To relate the internal structure of a volume (crystallite and phase boundaries) to properties (electrical, magnetic, mechanical, thermal), a full 3D reconstruction in combination with in situ testing is desirable.

Crystal-Orientation-Dependent Oxygen Exchange Kinetics on Mixed Conducting Thin-Film Surfaces Investigated by In Situ Studies. [PDF]
The oxygen exchange kinetics and the surface chemistry of epitaxially grown, dense La0.6Sr0.4CoO3−δ (LSC) thin films in three different orientations, (001), (110), and (111), were investigated by means of in situ impedance spectroscopy during pulsed ...

Unwinding of a cholesteric liquid crystal and bidirectional surface anchoring [PDF]
We examine the influence of bidirectional anchoring on the unwinding of a planar cholesteric liquid crystal induced by the application of a magnetic field. We consider a liquid crystal layer confined between two plates with the helical axis perpendicular

A quantitative assessment of nanometric machinability of major polytypes of single crystal silicon carbide [PDF]
The influence of polymorphism on nanometric machinability of single crystal silicon carbide (SiC) has been investigated through molecular dynamics (MD) simulation. The simulation results are compared with silicon as a reference material.

Magnetite Crystal Orientation in Magnetosome Chains [PDF]
One‐dimensional magnetic nanostructures have magnetic properties superior to non‐organized materials due to strong uniaxial shape anisotropy. Magnetosome chains in magnetotactic bacteria represent a biological paradigm of such magnet, where magnetite crystals synthesized in organelles called magnetosomes are arranged into linear chains. Two‐dimensional

Hydrostatic piezoelectric parameters of lead-free 2–0–2 composites with two single-crystal components: Waterfall-like orientation dependences [PDF]
A system of hydrostatic parameters is studied in novel 2–0–2 composites that contain two lead-free piezoelectric single-crystal components. The ferroelectric domain-engineered alkali niobate-tantalate-based single-crystal layer promotes large values of ...

Local stability and a renormalized Newton Method for equilibrium liquid crystal director modeling [PDF]
We consider the nonlinear systems of equations that result from discretizations of a prototype variational model for the equilibrium director field characterizing the orientational properties of a liquid crystal material.

On the Orientation-Induced Crystallization of Polymers [PDF]
In order to understand orientation-induced crystallization of polymers, we introduced an intermolecular interaction between polymer chains based on quantum mechanics. We therefore considered a pair of perfectly extended chains where the intermolecular interaction is assumed to be based on the hydrogen interaction with a single chain.
