Structural Origin of the Two-Step Glass Transition

Xinzhuo Liu, Huaguang Wang, Zexin Zhang +1

The glass transition is a long-standing problem in physics. Identifying the structural origin of the transition may lead to the ultimate solution to the problem. Here, for the firs…

On the distribution of DNA translocation times in solid-state nanopores: an analysis using Schrodinger's first-passage-time theory

Daniel Y. Ling, X. S. Ling

In this short note, a correction is made to the recently proposed solution [1] to a 1D biased diffusion model for linear DNA translocation and a new analysis will be given to the d…

Optical Tweezers as a Micromechanical Tool for Studying Defects in 2D Colloidal Crystals

Sungcheol Kim, Lichao Yu, Stephanie Huang +2

This paper reports on some new results from the analyses of the video microscopy data obtained in a prior experiment on two-dimensional (2D) colloidal crystals. It was reported pre…

3D Spatially Resolved Neutron Diffraction from a Disordered Vortex Lattice

Xi Wang, Helen A. Hanson, Xinsheng Sean Ling +2

The vortex matter in bulk type-II superconductors serves as a prototype system for studying the random pinning problem in condensed matter physics. Since the vortex lattice is embe…

Direct Evidence for Edge-Contaminated Vortex Phase in a Nb Single Crystal using Neutron Diffraction

Helen A. Hanson, Xi Wang, Ivo K. Dimitrov +7

We report the first direct observation of a disordered vortex matter phase existing near the edge of a bulk type-II superconductor Nb using a novel position-sensitive neutron diffr…

Magnetocaloric Studies of the Peak Effect in Nb

N. D. Daniilidis, I. K. Dimitrov, V. F. Mitrovic +2

We report a magnetocaloric study of the peak effect and Bragg glass transition in a Nb single crystal. The thermomagnetic effects due to vortex flow into and out of the sample are…
