An elastic anomaly, observed in the heavy Fermi liquid state of Ce alloys (for example, CeCu_6 and CeTe), is analyzed by using the infinite-U Anderson lattice model. Four atomic energy levels are assumed for f-electrons. Two of them are…
In the ongoing search for innovative thermoelectric (TE) materials with superior TE performance globally, we aim to investigate the possible use of half-Heusler alloy CoHfSi in TE applications. We analyzed the structure stability,…
The stability of the excitonic condensation at low temperature driven by a coupling of electrons to vibrational degrees of freedom in semimetal two-dimensional electronic system is discussed. In the framework of the unrestricted…
A recent and unexpected discrepancy between \textit{ab initio} simulations and the interpretation of a laser shock experiment on aluminum, probed by X-ray Thomson scattering (XRTS), is addressed. The ion-ion structure factor deduced from…
Ultrafast laser material processing has received significant attention due to a growing need for the fabrication of miniaturized devices at micro- and nanoscales. The traditional phenomenological laws, such as Fourier's law of heat…
The elastic constants of an unconventional superconductor, UTe$_2$, were investigated using ultrasound. In this paper, we report the elastic response of the normal state at temperatures down to 2 K and up to 14 T for $H \parallel b$ at…
Understanding microstructural evolution under extreme thermal conditions is essential for advancing metal additive manufacturing (AM). This work demonstrates the feasibility of employing micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) heating…
A nonlocal energy-balance equation is derived for the optical absorption, photoluminescence and inelastic electron-phonon scattering, which determines the electron and hole temperatures for any given lattice temperature. The evolution of…
Photoexcited hot carriers in solids can drive processes, such as photocatalytic reactions on the surface, beyond those available in thermal equilibrium. Hot-electron-mediated reaction pathways are limited by the thermalization of the…
We investigate the momentum-resolved dynamics of conduction electrons in noble metals following ultrashort optical excitation with linearly polarized light. Using a momentum-resolved Boltzmann equation approach for electron-phonon…
We propose a method to model metallic surfaces in Lattice Boltzmann Electrokinetics simulations (LBE), a lattice-based algorithm rooted in kinetic theory which captures the coupled solvent and ion dynamics in electrolyte solutions. This is…
Ultrathin passive films effectively prevent the chemical attack of stainless steel grades in corrosive environments; their stability critically depends on the interplay between structure and chemistry of the constituents Fe-Cr-Mo. In…
Steels, and in particular stainless steels, play a crucial role in the construction of large particle accelerators and high-energy physics experiments, of fusion reactors and their superconducting magnet structures. Such projects face…
A large electric field is typically present in anodic or passive oxide films. Stresses induced by such a large electric field are critical in understanding the breakdown mechanism of thin oxide films and improving their corrosion…
Experimental advances in condensed matter physics and material science have enabled ready access to atomic-resolution images, with resolution of modern tools often sufficient to extract minute details of symmetry-breaking distortions such…
The simulation of non-equilibrium electron distributions is essential for capturing light-metal interactions and therefore the study of photoabsorption, photocatalysis, laser ablation, and many other phenomena. Current methodologies, such…
A laser-ultrasonic approach was used to measure elastic properties of a superelastic nickel-titanium wire with the aim to evaluate their evolution with stress and temperature in stress-induced martensite. It was observed that this evolution…
Cu${}_{50-x}$Zr${}_{x}$ (x = 50, 54, 60 and 66.6) polycrystalline alloys were prepared by arc-melting. The crystal structure of the ingots has been examined by X-ray diffraction. Non-equilibrium martensitic phases with monoclinic structure…
We investigate the time-dependent reformation of the quasiparticle peak in a correlated metal near the Mott transition, after the system is quenched into a hot electron state and equilibrates with an environment which is colder than the…
The temperature and magnetic field dependence of lattice and carrier excitations in MnSi is studied in detail using inelastic light scattering. The pure symmetry components of the electronic response are derived from the polarization…
