Nucleation and phase transition of decagonal quasicrystals
Tiejun Zhou, Lei Zhang, Pingwen Zhang +2
In this work, we study the nucleation of quasicrystals from liquid or periodic crystals by developing an efficient order-order phase transition algorithm, namely the nullspace-pres…

Defect patterns of two-dimensional nematic liquid crystals in confinement
Xiaomei Yao, Lei Zhang, Jeff Z. Y. Chen
A two-dimensional or quasi-two-dimensional nematic liquid crystal refers to a surface confined system. When such a system is further confined by external line boundaries or exclude…
