Abstract: We continue the study, initiated in [Giacomin and Lacoin, JEMS 2018], of the localization transition of a lattice free field $phi=(phi(x){)}_{xin{Z}^d}$, $dge3$, in presence of a quenched disordered substrate. The presence of the substrate affects the interface at the spatial sites in which the interface height is close to zero. This corresponds to the Hamiltonian ${\displaystyle }$ sum_{xin Z^d }(�eta omega_x+h)delta_x,${\displaystyle }$ where $delt{a}_x=1_{[-1,1]}(phi(x))$, and $(omeg{a}_x{)}_{xin{Z}^d}$ is an IID centered field. A transition takes place when the average pinning potential $h$ goes past a threshold $$: from a delocalized phase $$, where the field is macroscopically repelled by the substrate, to a localized one $$ where the field sticks to the substrate. In [Giacomin and Lacoin, JEMS 2018] the critical value of $h$ is identified and it coincides, up to the sign, with the $log$-Laplace transform of $omega=omeg{a}_x$, that is $$. Here we obtain the sharp critical behavior of the free energy approaching criticality: ${\displaystyle }$lim_{usearrow 0} frac{ F(�eta,h_c(�eta)+u)}{u^2}= frac{1}{2, extrm{Var}left(e^{�eta omega-lambda(�eta)} ight)}.${\displaystyle }$ Moreover, we give a precise description of the trajectories of the field in the same regime: the absolute value of the field is $$ to leading order when $$ except on a vanishing fraction of sites ($sigm{a}_d^2$ is the single site variance of the free field).
