Abstract
The butatriene-to-acetylene transition in polydiacetylene (PD) due to thermal and quantum fluctuation is investigated by using a simple continuum model. We started from general principle of statistical mechanics to discuss the rate of thermal and quantum nucleation. It is concluded that the structure-phase-transition is due to thermal fluctuation at higher, and quantum fluctuation at lower temperature mainly. It agrees with the experimental results.
