Flow in unsaturated porous media or in engineered microfluidic systems is dominated by capillary and viscous forces. Consequently, flow regimes may differ markedly from conventional flows, reflecting strong interfacial influences on small bodies of flowing liquids. In this work, we visualized liquid transport patterns…

We present a simple method for preparing large quantities of micrometer-sized core–shell silica rods, via needle-like akaganéite (β-FeOOH) template particles. The preparation of the akaganéite needles by aging ferric chloride solutions at elevated temperature is explored in order to find improved conditions for the fo…

Highly transparent samarium (Sm3+) doped borophosphate glasses were prepared using the melt-quenching technique. The tunable light emission and wideband near-infrared luminescence properties of Sm3+-doped glasses were investigated systemically. Tuning the Sm3+ concentration and excitation wavelength can generate hues…

Single crystals of 6H–SiC were implanted at room temperature with 4-MeV Au ions to a fluence of 1015 cm−2. Raman spectra showed that full amorphization was achieved. The recrystallization process was studied by micro-Raman spectrometry after isochronal thermal annealing between 700 and 1500°C. The spectra permitted th…

We investigate the electronic structure and magnetism of semi-Heusler alloys CoCrP and CoCrAs using the full-potential linearized augmented plane wave method. The calculations reveal that CoCrP and CoCrAs are half-metallic (HM) ferromagnets with the same magnetic moment of 2.00 μB per formula unit. Both alloys have la…
