Dynamics of Nanoscale Phase Decomposition in Laser Ablation
Yanwen Sun, Chaobo Chen, Thies J. Albert +19
Femtosecond laser ablation is a process that bears both fundamental physics interest and has wide industrial applications. For decades, the lack of probes on the relevant time and…
Origins of suppressed self-diffusion of nanoscale constituents of a complex liquid
Christian P. N. Tanner, Vivian R. K. Wall, Mumtaz Gababa +25
Understanding and ultimately controlling the transformations and properties of nanoscale systems, from proteins to synthetic nanomaterial assemblies, is limited by the inability to…
Enhancing nanoscale charged colloid crystallization near a metastable liquid binodal
Christian P. N. Tanner, Vivian R. K. Wall, Joshua Portner +17
Bottom-up assembly of nanocrystals (NCs) into ordered arrays, or superlattices (SLs), is a promising route to design materials with new functionalities, but the degree of control o…
Observation of polarization density waves in SrTiO3
Gal Orenstein, Viktor Krapivin, Yijing Huang +23
The nature of the "failed" ferroelectric transition in SrTiO3 has been a long-standing puzzle in condensed matter physics. A compelling explanation is the competition between ferro…
In situ coherent X-ray scattering reveals polycrystalline structure and discrete annealing events in strongly-coupled nanocrystal superlattices
Matthew J. Hurley, Christian P. N. Tanner, Joshua Portner +13
Solution-phase bottom up self-assembly of nanocrystals into superstructures such as ordered superlattices is an attractive strategy to generate functional materials of increasing c…
Ultrafast lattice disordering can be accelerated by electronic collisional forces
Gilberto A. de la Pena Munoz, Alfredo A. Correa, Shan Yang +11
In the prevalent picture of ultrafast structural phase transitions, the atomic motion occurs in a slowly varying potential energy surface determined adiabatically by the fast elect…
