Application of an array laser–cantilever–magnet measurement sensor incorporated with digital shearography in a Lorentz force particle analyzer
A Lorentz force particle analyzer (LFPA) is a contactless measuring apparatus used to detect inclusions or defects within metallic materials. A laser–cantilever–magnet (LCM) sensor is a reliable metho...
Mangnon–phonon–photon interactions in cubic ferromagnets in the vicinity of orientational phase transition: Retrospective and phenomenological study
This work presents a comprehensive theoretical investigation of magnon–phonon–photon interactions in cubic ferromagnets near orientational phase transitions (OPTs). The study focuses on the interplay...
Light scattering in liquid mixtures as a test of the critical point universality principle
The principle of critical point universality is thought to govern critical phenomena in systems as disparate as ferromagnets, super-fluids, superconductors, and binary liquid mixtures exhibiting a cri...
Testing the validity of Adam–Gibbs equation
The Adam–Gibbs (AG) equation may be one of the most influential models in the study of α-relaxation. In this paper, we derived mathematical relationships governing changes in the potential barrier and...
Fast calculation methods for the magnetic field of particle lattices
With the rise of 3D printing and composite materials, components comprising dispersed magnetic particles have become more interesting due to the possibility to design magnetic elements of any shape wi...
Effect of particle size on acoustic vortex manipulation of Mie particles
An acoustic vortex with orbit angular momentum can manipulate a particle in a single beam and multiple freedom manner, gaining increasing interest in recent years. We studied the performance of acoust...
Computational screening of complex oxides for next-generation thermal barrier coatings
Thermal barrier coatings are crucial for industries like aerospace and energy that rely on high temperatures, shielding metal, ceramic, or composite components from heat damage. Yttria-stabilized zirc...
Modeling the charging effect of the hardmask and silicon substrate during plasma etching in advanced nodes
Profile non-idealities after plasma etching negatively affect the performance of advanced node devices. The charging effect is a well-known mechanism affecting the hardmask and substrate profiles. Unf...
