We investigate the kinetic roughening of Ar$^+$ ion-sputtered Pd(001) surface both experimentally and theoretically. \textit{In situ} real-time x-ray reflectivity and \textit{in situ} scanning tunneling microscopy show that nanoscale adatom…

We study the scaling properties of self-flattening surfaces under global suppression on surface fluctuations. Evolution of self-flattening surfaces is described by restricted solid-on-solid type monomer deposition-evaporation model with…

In this article we investigate the induction of a surface anisotropy due to the displacement of the vortex core in a cylindrical nanostructure. In fact, the effect of the displacement of the vortex core in the dipolar energy can be modeled…

Concave-shaped 4H-SiC {0001} surfaces have been prepared and reconstructed in pure liquid silicon for investigating the structure and morphology evolution of the SiC surface as a function of both azimuthal and off-axis angles. Different…

It is shown that a suspension of particles in a partially-filled, horizontal, rotating cylinder is linearly unstable towards axial segregation and an undulation of the free surface at large enough particle concentrations. Relying on the…

In superconductors penetrated by Abrikosov vortices the magnetic pressure and the inhomogeneous condensate density induce a deformation of the ionic lattice. We calculate how this deformation corrugates the surface of a semi-infinite…

In a well-known paper by Bruna, Nagel and Wainger [BNW], Fourier transform decay estimates were proved for smooth hypersurfaces of finite line type bounding a convex domain. In this paper, we generalize their results in the following ways.…

Stable cross-sections of multi-walled carbon nanotubes subjected to electron-beam irradiation are investigated in the realm of the continuum mechanics approximation. The self-healing nature of sp$^2$ graphitic sheets implies that selective…

Nontrivial infinitesimal bendings for a class of two-dimensional surfaces are constructed. The surfaces considered here are orientable; compact; with boundary; have positive curvature everywhere except at finitely many planar points; and…

Refraction and deflection of shear zones in layered granular materials was studied experimentally and numerically. We show, that (i) according to a recent theoretical prediction [T. Unger, Phys. Rev. Lett. 98, 018301 (2007)] shear zones…

We consider smoothings of a complex surface with singularities of class T and no nontrivial holomorphic vector field. Under an hypothesis of non degeneracy of the smoothing at each singular point, we prove that if the singular surface…

We report an experimental assessment of surface kinetic roughening properties that are anisotropic in space. Working for two specific instances of silicon surfaces irradiated by ion-beam sputtering under diverse conditions (with and without…

We combine two-dimensional freeform reflector design with a scattering surface modelled using microfacets, i.e., small specular surfaces representing surface roughness. The model results in a convolution integral for the scattered light…

We show that the decay of sinusoidal ripples on crystal surfaces, where mass transport is limited by the attachment and detachment of atoms at the step-edges, is remarkably different from the decay behavior that has been reported until now.…

At a given temperature, clean and adatom covered silicon surfaces usually exhibit well-defined reconstruction patterns. Our finite temperature ab-initio molecular dynamics calculations show that the tellurium covered Si(001) surface is an…

A simple (2+1) dimensional discrete model is introduced to study the evolution of solid surface morphologies during ion-beam sputtering. The model is based on the same assumptions about the erosion process as the existing analytic theories.…

The Gauss map of non-degenerate surfaces in the three-dimensional Minkowski space are viewed as dynamical fields of the two-dimensional O(2,1) Nonlinear Sigma Model. In this setting, the moduli space of solutions with rotational symmetry is…

A direct numerical solution of the steady-state Boltzmann equation in a cylindrical geometry is reported. Finite-size effects are investigated in large semiconducting nanowires using the relaxation-time approximation. A nanowire is modelled…

Accumulation layers with very large concentrations of electrons where many subbands are filled became recently available due to ionic liquid and other new methods of gating. The low temperature mobility in such layers is limited by the…

Recent experimental studies have shown that well-annealed, unstrained Si(105) surfaces appear disordered and atomically rough when imaged using scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM). We construct new models for the Si(105) surface that are…
