Atomistic Monte Carlo Simulations on the Formation of Carbonaceous Mesophase in Large Ensembles of Polyaromatic Hydrocarbons

Detection and tracking of defects in the gyroid mesophase

Certain systems, such as amphiphile solutions or diblock copolymer melts, may assemble into structures called “mesophases”, with properties intermediate between those of a solid and a liquid. These mesophases can be of very regular structure, but may contain defects and grain boundaries. Different visualization techniques such as volume rendering or isosurfacing of fluid density distributions a...

Magnetic properties of (BEDT-TTF)(ClMeTCNQ) studied by ESR under pressure: a neutral-ionic crossover and thermoinduced mesophase.

The neutral-ionic (NI) phase transition in (BEDT-TTF)(ClMeTCNQ) is studied with ESR under pressure to tune the transition temperature. Broad peak structures observed in the spin susceptibility around T(NI) are analyzed with the assumption of a spin-Peierls gap of 1100 K, which demonstrates the continuous evolution of ionic domain fraction through T(NI) over the extent T(W) proportional, variant...

Mesophase behaviour of polyhedral particles.

Translational and orientational excluded-volume fields encoded in particles with anisotropic shapes can lead to purely entropy-driven assembly of morphologies with specific order and symmetry. To elucidate this complex correlation, we carried out detailed Monte Carlo simulations of six convex space-filling polyhedrons, namely, truncated octahedrons, rhombic dodecahedrons, hexagonal prisms, cube...

extremal region detection guided by maxima of gradient magnitude

a problem of computer vision applications is to detect regions of interest under dif- ferent imaging conditions. the state-of-the-art maximally stable extremal regions (mser) detects affine covariant regions by applying all possible thresholds on the input image, and through three main steps including: 1) making a component tree of extremal regions’ evolution (enumeration), 2) obtaining region ...
