Topological comparison of flexible and semiflexible chains in polymer melts with -chains
Maurice P. Schmitt, Sarah Wettermann, Kostas Ch. Daoulas +2
A central paradigm of polymer physics states that chains in melts behave like random walks as intra- and interchain interactions effectively cancel each other out. Likewise, -ch…
Island formation in heteroepitaxial growth
Frederik Munko, Catherine Cruz Luukkonen, Ismael S. S. Carrasco +2
Island formation in strain-free heteroepitaxial deposition of thin films is analyzed using kinetic Monte Carlo simulations of two minimal lattice models and scaling approaches. The…
Convection can enhance the capacitive charging of porous electrodes
Aaron D. Ratschow, Alexander J. Wagner, Mathijs Janssen +1
Charge transport in porous electrodes is foundational for modern energy storage technologies like supercapacitors, fuel cells, and batteries. Supercapacitors in particular rely sol…
In-plane dielectric constant and conductivity of confined water
R. Wang, M. Souilamas, A. Esfandiar +10
Water is essential for almost every aspect of life on our planet and, unsurprisingly, its properties have been studied in great detail. However, disproportionately little remains k…
Smart polymer solution and thermal conductivity: How important is an exact polymer conformation?
Mokter M. Chowdhury, Robinson Cortes-Huerto, Debashish Mukherji
Heat management in devices is a key to their efficiency and longevity. Here, thermal switches (TS) are of great importance because of their ability to transition between different…
The role of precursor coverage in the synthesis and substrate transfer of graphene nanoribbons
Rimah Darawish, Oliver Braun, Klaus Muellen +4
Graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) with atomically precise widths and edge topologies have well-defined band gaps that depend on ribbon dimensions, making them ideal for room-temperature…
