Simulations of Interfacial Phenomena in Soft Condensed Matter and Nanoscience [PDF]
Computation of interfacial free energies between coexisting phases (e.g. saturated vapor coexisting with liquid) is a fundamental problem of classical statistical mechanics: the standard approach (dating back to van der Waals, Ginzburg-Landau, Cahn-Hillard ) is based on the continuation of the free energy of homogeneous states throughout the two phase ...

Soft Condensed Matter (Materia Condensata Soffice)
This article was written for a multi-volume History of Science, and published in Italian translation: Storia della Scienza, Volume IX, La Grande Scienza, pp 645-656 (published by Istituto della Enciclopedia Italiana, Fondata da Giovanni Treccani, 2003). In it, I describe the evolution of soft matter physics as a discipline during the 20th century.

Experimental and Computational Techniques in Soft Condensed Matter Physics [PDF]
Soft condensed matter physics relies on a fundamental understanding at the interface between physics, chemistry, biology, and engineering for a host of materials and circumstances that are related to, but outside, the traditional definition of condensed matter physics.

The separation of Helium gas from natural gas is challenging but highly important. MIL‐116(Ga), a “non‐porous” metal–organic framework is used as a molecular sieve to separate He from CH4. Druse‐like MIL‐116(Ga) particles are integrated into polysulfone mixed matrix membranes.

Optical Control of the Thermal Conductivity in BaTiO3
Light‐driven manipulation of thermal conductivity in archetypal ferroelectric, BaTiO3, offers a novel and effective approach for the dynamical control of the heat flux, with potential applications in thermal management and phonon‐based logic. Abstract Achieving dynamic control over thermal conductivity remains a formidable challenge in condensed matter

Decoding the Structure of Benzodithiophene Polymers for High‐Efficiency Organic Solar Cells
This study reveals a unique solid mesophase in top‐performing benzodithiophene‐based polymers for solar cells, comprising stacked solid‐like and liquid‐like layers. Combining nanoscale fibrillar domains with amorphous regions, it introduces a new structural paradigm.
