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

Predicting Homogeneous Bubble Nucleation in Rhyolite

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2019
Bubble nucleation is the critical first step during magma degassing. The resultant number density of bubbles provides a record of nucleation kinetics and underlying eruptive conditions.

Large scale molecular dynamics simulations of homogeneous nucleation. [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Chemical Physics, 2013
We present results from large-scale molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of homogeneous vapor-to-liquid nucleation. The simulations contain between 1 × 10(9) and 8 × 10(9) Lennard-Jones (LJ) atoms, covering up to 1.2 μs (56 × 10(6) time-steps). They cover

Bubbling the False Vacuum Away [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We investigate the role of nonperturbative, bubble-like inhomogeneities on the decay rate of false-vacuum states in two and three-dimensional scalar field theories.

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 ...

Visualizing kinetic pathways of homogeneous nucleation in colloidal crystallization [PDF]

open access: yesNature Physics, 2013
When a system undergoes a transition from a liquid to a solid phase, it passes through multiple intermediate structures before reaching the final state.

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 ...

Homogeneous SPC/E water nucleation in large molecular dynamics simulations. [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Chemical Physics, 2015
We perform direct large molecular dynamics simulations of homogeneous SPC/E water nucleation, using up to ∼ 4 ⋅ 10(6) molecules. Our large system sizes allow us to measure extremely low and accurate nucleation rates, down to ∼ 10(19) cm(-3) s(-1 ...

Recent Progress in Oxide‐Based Na‐Ion Conductors

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Recent advances in oxide‐based sodium‐ion conductors are reviewed, focusing on β/β″‐alumina, NASICON‐type compounds, and Na5YSi4O12‐type (N5) silicates, together with emerging perovskite and layered oxides. Improvements in ionic conductivity, compositional tuning, and processing are highlighted.

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.
