Revealing spatially heterogeneous relaxation in a model nanocomposite
Shiwang Cheng, Stephen Mirigian, Jan-Michael Y. Carrillo +4
The detailed nature of spatially heterogeneous dynamics of glycerol-silica nanocomposites is unraveled by combining dielectric spectroscopy with atomistic simulation and statistica…
Slow Relaxation, Spatial Mobility Gradients and Vitrification in Confined Films
Stephen Mirigian, Kenneth S. Schweizer
Two decades of experimental research indicates that spatial confinement of glass-forming molecular and polymeric liquids results in major changes of their slow dynamics beginning a…
Elastically Cooperative Activated Barrier Hopping Theory of Relaxation in Viscous Fluids. II. Thermal Liquids
Stephen Mirigian, Kenneth S. Schweizer
Building on the elastically collective nonlinear Langevin equation theory developed for hard spheres in the preceding paper I, we propose and implement a quasi-universal theory for…
Elastically Cooperative Activated Barrier Hopping Theory of Relaxation in Viscous Fluids. I. General Formulation and Application to Hard Sphere Fluids
Stephen Mirigian, Kenneth S. Schweizer
We generalize the force-level Nonlinear Langevin Equation theory of single particle hopping to include collective effects associated with long range elastic distortion of the liqui…
Unified Theory of Activated Relaxation in Liquids over 14 Decades in Time
Stephen Mirigian, Kenneth S. Schweizer
We formulate a predictive theory at the level of forces of activated relaxation in hard sphere fluids and thermal liquids that covers in a unified manner the apparent Arrhenius, cr…
