first-order wetting transition where the line disappears. We likewise calculate the line tension of the boundary between the two coexisting surface states at the prewetting transition and follow its behavior into the neighborhood of bulk wetting. In both cases we find evidence for the divergence of the line tension.
