contents In this paper, we present several unconditionally energy-stable invariant energy quadratization (IEQ) finite element methods (FEMs) with linear, first- and second-order accuracy for solving both the Cahn-Hilliard equation and the Allen-Cahn equation. For time discretization, we compare three distinct IEQ-FEM schemes that position the intermediate function introduced by the IEQ approach in different function spaces: finite element space, continuous function space, or a combination of these spaces. Rigorous proofs establishing the existence and uniqueness of the numerical solution, along with analyses of energy dissipation for both equations and mass conservation for the Cahn-Hilliard equation, are provided. The proposed schemes' accuracy, efficiency, and solution properties are demonstrated through numerical experiments.
