Electrical conductivity of dry, slow cooled (AgPO$_3$)$_{1-x}$(AgI)$_x$ glasses is examined as a function of temperature, frequency and glass composition. From these data compositional trends in activation energy for conductivity E$_A$(x),…
We construct a coarse-grained molecular dynamics model based on poly(ethylene oxide) and lithium bis-(trifluoromethane)sulfonimide salt to examine the combined effects of temperature and salt concentration on the transport properties. Salt…
Peculiarities of mixed cation effect in ternary glasses whose composition involves alkali and non-alkali unicharged ions and/or alkaline earth ions are explored within context of defect model for mixed mobile ion effect (V. Belostotsky, J.…
Heat transfer in liquids is a very challenging problem as it combines the competing effect of high frequency oscillations, which dominate liquid heat capacity, and diffusive motion, which enables transport macroscopic flow. This issue is…
A theoretical analysis of Coulomb systems on lattices in general dimensions is presented. The thermodynamics is developed using Debye-Huckel theory with ion-pairing and dipole-ion solvation, specific calculations being performed for 3D…
The glass transition, extensively studied in dense fluids, polymers, or colloids, corresponds to a dramatic evolution of equilibrium transport coefficients upon a modest change of control parameter, like temperature or pressure. A similar…
We present extensive molecular dynamics simulations of a liquid of symmetric dumbbells, for constant packing fraction, as a function of temperature and molecular elongation. For large elongations, translational and rotational degrees of…
We report on the existence of temperature induced negative differential conductivity (NDC) for electrons in gaseous nitrogen. The important role of superelastic rotational collisional processes in this phenomenon is highlighted. A model…
The available sites for ions in a typical disordered ionic conductor are determined. For this purpose we devised a straightforward algorithm which via cluster analysis identifies these sites from long time ionic trajectories below the glass…
Solid-state electrolytes, by enabling lithium metal anodes, may significantly increase the energy density of current lithium-ion batteries. However, similar to their liquid counterparts, these hard and stiff electrolytes can still be…
Zinc ferrite (ZnFe$_{\text{2}}$O$_{\text{4}}$) epitaxial thin films were grown by reactive magnetron sputtering on MgAl$_{\text{2}}$O$_{\text{4}}$ and Al$_{\text{2}}$O$_{\text{3}}$ substrates varying a range of preparation parameters. The…
The dynamics of a dense binary mixture of soft dumbbells, each subject to an active propulsion force and thermal fluctuations, shows a sudden arrest, first to a translational then to a rotational glass, as one reduces temperature $T$ or the…
We have performed dielectric spectroscopy on the molecular glass-formers glycerol, propylene carbonate (PC) and the ionic melts CKN and CRN. The frequency range covers almost 20 decades from some micro-Hz to some THz. The meausrement…
The field-dependent ion transport in thin samples of different glasses is characterised by means of nonlinear conductivity spectroscopy. AC electric fields with strengths up to 77 kV/cm are applied to the samples, and the Fourier components…
We consider the stationary state of a fluid comprised of inelastic hard spheres or disks under the influence of a random, momentum-conserving external force. Starting from the microscopic description of the dynamics, we derive a nonlinear…
Low-energy excitations play a key role in all condensed-matter systems, yet there is limited understanding of their nature in glasses, where they correspond to local rearrangements of groups of particles. Here we introduce an algorithm to…
The intricate role of shear viscosity and ion-pair relaxations on ionic conductivity mechanisms and the underlying changes induced by salt concentration ($c$) in organic liquid electrolytes remain poorly understood despite their widespread…
Magnetic separation has emerged as an eco-friendly and sustainable technique with applications in water purification, chemical separation, biochemical, medical, and mining. In this study, we present, a combined experimental and theoretical…
Single particle dynamics of water confined in a nanopore is studied through Computer Molecular Dynamics. The pore is modeled to represent the average properties of a pore of Vycor glass. Dynamics is analyzed at different hydration levels…
The steady state values of the viscosity and the intrinsic ionic-conductivity of quenched melts are computed, in terms of independently measurable quantities. The frequency dependence of the ac dielectric response is estimated. The…
