It is often assumed that droplets dispensed into standard microplate wells will automatically fill their bottoms. We show here by computational simulation and experimental verification that the ability to fill the well bottom is dependent on the surface wetting characteristics. The release of droplets at the center wa…

We studied the multiferroic properties of the incommensurate spiral phase of ${\text{Mn}}_{1\ensuremath{-}x}{\text{Co}}_{x}{\text{WO}}_{4}$ using single-crystal neutron-diffraction and ferroelectric measurements. Whereas the rotational plane of the spin spiral is parallel to the $b$ axis for $x\ensuremath{\le}0.05$, i…

The frequency and direction dependence of transmission coefficients at interfaces was investigated theoretically. The interfaces are formed by having two Lennard-Jones materials differing in mass and interatomic potential equally divided at the center of an fcc lattice system. A single frequency wave-packet is generat…

By applying simulated annealing techniques we fit the modified embedded atom method (MEAM) potential to a database of ab initio energies for silicon and construct an improved parametrization of this potential. In addition, we introduce a new, reference-free version of the MEAM potential. This MEAM version is also fitt…

Nanocarrier systems are frequently characterized by their size distribution, while drug encapsulation in nanocarriers is generally characterized in terms of an entire population, assuming that drug distribution is uniform. Careful characterization of nanocarriers and assessment of their behavior in biological environm…

We investigate the stability of circular monolayer graphene subjected to a radial load using non-equilibrium molecular dynamics simulations. When monolayer graphene is radially stressed, after some small circular strain (∼0.4%) it buckles and bends into a new bowl-like shape. Young's modulus is calculated from the lin…

Abstract A 50‐GHz electric field tunable ferrite‐piezoelectric phase shifter based on a bilayer of single crystal M‐type hexagonal barium ferrite (BaM) and lead zirconate titanate (PZT) is discussed.A dc voltage applied to PZT results in a piezoelectric strain that manifests as an anisotropy field in BaM. A change in…

The micellization behavior of hybrid dendritic-star copolymers with solvophilic dendritic units is studied by means of Brownian dynamics simulations. The critical micelle concentration and the micelle size and shape are examined for different solvophobic/solvophilic ratios r as a function of the number of the dendriti…

We applied a Monte Carlo simulation in Geant4 in order to calculate the absorbed fractions for monoenergetic electrons in the energy interval between 10 keV and 2 MeV, uniformly distributed in ellipsoids made from soft tissue. For each volume, we simulated a spherical shape, four oblate and four prolate ellipsoids, an…

We have prepared CoFe2O4 nanoparticles in micellar medium by wet chemical technique and obtained very high coercivity value of 4.4 kOe at room temperature for particle size ∼16 nm. A large coercivity (∼20 kOe) is observed on cooling down to 2.5 K. We annealed the sample at different temperatures to check the role of m…

The oxidation state of Mn in cubic SrMnO(3) and orthorhombic SrMnO(2.5) was investigated by electron energy loss (EEL) spectroscopy. Change in the oxidation state of Mn produced some spectral changes in the O-K edge as well as in the Mn-L(2,3) edge EEL spectra. This study demonstrated that the oxidation state of Mn an…
