A new failure mechanism in thin film by collaborative fracture and delamination: interacting duos of cracks
Joel Marthelot, Jose Bico, Francisco Melo +1
When a thin film moderately adherent to a substrate is subjected to residual stress, the cooperation between fracture and delamination leads to unusual fracture patterns, such as s…
Self-replicating cracks: a collaborative fracture mode in thin films
Joel Marthelot, Benoit Roman, Jose Bico +3
Straight cracks are observed in thin coatings under residual tensile stress, resulting into the classical network pattern observed in china crockery, old paintings or dry mud. Here…
Gain properties of dye-doped polymer thin films
I. Gozhyk, M. Boudreau, H. Rabbani Haghighi +8
Hybrid pumping appears as a promising compromise in order to reach the much coveted goal of an electrically pumped organic laser. In such configuration the organic material is opti…
Signatures of Lévy flights with annealed disorder
Q. Baudouin, R. Pierrat, A. Eloy +4
We present theoretical and experimental results of Lévy flights of light originating from a random walk of photons in a hot atomic vapor. In contrast to systems with quenched disor…
