Interplay of Crystallization and Amorphous Spinodal Decomposition During Thermal Annealing of Organic Photoactive Layers. [PDF]
Adv Sci (Weinh)Phase‐Field simulations are carried out to elucidate nanomorphology formation mechanisms in organic photoactive layers under thermal annealing. The predicted bulk heterojunction structures are in excellent agreement with Scanning Electron Microscopy measurements.

Exploration of spinodal decomposition in multi-principal element alloys (MPEAs) using CALPHAD modeling [PDF]
Scripta Materialia, 2021 Researchers attributed the orderly arranged nanoscale phases observed in many multi-principal element alloys (MPEAs) to spinodal/spinodal-mediated phase transformation pathways.

Significantly fast spinodal decomposition and inhomogeneous nanoscale martensitic transformation in Ti–Nb–O alloys [PDF]
MATEC Web of Conferences, 2020 The β phase spinodal decomposition during continuous cooling in Ti‒Nb‒O alloys is investigated by the phase-field method. Addition of only a few at.%O to Ti‒23Nb (at.%) alloy remarkably increases the driving force of the β phase spinodal decomposition ...

Quantum spinodal decomposition [PDF]
Physical Review E, 1993 We study the process of spinodal decomposition in a scalar quantum field theory that is quenched from an equilibrium disordered initial state at $T_i > T_f$ to a final state at $T_f \approx 0$. The process of formation and growth of correlated domains is studied in a Hartree approximation.

Microstructure change of duplex stainless steels after thermal aging and electron beam irradiation
Nuclear Materials and Energy, 2018 Duplex stainless steel has been used as a structural material for light water reactors. It is well known that the thermal aging during operation causes spinodal decomposition to Cr-rich (α') phase and Fe-rich (α) phase in the ferrite phase, resulting in ...

Beyond Solid Solution High‐Entropy Alloys: Tailoring Magnetic Properties via Spinodal Decomposition
Advanced Functional Materials, 2020 Since its first emergence in 2004, the high‐entropy alloy (HEA) concept has aimed at stabilizing single‐ or dual‐phase multi‐element solid solutions through high mixing entropy.
