We use a discrete dislocation dynamics (DDD) approach to study the motion of a dislocation under strong stochastic forces that may cause bending and roughening of the dislocation line on scales that are comparable to the dislocation core…
We consider diffusion of vibrations in 3d harmonic lattices with strong force-constant disorder. Above some frequency w_IR, corresponding to the Ioffe-Regel crossover, notion of phonons becomes ill defined. They cannot propagate through the…
We load cold atoms into an optical lattice dramatically reshaped by radiofrequency (rf) coupling of state-dependent lattice potentials. This rf dressing changes the unit cell of the lattice at a subwavelength scale, such that its curvature…

Traditionally, X-ray scattering techniques have been used to detect the breaking of the structural symmetry of the lattice, which accompanies a periodic displacement of the atoms associated with charge density wave (CDW) formation in the…
The thermodynamic description of dislocation glide in crystals depends crucially on the shape of the Peierls barrier that the dislocation has to overcome when moving in the lattice. While the height of this barrier can be obtained…
