We show by numerical simulations that discretized versions of commonly studied continuum nonlinear growth equations (such as the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang equation and the Lai-Das Sarma equation) and related atomistic models of epitaxial growth…

Time-domain analysis of harmonic fields with sub-cycle resolution is now experimentally viable due to the emergence of sensitive, on-chip techniques for petahertz-scale optical-field sampling. We demonstrate how such a time-domain,…

Growth of hard--rod monolayers via deposition is studied in a lattice model using rods with discrete orientations and in a continuum model with hard spherocylinders. The lattice model is treated with kinetic Monte Carlo simulations and…

During the life of animals, epithelial tissues undergo extensive deformations--first to form organs during embryogensis and later to preserve integrity and function in adulthood. To what extent these deformations resemble that of non-living…

We studied the self-diffusion of colloidal ellipsoids in a monolayer near a flat wall by video microscopy. The image processing algorithm can track the positions and orientations of ellipsoids with sub-pixel resolution. The translational…

We study, through large scale stochastic simulations using the noise reduction technique, a large number of simple nonequilibrium limited mobility solid-on-solid growth models. We find that d=2+1 dimensional surface growth in several noise…

Lateral diffusion of molecules on surfaces plays a very important role in various biological processes, including lipid transport across the cell membrane, synaptic transmission and other phenomena such as exo- and endocytosis, signal…

We report the interplay between In incorporation and strain relaxation kinetics in high-In-content InxGa1-xN (x = 0.3) layers grown by plasma-assisted molecular-beam epitaxy. For In mole fractions x = 0.13-0.48, best structural and…

Four-dimensional optics leverages the simultaneous control of materials in space and time to manipulate light. A key challenge in experimentally realizing many intriguing phenomena is the need for rapid modulation, which is hindered by the…

We use molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to study surface-directed spinodal decomposition (SDSD) in unstable binary ($AB$) fluid mixtures at wetting surfaces. The thickness of the wetting layer $R_1$ grows with time $t$ as a power-law…

Characterization of self-consistent laser-plasma evolutions serves as a fundamental issue in the field of relativistic laser-plasma interactions. In this paper, we present an analysis framework for description of these evolutions during…

The strain state and composition of a 400 nm thick (In,Ga)N layer grown by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition on a GaN template are investigated by spatially integrated x-ray diffraction and cathodoluminescence (CL) spectroscopy as…

We report on the selective-area chemical beam epitaxial growth of InAs in-plane, one-dimensional (1-D) channels using patterned SiO$_{2}$-coated InP(001), InP(111)B, and InP(110) substrates to establish a scalable platform for topological…

The authors have applied positron annihilation spectroscopy to study the effect of different growth conditions on vacancy formation in In- and N-polar InN grown by plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy. The results suggest that the…

Non-linear effects in the dynamical evolution of a shearing sheet made of stars are studied. First the implications of hitherto neglected non-linearities of the Boltzmann equation for the dynamical evolution of the shearing sheet are…

Evolution of composition patterns in the annealed, single-crystal surface alloy film is considered in the presence of the spinodal decomposition, the compositional stress and the diffusion anisotropy. While the former two effects contribute…

During epitaxial crystal growth a pattern that has initially been imprinted on a surface approximately reproduces itself after the deposition of an integer number of monolayers. Computer simulations of the one-dimensional case show that the…

Evolution of the single-mode ablative Rayleigh-Taylor instability in the presence of preheating is investigated numerically. It is found that the instability evolution depends strongly on the preheating length $L$ in front of the…

Space-time modulated elastic media, whose material properties vary in both space and time, have attracted significant attention as a promising strategy for achieving nonreciprocal propagation of elastic waves. To date, most studies have…

We put forward new properties of lattice solitons in materials and geometries where both, the linear refractive index and the nonlinearity are spatially modulated. We show that the interplay between linear and out-of-phase nonlinear…
