The evaporation-induced self-assembly of mixed colloids has been employed to synthesize microspheres of TiO(2)/SiO(2) nanocomposites. Small-angle neutron/X-ray scattering and scanning electron microscopy experiments reveal the hierarchical morphology of the microspheres. Although the internal structure of the microsph…

We report electromigration induced failure on lead-free micro bumps in three-dimensional integrated circuits samples with chip on chip configuration. Compared to flip chip solder joints, micro bumps of chip-on-chip samples exhibit better electromigration resistance and are able to withstand a higher current density. N…

Water adsorption on the (001) surface of pyrophyllite [Al(OH)(Si 2 O 5 )] was investigated using density functional theory (DFT) with dispersion corrections and force field calculations. The DFT calculations show that a water molecule can bind either to one or to two basal oxygen atoms of the surface, with adsorption…

Stresses in the oxide film/metal substrate system are crucial to the reliability of the system at high temperature. Two models for predicting the stress evolution during isothermal oxidation are proposed. The deformation of the system is depicted by the curvature for single surface oxidation. The creep strain of the o…

We analyze theoretically the influence of low-dielectric boundaries on the adsorption of flexible polyelectrolytes onto planar and spherical oppositely charged surfaces in electrolyte solutions. We rationalize to what extent polymer chains are depleted from adsorbing interfaces by repulsive image forces. We employ the…

This article considers the roles of metalloids in two typical Fe-based glass former alloys (Fe78Si9B13 and Fe80P11C9) in liquid state by using ab initio molecular dynamics simulations. It presents that Fe78Si9B13 alloy is mainly composed of B-centered prism-like clusters and bcc-like Fe-Si solid solution, while P-cent…

Polyamide 11/graphene coatings were prepared through a spraying method with as-prepared organophilic graphene. The tribological results showed that the wear life of composite coatings was obviously higher than that of neat Polyamide 11 coating; however, the values of friction coefficients had hardly changed. The optim…

The inclusion of graphene into composite energetic materials to enhance their performance is a new area of interest. Studies have shown that the addition of graphene significantly enhances the thermal transport properties of an energetic composite, but how graphene influences the composite’s ignition sensitivity has n…

The defocused orientation and position imaging (DOPI) and polarization-based in-focus imaging techniques have been widely used for detecting rotational motions with anisotropic gold nanorods (AuNRs) as orientation probes. However, these techniques have a number of significant limitations, such as the greatly reduced s…

Separation of the trivalent actinides from the trivalent lanthanides relevant to used nuclear fuel reprocessing remains still a challenging task. One of the options currently being investigated is the combination of two extraction processes, TRUEX and TALSPEAK. However, the two extractants used in the individual proce…

A thorough periodic DFT/PW91 study of water sorption (0.1 < Θ < 1) on tetragonal ZrO 2 ( P 4 2 / nmc ) nanocrystals was performed by means of the plane-wave periodic DFT calculations complemented by atomistic thermodynamics. All (101), (001), (100), (111), and (110) planes exposed by faceted t -ZrO 2 nanocrystals were…

This study introduces a new acoustic nonlinearity parameter βT. It is shown that βT is associated with the interaction between a longitudinal wave and a shear wave in isotropic elastic solids with quadratic nonlinearity. Experimental measurements are conducted to demonstrate that the collinear wave mixing technique is…

Here, we show analytically that the thermal rectification via evanescent waves is obtained in the parallel semi-infinite bodies of the dielectric-coated silicon carbide and uncoated silicon carbide. The permittivity and the thickness of the dielectric coating are derived for maximizing the thermal rectification. In th…

Fast states at SiO2/SiC interfaces annealed in NO at 1150–1350 °C have been investigated. The response frequency of the interface states was measured by the conductance method with a maximum frequency of 100 MHz. The interface state density was evaluated based on the difference between quasi-static and theoretical cap…

Polyethylene (PE) pipe material may degrade into lower carbon number volatiles quickly during the electrofusion welding process when the welding temperature rises up to more than about 370°C. Meanwhile, PE may also degrade into lower molecular weight (MW) polymer when subject to a lower temperature. As a result, the a…
