Three-Phase Coexistence in Colloidal Rod-Plate Mixtures.
Aqueous suspensions of clay particles, such as montmorillonite (MMT) platelets and sepiolite (Sep) rods, tend to form gels at concentrations around 1 vol %. For Sep rods, adsorbing sodium polyacrylate to the surface allows for an isotropic-nematic phase separation to be seen instead. Here, MMT is added to such Sep suspensions, resulting in a complex phase behavior. Across a range of clay concen...
متن کاملEvidence for a topological transition in nematic - to - isotropic phase transition in two dimensions
The nematic-to-isotropic orientational phase transition, or equivalently the RP 2 model, is considered in two dimensions and the question of the nature of the phase transition is addressed. Using powerful conformal techniques adapted to the investigation of critical properties of two-dimensional scale-invariant systems, we report strong evidences for a transition governed by topological defects...
متن کاملNo Hawking-Page phase transition in three dimensions
We investigate whether or not the Hawking-Page phase transition is possible to occur in three dimensions. Starting with the simplest class of LanczosLovelock action, thermodynamic behavior of all AdS-type black holes without charge falls into two classes: Schwarzschild-AdS black holes in even dimensions and Chern-Simons black holes in odd dimensions. The former class can provide the Hawking-Pag...
متن کاملQuantum phase transitions of metals in two spatial dimensions. I. Ising-nematic order
We present a renormalization-group theory for the onset of Ising-nematic order in a Fermi liquid in two spatial dimensions. This is a quantum phase transition, driven by electron interactions, which spontaneously reduces the point-group symmetry from square to rectangular. The critical point is described by an infinite set of 2+1-dimensional local field theories, labeled by points on the Fermi ...
متن کاملFresnel particle tracing in three dimensions using diffraction phase microscopy.
We have developed a novel experimental technique for tracking small particles in three dimensions with nanometer accuracy. The longitudinal positioning of a micrometer-sized particle is determined by using the Fresnel approximation to describe the transverse distribution of the wavefront that originated in the particle. The method utilizes the high-sensitivity quantitative phase imaging capabil...
