Squeezout phenomena and boundary layer formation of a model ionic liquid under confinement and charging
R. Capozza, A. Vanossi, A. Benassi +1
Electrical charging of parallel plates confining a model ionic liquid down to nanoscale distances yields a variety of charge-induced changes in the structural features of the confi…
Does Rotational Melting Make Molecular Crystal Surfaces More Slippery?
Andrea Benassi, Andrea Vanossi, Carlo A. Pignedoli +2
The surface of a crystal made of roughly spherical molecules exposes, above its bulk rotational phase transition at T= T, a carpet of freely rotating molecules, possibly functi…
Microscale Motion Control Through Ferromagnetic Films
Andrea Benassi, Johannes Schwenk, Miguel A. Marioni +2
Actuation and control of motion in micro-mechanical systems are technological challenges, since they are accompanied by mechanical friction and wear, principal and well known sourc…
Role of interface coupling inhomogeneity in domain evolution in exchange bias
Andrea Benassi, Miguel A. Marioni, Daniele Passerone +1
Models of exchange-bias in thin films have been able to describe various aspects of this technologically relevant effect. Through appropriate choices of free parameters the modelle…
Dynamics of mobile interacting ferromagnetic films: theory and numerical implementation
Andrea Benassi
Coating two nearby bodies with thin ferromagnetic films one obtains, below the Curie temperature, two interacting sets of magnetic domains. The dynamical properties of the bodies i…
