Effect of Added Salts on the Interfacial Dynamics of Monovalent Metal Ions and Model Water-Soluble Polymers
Soumik Ghosh, Jack F. Douglas, Francis W. Starr
Traditional theories of electrolyte and polyelectrolyte solutions overlook ion and polymer hydration, yielding an overly idealized perspective of the thermodynamic and dynamic prop…
Computationally Efficient Machine-Learned Model for GST Phase Change Materials via Direct and Indirect Learning
Owen R. Dunton, Tom Arbaugh, Francis W. Starr
Phase change materials such as GeSbTe (GST) are ideal candidates for next-generation, non-volatile, solid-state memory due to the ability to retain binary data in…
Collective Motion in the Interfacial and Interior Regions of Supported Polymer Films and its Relation to Relaxation
Wengang Zhang, Francis W. Starr, Jack F. Douglas
To understand the role of collective motion in the often large changes in interfacial molecular mobility observed in polymer films, we investigate the extent of collective motion i…
Influence of sample preparation on the transformation of low-density to high-density amorphous ice: An explanation based on the Potential Energy Landscape
Nicolas Giovambattista, Francis W. Starr, Peter H. Poole
Experiments and computer simulations of the transformations of amorphous ices display different behavior depending on sample preparation methods, and on the rates of change of temp…
Potential Energy Landscape of the Apparent First-Order Phase Transition between Low-Density and High-Density Amorphous Ice
Nicolas Giovambattista, Francesco Sciortino, Francis W. Starr +1
The potential energy landscape (PEL) formalism is a valuable approach within statistical mechanics for describing supercooled liquids and glasses. Here we use the PEL formalism and…
A Unifying Framework to Quantify the Effects of Substrate Interactions, Stiffness, and Roughness on the Dynamics of Thin Supported Polymer Films
Paul Z. Hanakata, Beatriz A. Pazmiño Betancourt, Jack F. Douglas +1
Changes in the dynamics of supported polymer films in comparison to bulk materials involve a complex convolution of effects, such as substrate interactions, roughness and complianc…
