Towards Relating Fragile-To-Strong Transition to Fragile Glass

Chin-Yuan Ong, Chun-Shing Lee, Xin-Yuan Gao +4

Glass formers are in general classified as strong or fragile depending on whether their relaxation rates follow Arrhenius or super-Arrhenius temperature dependence. There are howev…

Kauzmann Paradox: a crossover due to diminishing local excitations

Xin-Yuan Gao, Chin-Yuan Ong, Chun-Shing Lee +3

The configurational entropy of supercooled liquids extrapolates to zero at the Kauzmann temperature, causing a crisis called the Kauzmann paradox. Here, using a class of multicompo…

Hydrodynamic effects on the energy transfer from dipoles to metal slab

Daniel Brown, Hai-Yao Deng

A systematic study of nonlocal and size effects on the energy transfer of a dipole (e.g. a molecule or a quantum dot) induced by the proximity of a metal slab is presented. Nonloca…

A resolution of the problem of additional boundary conditions

Hai-Yao Deng, Egor A. Muljarov

Maxwell's boundary conditions (MBCs) were long known insufficient to determine the optical responses of spatially dispersive medium. Supplementing MBCs with additional boundary con…

Josephson junctions as nanoelectromechanical Bloch oscillators

T. McDermott, E. Mariani, H. Deng

Bloch oscillations were predicted and observed long ago in Josephson junctions, which are thin insulating or conducting layers bridging two superconductors. Here we forward a schem…

On probable lossless surface plasma waves: a reply to criticisms

Hai-Yao Deng

In a recent preprint, arXiv 2005.03716v1, G. Wegner and C. Henkel criticized my work on the possibility of lossless surface plasma waves. Here I refute all of their criticisms.
