Monte Carlo simulations are used to systematically investigate the effects of structural topology on the thermodynamics of n-alkanes adsorbed at Bronsted protons in zeolites having one-dimensional channel systems. In zeolites without cages, the enthalpy an ...
A commercially available optical fiber coated with 8 µm-thickness polyimide is used for measuring the acoustic impedance of the surrounding liquid materials, by means of the generation and detection of forward stimulated Brillouin scattering (FSBS). ...
We demonstrated 5 mm-thick bulk gallium nitride (GaN) with nearly perfect crystal quality. To achieve this, intentional etch pit formation by in situ dry HCl etching and ex situ wet etching in H3PO4 solution was employed on freestanding GaN templates follo ...
The invention relates to devices, systems and methods exploiting capacitive means for monitoring and analysing teeth-related parameters in a subject, such as the dental occlusion profile and/or the load/force applied upon clenching. The device comprises a ...
The influence of Fano resonances on the nonlinear response of hybrid plasmonic nanostructures, i.e., nanoantennas loaded with a nonlinear optical material, is theoretically investigated using the combination of a surface integral equation method and an ana ...
The electroluminescence of organic films is the central aspect in organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) and widely used in current display technology. However, its spatial variation on the molecular scale is essentially unexplored. Here, we address this is ...
Spurred on by the invention of the blue light-emitting diode ( LED) a quarter of a century ago, the LED industry has advanced dramatically and has revolutionized the signaling/signage, mobile and flat panel display, and more recently, general lighting mark ...
In this paper, we study the three-dimensional Ericksen-Leslie equations for the nematodynamics of liquid crystals. We prove short time existence and uniqueness of strong solutions for the initial value problem for the periodic case and in bounded domains w ...
A 3-dimensional phase-field model is implemented to simulate the grain evolution in the final stage of liquid-phase sintering. The model considers a liquid phase and a polycrystalline solid phase. Results for varying ratios of the solid-solid interface ene ...
ZnO is commonly observed and assumed to crystallize fully in a wurtzite structure. Indeed, While polytypism between a wurtzite and a zinc blende phase is often seen in some II-VI compounds, it has only rarely been observed in ZnO. Here, by means of automat ...
