In the last decades, the femtosecond laser micromachining of glass has attracted a lot of attention due to its three-dimensional manufacturing ability and flexibility both in terms of compatible substrates and modification types. Yet, to fully unravel its ...
Several theories of the glass transition propose that the structural relaxation time tau(alpha) is controlled by a growing static length scale. that is determined by the free energy landscape but not by the local dynamic rules governing its exploration. We ...
The purpose of this study is to investigate the role of filling materials (e.g., quartz sand and kaolin clay) in the interaction between a P-wave and a rock fracture. The specific fracture stiffness reflects the seismic response of a filled fracture, while ...
With the progress made in miniaturizing systems over the last decades, understanding materialsâ behavior at small scales has become a necessity.
In this context, glass behavior has remained largely unknown, partly for technological reasons and partly due ...
Over the last few decades, the application of glass in building construction has extended from small four-side supported windowpanes to areas traditionally reserved for other materials, such as roofs, floors, staircases and full building envelopes. Glass i ...
Diffractive optical elements (DOEs) consist of surface reliefs with dimensions in the micrometer range and nanometer precision. Two technologies dominate: Elements replicated in plastic and directly microfabricated elements in fused silica. Plastic DOEs ar ...
The influence of annealing between the Curie transition and the melting point of solvent cast polyvinylidene fluoride trifluoroethylene copolymer films on the crystalline structure, mechanical and electrical properties, and oxygen permeability is investiga ...
Predicting when phase changes occur in nanoparticles is fundamental for designing the next generation of devices suitable for catalysis, biomedicine, optics, chemical sensing and electronic circuits. The estimate of the temperature at which metallic nanopa ...
Interfacial phase transitions are of fundamental importance for climate, industry, and biological processes. In this work, we observe a hydration mediated surface transition in supercooled oil nanodroplets in aqueous solutions using second harmonic and sum ...
The use of glass material for structural components has drastically increased in the last decade. Among others, a laminated connection is a type of adhesive joint that makes use of foil interlayer adhesive to transfer forces between glass and metal parts. ...
