Flash Melting Amorphous Ice

Marcel Drabbels, Ulrich Lorenz, Constantin Richard Krüger, Nathan Junior Mowry, Gabriele Bongiovanni

Water can be vitrified if it is cooled at high rates, which makes it possible to outrun crystallization in so-called no man’s land, a range of deeply supercooled temperatures where water crystallizes rapidly. Here, we study the reverse process in pure wate ...

Shaped Laser Pulses for Microsecond Time-Resolved Cryo-EM: Outrunning Crystallization during Flash Melting

Marcel Drabbels, Constantin Richard Krüger, Nathan Junior Mowry

Water vitrifies if cooled at rates above 3 × 105 K/s. In contrast, when the resulting amorphous ice is flash heated, crystallization occurs even at a more than 10 times higher heating rate, as we have recently shown. This may present an issue for microseco ...

Embedded Microchannel Cooling for Monolithically-integrated GaN Half-bridge ICs

Elison de Nazareth Matioli, Remco Franciscus Peter van Erp, Luca Nela, Palliyage Srilak Nirmana Perera

Efficient and compact power conversion is a key requirement to achieve sustainable electrification of our society. GaN-based power devices offer major benefits compared to their silicon counterparts in terms of efficiency and integration but suffer from se ...

District heating and cooling systems to integrate renewable energy in urban areas

Francesca Belfiore

The building sector plays a crucial role in the ongoing energy transition due to its significant share of global energy consumption and carbon dioxide emissions, especially when combined with the estimation that 70% of the world's population will be living ...

Operando X-ray diffraction during laser 3D printing: from machine design to experiments and computer simulations

Samy Hocine

The importance of additive manufacturing, also known as 3D printing, has grown exponentially in the recent years thanks to its high flexibility to manufacture intricate parts. This process can be divided into many different sub-categories, depending on the ...
