Homogeneous and heterogeneous nucleations in the surface phase transition: Si(111)4 × 1-In

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2015
Homogeneous and heterogeneous nucleations in a reduced-dimensional system undergoing a first-order structural phase transition were examined by using low electron energy diffraction and scanning tunneling microscopy. The high-temperature 4 × 1 phase of a

The Region of Validity of Homogeneous Nucleation Theory [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
We examine the region of validity of Langer's picture of homogeneous nucleation. Our approach is based on a coarse-grained free energy that incorporates the effect of fluctuations with momenta above a scale k.

Effect of cluster scavenging on homogeneous nucleation [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
A closed‐form expression for the effect of cluster scavenging on the rate of homogeneous nucleation of a vapor in the presence of continuum regime particles is obtained by solving the kinetic equation of nucleation by the method of singular perturbation.

Cirrus parameterisation and the role of ice nuclei. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
A parametrization of cirrus clouds formed by homogeneous nucleation is improved so that it can be used more easily in general-circulation models (GCMs) and climate models.

Void Mediated Failure at the Extremes: Spallation in Magnesium and Aluminum

open access: yesMetals, 2022
This paper reviews the role of void nucleation, growth, and coalescence on the spall failure process in light metals. Based on the review of the open literature, the preponderance of evidence show that void nucleation, growth, and coalescence are ...

Technical note: Fundamental aspects of ice nucleation via pore condensation and freezing including Laplace pressure and growth into macroscopic ice [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2020
Pore condensation and freezing (PCF) is an ice nucleation mechanism that explains ice formation at low ice supersaturation. It assumes that liquid water condenses in pores of solid aerosol particles below water saturation, as described by the Kelvin ...

First-order transitions in glasses and melts induced by solid superclusters nucleated and melted by homogeneous nucleation instead of surface melting

open access: yes, 2019
Supercooled liquids give rise, by homogeneous nucleation, to solid superclusters acting as building blocks of glass, ultrastable glass, and glacial glass phases before being crystallized.

Theoretical prediction of the homogeneous ice nucleation rate: disentangling thermodynamics and kinetics

open access: yes, 2018
Estimating the homogeneous ice nucleation rate from undercooled liquid water is at the same time crucial for understanding many important physical phenomena and technological applications, and challenging for both experiments and theory.

Nucleation versus Spinodal decomposition in a first order quark hadron phase transition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
We investigate the scenario of homogeneous nucleation for a first order quark-hadron phase transition in a rapidly expanding background of quark gluon plasma.
