The lateral capillary interaction between two particles immersed in a spherical thin liquid film is investigated. The interfacial shape, the lateral capillary force and the interparticle energy are calculated by using the numerical solution of the linearized Laplace equation of capillarity. Orthogonal bipolar coordina…

A technique for fabricating submicron free-standing silicon pillars has been developed. The silicon pillars have a high packing density, and aspect ratios over 50:1 can easily be achieved. Photoassisted electrochemical etching in hydrofluoric acid is used to etch deep macropores in n-type silicon wafers which have bee…

We present molecular dynamics results for the existence of long-lived clusters near the glass transition in a two component, two-dimensional Lennard-Jones supercooled liquid. Several properties of this system are similar to a mean-field glass-forming liquid near the spinodal. This similarity suggests that the glass ``…

Metastable Ge1−yCy alloys were grown by molecular beam epitaxy as homogeneous solid solutions having a diamond lattice structure. The substrates were (100) oriented Si wafers and the growth temperature was 600 °C. We report on measurements of the composition, structure, lattice constant, and optical absorption of the…

The classical formulae of piezoelectric and electrostriction effects in crystals are generalized to quasicrystals. Two types of strain (phonon strain and phason strain) induced by electric fields have been studied. According to group representation theory, the matrix forms of piezoelectric and electrostriction tensors…

A recent free-energy model for charged Yukawa mixtures enables one to obtain, in simple analytic form, the diffusion coefficients of dense plasmas from those for ``effective'' hard spheres. This hard-sphere model was checked by new molecular dynamics simulations of highly asymmetric binary ionic mixtures to demonstrat…

Highly oriented a-axis BaTiO3 thin films were grown by pulsed laser deposition on (001) MgO substrates. The full width at half-maximum of the (200) BaTiO3 rocking curve was as narrow as 0.6°. A large hysteretic quadratic electro-optic effect was observed in a transverse geometry at 6328 Å. A birefringence shift up to…

Sudden topological rearrangement of neighboring bubbles in a foam occur during coarsening, and can also be induced by applied forces. Diffusing-wave spectroscopy measurements are presented of such dynamics before, during, and after an imposed shear strain. The rate of rearrangements is proportional to the strain rate,…

Comparisons of the spectral characteristics of sonoluminescence from cavitation in bubble fields (MBSL) versus cavitation of single bubbles (SBSL) have been made for aqueous solutions under similar experimental conditions. In particular, alkali metal chloride solutions exhibit sonoluminescence emission from excited st…

Using path-integral Monte Carol simulations and an ab initio effective Hamiltonian, we study the effects of quantum fluctuations on structural phase transitions in the cubic perovskite compounds SrTiO3 and BaTiO3. We find quantum fluctuations affect ferroelectric (FE) transitions more strongly than antiferrodistortive…

Copper zinc ferrites ( Cu 1−x Zn x Fe 2 O 4 ) with x = 0.1, 0.2, 0.3 were prepared by solid state reaction technique. The samples were presintered at 900°C for 40 to 45 hrs and finally at 950°C for 4 hrs followed by air quenching. The lattice parameter, X-ray densities (D m ), grain size, bulk densities (D) and porosi…

Abstract Recent developments in research on polyimides for high temperature applications have led to the synthesis of many new polymers. Among the criteria that determines their thermal oxidative stability, isothermal aging is one of the most important. Isothermal aging studies require that many experimental factors a…

We study the Jahn-Teller effect of positive fullerene ions $^2$C$_{60}^{+}$ and $^1$C$_{60}^{2+}$. The aim is to discover if this case, in analogy with the negative ion, possesses a Berry phase or not, and what are the consequences on dynamical Jahn-Teller quantization. Working in the linear and spherical approximatio…

Highly conductive ruthenium oxide (RuO2) has been epitaxially grown on LaAlO3 substrates by pulsed laser deposition. The RuO2 film is (h00) oriented normal to the substrate surface. The heteroepitaxial growth of RuO2 on LaAlO3 is demonstrated by the strong in-plane orientation of thin films with respect to the major a…
