The objective of our study is to predict the flame spread route by the quantity of combustible materials and their placement. In this paper, we examine non-uniform flame spread in open air along a thin combustible solid with randomly distributed square pores of two different sizes (8 x 8 and 4 x 4 mm respectively). Ex…

Abstract We explore charge recombination dynamics at electron donor‐acceptor heterojunctions, formed between a semiconductor polymer (PCDTBT) and a fullerene derivative (PC70BM), by means of combined time‐resolved photoluminescence and transient absorption spectroscopies. Following prompt exciton dissociation across t…

Porous and bioactive silicone biomaterials were developed for soft and cartilage tissue repair. A protocol, using compression molding, salt extraction, and supercritical carbon dioxide treatments, was used to obtain disk-shaped materials with specific pore sizes and morphologies by changing the process conditions. Hig…

We propose an explanation of the superconducting transitions discovered in the heavy-fermion superlattices by Mizukami et al. [Nature Phys. 7, 849 (2011)] in terms of Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless (BKT) transition. We observe that the effective mass mismatch between the heavy-fermion superconductor and the normal me…

The submonolayer growth of NaCl bilayer high-rectangular shaped islands on Ag(111) is investigated at around room temperature by using low temperature scanning tunneling microscopy. The growth at the step edges is preferred. Two kinds of islands are observed. They either grow with their non-polar edge at the step edge…

A rigorous circuit model for the simulation of large-scale photonic integrated circuit (PIC) is proposed and validated. Different from the conventional circuit theory, both guided and radiation fields are taken into consideration in the circuit model. A PIC of arbitrary size and complexity is partitioned into a collec…

Due to the wide range of possible applications, there is a strong current interest in semiconductor nanowires, that began around the start of the millennia. As a result, a number of important new surface science challenges of both fundamental and practical nature have emerged. Surfaces govern important processes for n…

Topological insulators with a time-reversal symmetry-breaking perturbation near the surface present a magnetoelectric response that is quantized when the frequency of the probing fields is much smaller than the surface gap induced by the perturbation. In this work we describe the intrinsic finite-frequency magnetoelec…

The processes underlying crater formation by energetic nanoparticle impact are investigated using molecular dynamics simulations. Both metallic and van-der-Waals-bonded targets are studied. We find a transition from crater formation by melt flow at small impact energies to an evaporation (gas flow) mechanism at higher…

A process for the preparation of 1,1-diamino-2,2-dinitroethene suitable for scale-up was developed. The crucial features to allow scalability and enhance the process safety were the improved synthesis of 2-methoxy-2-methylimidazolidine-4,5-dione and its conversion into 2-hydroxy-2-methylimidazolidine-4,5-dione, which…

We reveal the subdiffusive dynamics of paramagnetic colloids subjected to a two state flashing potential generated by periodic modulation of a magnetic bubble lattice. The particles perform a random walklike motion with antipersistent nature, showing for certain field parameters a crossover from subdiffusive to an enh…
