Quantum phase transitions represent fundamental changes between distinct quantum states of matter, driven not by thermal fluctuations but by quantum fluctuations at zero temperature. These transitions ...
The dynamics of aggregation and phase transitions in granular systems represent a multifaceted area of research that bridges statistical physics, materials science and engineering. At its core, ...
Atomistic phase transition dynamics of In₂Se₃ semiconductor triggered by electron beam illumination or heat is controlled and captured by in-situ STEM. The newly formed non-layered phase exhibits 6H ...
Two research teams led by Academician GUO Guangcan, headed by Prof. SHI Baosen and Prof. DING Dongsheng from University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) of Chinese Academy of Science, with ...
Seismicity decreases with depth because elevated confining pressure prevents frictional sliding of faults. However, ...
