Strain, size and composition of InAs Quantum Sticks, embedded in InP, by means of Grazing Incidence X-ray Anomalous Diffraction

A. Letoublon, V. Favre-Nicolin, H. Renevier +5

We have used x-ray anomalous diffraction to extract the x-ray structure factor of InAs quantum stick-like islands, embedded in InP. The average height of the quantum sticks (QSs),…

Intrusion and extrusion of water in hydrophobic mesopores

Jean-Louis Barrat, Benoit Lefevre, Lyderic Bocquet +4

We present experimental and theoretical results on intrusion-extrusion cycles of water in hydrophobic mesoporous materials, characterized by independent cylindrical pores. The intr…

Generalization of the coupled dipole method to periodic structures

Patrick C. Chaumet, Adel Rahmani, Garnett W. Bryant

We present a generalization of the coupled dipole method to the scattering of light by arbitrary periodic structures. This new formulation of the coupled dipole method relies on th…

Selective nanomanipulation using optical forces

Patrick C. Chaumet, Adel Rahmani, Manuel Nieto-Vesperinas

We present a detailed theoretical study of the recent proposal for selective nanomanipulation of nanometric particles above a substrate using near-field optical forces [Chaumet {\i…

Thermal activation of rupture and slow crack growth in a model of homogenous brittle materials

S. Santucci, L. Vanel, A. Guarino +2

Slow crack growth in a model of homogenous brittle elastic material is described as a thermal activation process where stress fluctuations allow to overcome a breaking threshold th…
