Bulk and nanoconfined liquids have very different physics; for instance, nanoconfined liquids show stratification and position-dependent relaxation processes. A number of similarities between bulk and nanoconfined liquids have nevertheless been reported in computer simulations during the last decade. Inspired by these…

The origin of passivity, as viewed from the Point Defect Model, is presented in terms of the phase space analysis of the rate law for the growth of passive films. It is shown that passivity is due to the formation of a metastable oxide and hence, the occurrence of passivity is a kinetic phenomenon, in which the rate o…

The growth of (0002) orientated polycrystalline undoped and Ga-doped ZnO films by DC sputtering under Ar is described. The (0002) peak intensity decreases with increasing substrate temperature in both doped and undoped samples. The average grain sizes are very small. This indicates that ZnO films with low crystallinit…
