Faceted grain boundaries exhibit unusual segregation and migration tendencies. To gain a deeper understanding of how solute atoms interact with faceted interfacial structures during migration, this study probes the migration behavior of a…
Observational studies of magnetic fields are vital as magnetic fields play a crucial role in various astrophysical processes, including star formation, accretion of matter, transport processes (e.g., transport of heat), and cosmic rays. We…
A comprehensive theory is presented for the voltage, temperature, and spatial dependence of the tunneling current between a scanning tunneling microscope (STM) tip and a metallic surface with an individual magnetic adatom. Modeling the…
Under the application of electrical currents, metal nanocrystals inside carbon nanotubes can be bodily transported. We examine experimentally and theoretically how an iron nanocrystal can pass through a constriction in the carbon nanotube…
Layered transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) offer many attractive features for next-generation low-dimensional device geometries. Due to the practical and fabrication challenges related to in situ methods, the atomistic dynamics that…
The existing theoretical analyses of solidification dynamics lack the insights of historical relevance and transport processes in the whole system. Through the phase-field model, this paper investigates the evolution in the whole domain…
Thermo-osmosis refers to fluid migration due to temperature gradient. The mechanistic understanding of thermo-osmosis in charged nano-porous media is still incomplete, while it is important for several environmental and energy applications,…
The mixed alkali or mixed mobile ion effect in glasses manifests itself by strong nonlinear variations of ionic transport properties upon mixing of different types of mobile ions. We develop a theory for this effect based on thermally…
The influence of ordered regions (micro crystallites and aggregates) in the other wise disordered polymer host matrix on field and temperature dependence of mobility (\mu) has been simulated. Increase in concentration of ordered regions…
Understanding and controlling nanoparticle coalescence is crucial for applications ranging from catalysis to nanodevice fabrication, yet the behavior of nanoparticles on dynamically evolving, heterogeneous substrates remains poorly…
We propose a method to determine the direction of surface magnetization and local magnetic moments on the atomic scale. The method comprises high resolution scanning tunneling microscope experiments in conjunction with first principles…
The corrosion behavior of NiCr alloys in molten FLiNaK salt is governed by complex Cr-F chemical interactions, necessitating a fundamental understanding for enhancing alloy performance in harsh environments. However, significant gaps remain…
The unusual magneto-transport properties of manganites are widely believed to be caused by mixed-phase tendencies and concomitant percolative processes. However, dramatic deviations from "standard" percolation have been unveiled…
Heterogeneous catalysts consisting of supported metallic nanoparticles typically derive exceptional catalytic activity from their large proportion of under-coordinated surface sites which promote adsorption of reactant molecules.…
Following nuclear decay, a daughter atom in a solid will "stay in place" if the recoil energy is less than the threshold for displacement. At high temperature, it may subsequently undergo long-range diffusion or some other kind of atomic…
In contrast to silicon-based transistors, single molecule junctions can be gated by simple mechanical means. Specifically, charge can be transferred between the junction's electrodes and its molecular bridge when the interelectrode distance…
We analyze the effect of a gate on the conductance of molecules by separately evaluating the gate-induced polarization and the potential shift of the molecule relative to the leads. The calculations use ab initio density functional theory…
Interest to ferroelectric materials has been increased significantly in last decades due to development of new generation of nonlinear optical and data storage devices. Scanning probe microscopy (SPM) can be used both for study of domain…
The origin of the dramatic slowdown of dynamics near the glass transition temperature (Tg) remains a long-standing fundamental and unresolved issue in soft condensed matter. While single-molecule (SM) experiments using fluorescent probes…
This study investigates the interfacial tension, fluid mobility, and crystallization behavior of various saline and additive-modified solutions in a microfluidic chip environment, simulating pore-scale processes during CO2 injection. The…
