Amyloid filaments are associated with neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. Simplified models of amyloid aggregation are crucial because the original mass-action equations involve numerous variables, complicating…
A unified thermodynamic framework for characterization of functional materials is developed. This framework encompasses linear reversible and irreversible processes with thermal, electrical, magnetic, and/or mechanical effects coupled. The…
We present an ultrafast thermodynamics framework to model heat generation and entropy production in laser-driven ferromagnetic systems. By establishing a connection between the magnetic field strength of the laser pulse and magnetization…
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 critical issue affecting filamentary resistive random access memory (RRAM) cells is the requirement of high voltages during electroforming. Reducing the magnitude of these voltages is of significant interest, as it ensures compatibility…
The objective of this manuscript consists in a critical consideration of the Maximum Entropy Production Principle (MEPP) and an analysis of its corollaries for some (primarily morphological) nonequilibrium phase transitions.
The electronic nematic phase emerging with spontaneous rotation symmetry breaking is a central issue of modern condensed matter physics. In particular, various nematic phases in iron-based superconductors and high-$T_{\rm c}$ cuprate…
Non-volatile memory devices have received a lot of interest in both industry and academia in the last decade. Transition metal oxide-based memories offer potential applications as universal memory and artificial synapses. Here we focus on…
Beyond active material intrinsic properties, the electrode manufacturing process is a crucial step to reach high energy density and long-life of Li-ion batteries. In particular, very high pressures are applied to the electrode during the…
Materials with continuous dissipation can exhibit responses and functionalities that are not possible in thermodynamic equilibrium. While this concept is well-known, a major challenge has been the implementation: how to rationally design…
The filamentation instability of counterpropagating symmetric beams of electrons is examined with 1D and 2D particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations, which are oriented orthogonally to the beam velocity vector. The beams are uniform, warm and…
Active matter is rapidly becoming a key paradigm of out-of-equilibrium soft matter exhibiting complex collective phenomena, yet the thermodynamics of such systems remain poorly understood. In this letter we study the nonequilbrium…
A general description is given of a process of formation of an emf in a medium with nonequilibrium carriers. The appearance of anomalous emfs is predicted for several semiconductor structures. Such emfs appear as a result of photogeneration…
We establish Extended Thermodynamics (ET) of rarefied polyatomic gases with six independent fields, i.e., the mass density, the velocity, the temperature and the dynamic pressure, without adopting the near-equilibrium approximation. The…
We investigate a temperature-based model, called extended two-temperature model (eTTM), that describes the electronic non-equilibrium and its effect on energy dissipation in metals after ultrashort laser excitation. We derive and discuss…
Memristors as emergent nano-electronic devices have been successfully fabricated and used in non-conventional and neuromorphic computing systems in the last years. Several behavioral or physical based models have been developed to explain…
Symmetry-breaking is pivotal for controlling ferroelectric, ferroelastic and/or ferromagnetic functions of materials, which enables applications in sensors, memories, transducers or actuators. Commonly, ferroic phases emerge from descending…
The out-of-equilibrium character of active systems is often twofold, arising from both the activity itself and from non-reciprocal couplings between constituents. A well-established measure to quantify the system's distance from equilibrium…
A simple means of detecting and spatially mapping volatile and nonvolatile conductive filaments in metal/oxide/metal cross-point devices is introduced and its application demonstrated. The technique is based on thermal discolouration of a…
Atomistic simulations provide insights into structure-property relations on an atomic size and length scale, that are complementary to the macroscopic observables that can be obtained from experiments. Quantitative predictions, however, are…
