High-Reflection Coatings for Gravitational-Wave Detectors: State of The Art and Future Developments

Alex Amato, Gianpietro Cagnoli, Maurizio Canepa +10

We report on the optical, mechanical and structural characterization of the sputtered coating materials of Advanced LIGO, Advanced Virgo and KAGRA gravitational-waves detectors. We…

Shrinking of Rapidly Evaporating Water Microdroplets Reveals their Extreme Supercooling

Claudia Goy, Marco A. C. Potenza, Sebastian Dedera +13

The fast evaporative cooling of micrometer-sized water droplets in vacuum offers the appealing possibility to investigate supercooled water - below the melting point but still a li…

Critical angle for interfacial phonon scattering: Results from ab initio lattice dynamics calculations

Ali Alkurdi, Stéphane Pailhès, Samy Merabia

Thermal boundary resistance is a critical quantity that controls heat transfer at the nanoscale, which is primarily related to interfacial phonon scattering. Here, we combine latti…

What controls thermo-osmosis? Molecular simulations show the critical role of interfacial hydrodynamics

Li Fu, Samy Merabia, Laurent Joly

Thermo-osmotic and related thermo-phoretic phenomena can be found in many situations from biology to colloid science, but the underlying molecular mechanisms remain largely unexplo…

Absence of confinement in (SrTiO3)/(SrTi0:8Nb0:2O3) superlattices

G. Bouzerar, S. Thébaud, R. Bouzerar +2

The reduction of dimensionality is an efficient pathway to boost the performances of thermoelectric materials, it leads to the quantum confinement of the carriers and thus to large…

Communication: Truncated non-bonded potentials can yield unphysical behavior in molecular dynamics simulations of interfaces

Martin Fitzner, Laurent Joly, Ming Ma +3

Non-bonded potentials are included in most force fields and therefore widely used in classical molecular dynamics simulations of materials and interfacial phenomena. It is commonpl…
