We examine the thermally-induced fracture of an unstrained polymer chain of discrete segments coupled by an anharmonic potential by means of Molecular Dynamics simulation with a Langevin thermostat. Cases of both under- and over-damped…
We performed Scanning Thermal Microscopy measurements on single layers of chemical-vapor-deposited -CVD- graphene supported by different substrates, namely SiO2, Al2O3 and PET using a double-scan technique to remove the contribution to the…
We study the relaxation of a thermal grating in multilayer materials with interface thermal resistances. The analytical development allows for the nu- merical determination of this thermal property in Approach to Equilibrium Molecular…
The glass transition in amorphous poly(ethylene terephthalate) is studied by thermally stimulated depolarization currents (TSDC) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The ability of TSDC to decompose a distributed relaxation, as the…
We have studied the effect of nitriding on the humidity sensing properties of hydrogenated amorphous carbon (a-C:H) films. The films were prepared in two stages combining the techniques of physical deposition in vapor phase evaporation…
Samples of heavy fermion compound CeCu6 were prepared by hot-press technique. Temperature-dependent (5-300 K) thermoelectric transport properties of the samples were measured. The dimensionless figure-of-merit (ZT) was optimized by varying…
We present a non-invasive technique for measuring the thermal conductivity of fragile and sensitive materials. In the context of planet formation research, the investigation of the thermal conductivity of porous dust aggregates provide…
We report an experimental study on the drying of silica colloidal dispersions. Here we focus on a surface instability occurring in a drying paste phase before crack formation which affects the final film quality. Observations at macroscopic…
Superelastic NiTi tubes are promising candidates for eco-friendly elastocaloric cooling, but their cyclic stability suffers severely from functional degradation. Herein, we investigate the functional degradation of nanocrystalline NiTi…
Thin membranes exhibit complex responses to external forces or geometrical constraints. A familiar example is the wrinkling, exhibited by human skin, plant leaves, and fabrics, resulting from the relative ease of bending versus stretching.…
