We consider the nonequilibrium thermodynamics of glasses from various perspectives. For the commonly used equilibriumlike approach based on Gibbs' fundamental form with an additional pair of conjugate variables, we discuss possible choices of the independent out-of-equilibrium variable and we illustrate some implicati…

Molecular-scale understanding and manipulation of the wetting behavior of water on solids remains a fundamental challenge. Using diamond as a model system, we show that the naturally hydrophobic behavior of a hydrogen-terminated C(111) surface can be manipulated by replacing the H termination with a monolayer of adsor…

We have investigated the effective magnetic anisotropy in CVD-grown epitaxial $\mathrm{Cr}{\mathrm{O}}_{2}$ thin films and ${\mathrm{Cr}}_{2}{\mathrm{O}}_{3}∕\mathrm{Cr}{\mathrm{O}}_{2}$ bilayers using resonant radio-frequency transverse susceptibility (TS). While $\mathrm{Cr}{\mathrm{O}}_{2}$ is a highly spin polariz…

A detailed study of the formation of neutral oxygen vacancies in monoclinic tungsten oxide (WO 3 ) is performed within the framework of the self-consistent first-principles SIESTA method. This work reveals that the neutral oxygen vacancies are anisotropic with a strong correlation to the structural anisotropy of the W…

We analyse the symmetries and the self-consistent perturbative approaches of dynamical field theories for glass-forming liquids. In particular, we focus on the time-reversal symmetry, which is crucial to obtain fluctuation–dissipation relations (FDRs). Previous field theoretical treatment violated this symmetry, where…

In colloidal suspensions, at low volume fraction and temperature, dynamical arrest occurs via the growth of elongated structures that aggregate to form a connected network at gelation. Here we show that, in the region of parameter space where gelation occurs, the stable thermodynamical phase is a crystalline columnar…
