We investigate the behaviour of solutions of a fractional semilinear partial differential equation that models the evolution of an interface in a random medium. We show a pinning result and apply it to the related homogenizing process.
We use the hyperbolic subdiffusion equation with fractional time derivatives (the generalized Cattaneo equation) to study the transport process of electrolytes in media where subdiffusion occurs. In this model the flux is delayed in a…
Vortex dynamics is strongly connected with the mechanisms responsible for the photon detection of superconducting devices. Indeed, the local suppression of superconductivity by photon absorption may trigger vortex nucleation and motion…
We investigate various analytical and numerical techniques for the coupling of nonlinear hyperbolic systems and, in particular, we introduce here an augmented formulation which allows for the modeling of the dynamics of interfaces between…
Oxide growth with semiconductor-like accuracy has led to atomically precise thin films and interfaces that exhibit a plethora of phases and functionalities not found in the oxide bulk material. This yielded spectacular discoveries such as…
This paper is concerned with the existence and further properties of propagation speeds of transition fronts for bistable reaction-diffusion equations in exterior domains and in some domains with multiple cylindrical branches. In exterior…
An experiment is proposed to test a previously developed theory of the hydrodynamics of a nonequilibrium heat current-induced superfluid-normal interface. It is shown that the interfacial ``trapped'' second sound mode predicted by the…
High-quality topological insulator-superconductor (TI-SC) heterostructure with an atomically sharp and well-controlled interface is crucial for realizing topological superconductivity and topological quantum qubit. In particular, many…
We experimentally investigate the magnetic field $B$ dependence of the critical current I_c and the transition temperature T_c, i.e. the I_c(B)-T_c(B) phase boundary, of superconducting niobium thin films patterned with periodic and…
We investigated the propagation of turbulent fronts in pipe flow at high Reynolds numbers by direct numerical simulation. We used a technique combining a moving frame of reference and an artificial damping to isolate the fronts in short…
The role of interface states and dielectric mismatch is studied in ultrathin P-doped silicon-on-insulator (SOI) films with thickness of the device layer ($H_{SOI}$) varying from 30 to 8 nm and dopant concentration ($n_{D}$) ranging from…
Recent experiments showed that thinning gallium, iron selenide and 2H tantalum disulfide to single/several monoatomic layer(s) enhances their superconducting critical temperatures. Here, we characterize these superconductors by extracting…
We present a fully first-principles method for superconducting thin films. The layer dependent phonon spectrum is calculated to determine the layer dependence of the electron-phonon coupling for such systems, which is coupled to the…
The rupture of dry frictional interfaces occurs through the propagation of fronts breaking the contacts at the interface. Recent experiments have shown that the velocities of these rupture fronts range from quasi-static velocities…
In this paper, a thermal-dynamical consistent model for mass transfer across permeable moving interfaces is proposed by using the energy variation method. We consider a restricted diffusion problem where the flux across the interface…
Phase fluctuations in finite thickness layered superconducting films are studied theoretically. The model consists of a set of layers, coupled to each other via a gradient-like term in the phase-only action. It is shown that the effective…
In this letter, we derive the sharp-interface limit of the Cahn-Hilliard-Biot equations using formal matched asymptotic expansions. We find that in each sub-domain, the quasi-static Biot equations are obtained with domain-specific material…
Interfacial superconductivity is observed in a variety of heterostructures composed of different materials including superconducting and nonsuperconducting (at appropriate doping and temperatures) cuprates and iron-based pnictides. The…
The resistance $R$ vs perpendicular external magnetic field $H$ was measured for superconducting Nb thin--film microbridges with and without microholes [antidots (ADs)]. Well below the transition temperature, integral $R(H)$ measurements of…
The miniaturization of electronic devices has led to the prominence, in technological applications, of ultra-thin films with a thickness ranging from a few tens of nanometers to just about 1-2 nanometers. While these materials are still…
