Abstract

The saturation of order parameters in phase transitions at low temperatures can arise from two mechanisms; true saturation of the order parameter, and quantum mechanical saturation. The effect of these two processes on graphs of order parameter versus temperature and on phase diagrams in a range of systems is described.
