Pseudogap phase of cuprate superconductors confined by Fermi surface topology. [PDF]
Nat Commun, 2017 The properties of cuprate high-temperature superconductors are largely shaped by competing phases whose nature is often a mystery. Chiefly among them is the pseudogap phase, which sets in at a doping p* that is material-dependent.

Surface topology affects wetting behavior of Bacillus subtilis biofilms. [PDF]
NPJ Biofilms Microbiomes, 2017 The colonization of surfaces by bacterial biofilms constitutes a huge problem in healthcare and industry. When attempting biofilm inactivation or removal, it is crucial to sufficiently wet the biofilm surface with antibacterial agents; however, certain ...

Stiffness and surface topology of silicone implants competitively mediate inflammatory responses of macrophages and foreign body response [PDF]
Materials Today BioAdverse inflammatory responses, dominated by macrophages, that are induced by physical cues of silicone implants can heavily damage the life quality of patients via causing fibrosis and device failure. As stiffness and surface topology affect macrophages

Pseudogap and Fermi-Surface Topology in the Two-Dimensional Hubbard Model [PDF]
Physical Review X, 2018 One of the distinctive features of hole-doped cuprate superconductors is the onset of a “pseudogap” below a temperature T^{*}. Recent experiments suggest that there may be a connection between the existence of the pseudogap and the topology of the Fermi ...

Latent instabilities in metallic LaNiO3 films by strain control of Fermi-surface topology. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2015 Strain control is one of the most promising avenues to search for new emergent phenomena in transition-metal-oxide films. Here, we investigate the strain-induced changes of electronic structures in strongly correlated LaNiO3 (LNO) films, using angle ...

Investigating surface topology and cyclic-RGD peptide functionalization on vascular endothelialization. [PDF]
J Biomed Mater Res A, 2014 The advantages of endothelialization of a stent surface in comparison with the bare metal and drug-eluting stents used today include reduced late-stent restenosis and in-stent thrombosis.

Meshing skin surfaces with certified topology [PDF]
Computational Geometry, 2006 AbstractSkin surfaces are used for the visualization of molecules. They form a class of tangent continuous surfaces defined in terms of a set of balls (the atoms of the molecule) and a shrink factor. More recently, skin surfaces have been used for approximation purposes.We present an algorithm that approximates a skin surface with a topologically ...

Vibration-Assisted Ball Burnishing
Encyclopedia, 2021 Vibration-Assisted Ball Burnishing is a finishing processed based on plastic deformation by means of a preloaded ball on a certain surface that rolls over it following a certain trajectory previously programmed while vibrating vertically. The dynamics of
