Homogeneous Ice Nucleation Under Shear

open access: yes, 2020
Homogeneous ice nucleation involving a water flow is subject to shear, which may greatly affect the ice nucleation rate. In this work, we investigate the homogeneous ice nucleation rate under shear through molecular dynamics simulations. It is found that

High‐Entropy Alloy Interlayers Toward Advanced Joining for High‐Performance Structural Applications: Current Progress and Emerging Challenges

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
HEA interlayers offer a versatile route for joining high‐performance structural materials. Their compositional and structural design regulates interfacial reactions, suppresses brittle IMCs, and improves metallurgical bonding. Sandwich interlayers further integrate defect healing with precipitation strengthening, enabling improved strength–ductility ...

Sensitivity of Homogeneous Ice Nucleation to Aerosol Perturbations and Its Implications for Aerosol Indirect Effects Through Cirrus Clouds

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2018
The magnitude and sign of anthropogenic aerosol impacts on cirrus clouds through ice nucleation are still very uncertain. In this study, aerosol sensitivity (ηα), defined as the sensitivity of the number concentration (Ni) of ice crystals formed from ...

Parameterization of homogeneous ice nucleation for cloud and climate models based on classical nucleation theory [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2012
A new analytical parameterization of homogeneous ice nucleation is developed based on extended classical nucleation theory including new equations for the critical radii of the ice germs, free energies and nucleation rates as simultaneous functions of ...

Homogeneous nucleation and the Ostwald step rule [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
We compare the pathways for homogeneous nucleation in a number of different systems. In most cases, the simulations show that the nucleation pathways are markedly different from what is assumed in classical nucleation theory.

Swelling‐Programmed Topographical Guidance for Dynamic Spheroid Self‐Assembly via a Mechanochemical Hydrogel Niche

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A swelling‐programmed micropatterned hydrogel guides adherent cells through a controlled transition from cell–matrix anchoring to cadherin‐mediated cell–cell compaction, enabling rapid assembly of high‐viability spheroids with defined size and morphology.

Efficiency of immersion mode ice nucleation on surrogates of mineral dust [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2007
A differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) was used to explore heterogeneous ice nucleation of emulsified aqueous suspensions of two Arizona test dust (ATD) samples with particle diameters of nominally 0–3 and 0–7 μm, respectively ...

Modelling microscopic clusters of sulphuric acid and water relevant to atmospheric nucleation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Classical nucleation theory has been a useful tool for predicting the phenomena of nucleation for the past seventy years. However the model has several limitations, which in some examples give rise to predicted rates that are several orders of magnitude ...

Electrode and Microstructure Dependence of Oxygen Diffusion in Ferroelectric Hafnium Zirconium Oxide Thin Films

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Significant nanoscale oxygen diffusion coefficient variations are measured in ferroelectric hafnium zirconium oxide films with grain boundaries and electrode interfaces exhibiting values 104 times larger than the grain cores. Overall coefficients are 10X larger for films prepared with metal nitride electrodes compared to refractory metals. New insights

Effect of gravity wave temperature fluctuations on homogeneous ice nucleation in the tropical tropopause layer [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2016
The impact of high-frequency fluctuations of temperature on homogeneous nucleation of ice crystals in the vicinity of the tropical tropopause is investigated using a bin microphysics scheme for air parcels.
