The structure of crystalline interfaces plays an important role in solid-state reactions. The Al2O3/MgAl2O4/MgO system provides an ideal model system for investigating the mechanisms underlying the migration of interfaces during interface…
Intercalation at the graphene/SiC interface provides a controlled route to stabilize atomically thin layers with properties distinct from their bulk counterparts. In this platform, the structure and stability of the intercalated phase…
High pressure in-situ synchrotron X-ray diffraction experiments were performed on Ag2Te up to 42.6 GPa at room temperature and four phases were identified. Phase I ({\beta}-Ag2Te) transformed into phase II at 2.4 GPa, and phase III and…
Silver interlayers have been shown to enable smooth lithium deposition and cycling in anode-free solid-state batteries. Here, we report the atomic structure of the Ag and Li interface, showing that Li preferentially plates as FCC on both…
Low-dimensional boundaries between phases and domains in organic thin films are important in charge transport and recombination. Here, fluctuations of interfacial boundaries in an organic thin film, acridine-9-carboxylic acid (ACA) on…
Using Monte Carlo simulations we investigate some new aspects of the phase diagram and the behavior of the diffusion coefficient in an associating lattice gas (ALG) model on different regions of the phase diagram. The ALG model combines a…
The creep behaviour and microstructural evolution of a Sn-3Ag-0.5Cu wt.% sample with a columnar microstructure have been investigated through in-situ creep testing under constant stress of 30 MPa at 298 K. This is important, as 298 K is…
We studied metallic Ag formation inside and on the surface of Ag2S thin films, induced by the electric field created with a STM tip. Two clear regimes were observed: cluster formation on the surface at low bias voltages, and full…
Precipitation of the \gamma' (AlAg2) phase was investigated in Al-Ag(-Cu) alloys using high resolution transmission electron microscopy and scanning transmission electron microscopy. Precipitation commenced with segregation of silver to…
We investigated the adsorption of iodine on silver (111) in ultra-high vacuum. Using low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy (LT-STM) measurements we catalog the complex surface structures on the local scale. We identified three…
We present an atomistic description of the {\it fcc}--to--{\it hcp} transformation mechanism in solid argon (Ar) obtained from transition path sampling molecular dynamics simulation. The phase transition pathways collected during the…
A comparative computational study of stability of candidate structures for an as yet unknown silver dichloride AgCl2 is presented. It is found that all considered candidates have a negative enthalpy of formation, but are unstable towards…
Conserved lattice gas (CLG) models in one dimension exhibit absorbing state phase transition (APT) with simple integer exponents $\beta=1=\nu=\eta$ whereas the same on a ladder belong to directed percolation (DP)universality. We conjecture…
Semicoherent precipitates govern strength, stability and transformation pathways in structural alloys, yet the kinetic defect process underlying their three-dimensional growth has remained unresolved. Here we show that lath growth is driven…
The temporal evolution of step-edge fluctuations under electromigration conditions is analysed using a continuum Langevin model. If the electromigration driving force acts in the step up/down direction, and step-edge diffusion is the…
Atomically thin silver (Ag) films offer unique opportunities in plasmonic, quantum optics, and energy harvesting, yet conventional growth methods struggle to achieve structural control at the monolayer limit. Here, we demonstrate…
The early stage of the reactive interdiffusion in the Cu-Al system was investigated at 350 {\textdegree}C and 300 {\textdegree}C thanks to in-situ transmission electron microscopy. A special care was given to find conditions where the…
We investigate solidification of an Al-Al2Cu as a model system to understand the emergence of patterns (such as lamellar, rod and maze-like) within eutectic colonies. To uncover the morphological transitions in-situ and in 3D, we introduce…
A multidiagnostic approach, utilizing Langmuir probes in the midplane, X-point and divertor walls, along with Lithium beam and infrared measurements is employed to evaluate the evolution of the Scrape-off Layer (SOL) of ASDEX Upgrade across…
We report on the observation of two types of current driven transitions in metastable vortex lattices. The metastable states, which are missed in usual slow transport measurements, are detected with a fast transport technique in the vortex…
