Yttria stabilized Zirconia (YSZ) pellets with different crystallite sizes were irradiated with 80 MeV Ag$^{6+}$ ions at room temperature and 1000 K to understand the role of crystallite size/material microstructure and irradiation…
The microwave performance of amorphous dielectric materials at very low temperatures and very low excitation strengths displays significant excess loss. Here, we present the loss tangents of some common amorphous and crystalline…
Experiments and simulations are used to study the kinetics of crystal growth in a mixture of magnetic and nonmagnetic particles suspended in ferrofluid. The growth process is quantified using both a bond order parameter and a mean domain…
A single-phase polycrystalline La0.5Ba0.5CoO3-d sample was synthesized by microwave irradiation within 20 minutes of processing time and its structural, magnetic, electrical, and magnetostrictive properties were investigated. While the…
Water can be vitrified if it is cooled at rates exceeding $3*10^5$ K/s. This makes it possible to outrun crystallization in so-called no man's land, a range of deeply supercooled temperatures where water crystallizes rapidly. One would…
The damage growth and surface modifications in Si(100), induced by 25 keV Si$_5^-$ cluster ions, as a function of fluence, $\phi$, has been studied using atomic force microscopy (AFM) and channeling Rutherford backscattering spectrometry…
Serpentinization of ultramafic rocks is a naturally occurring mineralogical process that can generate molecular hydrogen through the oxidation of ferrous iron during water-rock reaction. Although the resource potential is large, the natural…
The performance of modern electronics is associated with the multi-layered interconnects, encouraging the development of a low-k dielectrics. Herein, we studied the effects of phase transition from crystalline to amorphous on dielectric,…
Intense femtosecond x-ray pulses produced by an x-ray free-electron laser can trigger irreversible structural transitions in crystalline solids. For instance, irradiation of diamond can lead to graphitization and, at higher deposited doses,…
We study crystalline fluoride microresonators for mid-infrared applications. Whispering gallery mode resonators were fabricated with BaF$_2$, CaF$_2$ and MgF$_2$ crystals. The quality factors were measured at wavelengths of 1.56 {\mu}m and…
Using molecular dynamics (MD) simulation, we investigate the mechanical response of silicon to high dose ion-irradiation. We employ a realistic and efficient model to directly simulate ion beam induced amorphization. Structural properties…
A combined experimental and computational study of the recrystallization process induced by swift heavy ions in pre-damaged silicon carbide crystals was reported in a recent paper by Debelle et al. [Phys. Rev. B 86, 100102(R) (2012)]. In…
We present tight-binding molecular dynamics simulations of the structural modifications that result from the "thermal spike" that occurs during the passage of a heavy fast ion through a thin diamond or amorphous carbon layer, and the…
Significant (4%) absorption of microwave power focused on a thin fiber (the diameter is three orders of magnitude less than the wavelength) is demonstrated experimentally.
Experiments have shown that the microwave ionization probability of a highly excited almost monodimensional hydrogen atom subjected to a microwave pulse sometimes grows in steps when the peak electric field of the pulse is increased.…
The processing of energetic photons on bare silicate grains was simulated experimentally on silicate films submitted to soft X-rays of energies up to 1.25 keV. The silicate material was prepared by means of a microwave assisted solgel…
X-ray microtomography (XMT), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and magnetic hysteresis measurements were used to determine micrometeorite internal structure, mineralogy, crystallography, and physical properties at ~{\mu}m resolution. The study…
The evaporation of drops of water placed at the center of long poly(methyl methacrylate) microfluidic channels with a rectangular cross section of 0.38 mm2 is studied by simultaneously monitoring the shapes of two samples, one is in a 300…
In this paper we report measurements of 1/f noise in a crystalline metallic oxide with perovskite structure down to 4.2K. The results show existence of localized excitations with average activation energy $\approx$ 70-80 meV which produce…
The semicylindrical microresonator with relatively simple excitation with a plane wave is studied. The resonator is formed on the base of the dielectric/metal/dielectric structure, where the wave energy penetrates into resonator through a…
