Surface-directed spinodal decomposition in binary fluid mixtures.
We consider the phase separation of binary fluids in contact with a surface, which is preferentially wetted by one of the components of the mixture. We review the results available for this problem and present numerical results obtained using a mesoscopic level simulation technique for the three-dimensional problem.
متن کاملMicrostructure and optical properties of Pr3+-doped hafnium silicate films
In this study, we report on the evolution of the microstructure and photoluminescence properties of Pr3+-doped hafnium silicate thin films as a function of annealing temperature (TA). The composition and microstructure of the films were characterized by means of Rutherford backscattering spectrometry, spectroscopic ellipsometry, Fourier transform infrared absorption, and X-ray diffraction, whil...
متن کاملUnconventional spinodal surface fluctuations on polymer films.
We study the temporal growth pattern of surface fluctuations on a series of spinodally unstable polymer films where the instability can be adjusted with the film thickness, h0. For the most unstable film studied (whose /(h0 - h(sp))/h(sp)/ = 0.988; h(sp) is the thickness where the second derivative of the interfacial potential of the film equals zero), the growth rate function of the surface mo...
متن کاملUltra-thin silicate films on metals.
Silica is one of the key materials in many modern technological applications. 'Surface science' approach for understanding surface chemistry on silica-based materials, on the one hand, and further miniaturization of new generation electronic devices, on the other, all these face the necessity of rational design of the ultrathin silica films on electrically conductive substrates. The review upda...
متن کاملComputer simulation of spinodal decomposition in constrained films
The morphological evolution during spinodal decomposition of a binary alloy thin film elastically constrained by a substrate is studied. Elastic solutions, derived for elastically anisotropic thin films subject to the mixed stress-free and constraint boundary conditions, are employed in a three-dimensional phase-field model. The Cahn–Hilliard diffusion equation for a thin film boundary conditio...
