This thesis aims to find, for the first time, a direct relation between the size and morphology of small metallic nanostructures (gold in this case) supported on a metal-oxide surface to their catalytic activity. In this perspective, three main topics have ...
The present paper proposes a Monte Carlo model to simulate the evolution of the microstructure during liquid phase sintering. The model mainly assumes that the system temperature is constant and that the composition of the liquid phase is completely homoge ...
Motivated by the current interest in the quantum dimer model on the triangular lattice, we investigate the phase diagram of the closely related fully frustrated transverse-field Ising model on the honeycomb lattice using classical and semiclassical approxi ...
The contribution of the solvation energies to the assembly of polynuclear helicates reduces the free energy of intermetallic repulsion, DEMM, in condensed phase to such an extent that stable D3-symmetrical tetranuclear lanthanide-containing triplestranded ...
Quantum phase transitions are often embodied by the critical behavior of purely quantum quantities such as entanglement or quantum fluctuations. In critical regions, we underline a general scaling relation between the entanglement entropy and one of the mo ...
The spin- and charge-density-wave order parameters of the itinerant antiferromagnet chromium are directly measured with nonresonant x-ray diffraction as the system is driven toward its quantum critical point with high pressure using a diamond anvil cell. T ...
The present paper describes what happens at the surface of a crystal as its temperature steadily increases from zero Kelvin close to the bulk melting temperature. We treat thermal motion, such as the diffusion of individual adatoms establishing mass transp ...
The guiding properties of individual rotational states of deuterated ammonia inside an electrostatic hexapole guide are presented. The guide is combined with resonance enhanced multiphoton ionization detection to assess the guiding probabilities and veloci ...
Phase transitions to quantum condensed phases - such as Bose - Einstein condensation (BEC), superfluidity, and superconductivity - have long fascinated scientists, as they bring pure quantum effects to a macroscopic scale. BEC has, for example, famously be ...
A general method for the direct evaluation of the temperature dependence of the quantum-mechanical reaction rate constant in many-dimensional systems is described. The method is based on the quantum instanton approximation for the rate constant, thermodyna ...
