Ion and Surfactant Induced Wetting Transition Ion and Surfactant Induced Wetting Transition
The ever-increasing demand for energy in our society calls for more efficient andsustainable recovery of fossil fuels. Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) deals with im-proving the recovery of oil from reservoirs. It encompasses not only the large-scaleengineering enterprise, but also the fundamental understanding and discovery ofthe relevant physicochemical processes. The motivation fo...
متن کاملSemiconducting chalcogenide buffer layer for oxide heteroepitaxy on Si„001..
We report controlled laminar growth of a crystalline transition metal oxide on Si 001 without SiOx or silicide formation by utilizing the chalcogenide semiconductor gallium sesquiselenide Ga2Se3 as a nonreactive buffer layer. Initial nucleation of both pure and Co-doped anatase TiO2 is along Ga2Se3 nanowire structures, coalescing to a flat, multidomain film within two molecular layers. Arsenic-...
متن کاملLayer-by-layer nucleation mechanism for quantum dot formation in strained heteroepitaxy.
We study the spontaneous formation of quantum dots in the form of three-dimensional (3D) islands on facetted surfaces in heteroepitaxy. Island development from fast kinetic Monte Carlo (KMC) simulations at low deposition rates is found to follow a layer-by-layer nucleation pathway characterized by energetics driven continuous lateral expansion interrupted by a sequence of independent two-dimens...
متن کاملPretransitional thinning of a polymer wetting layer
– Mixtures of two immiscible polymers A and B phase-separate into A-rich (α) and B-rich (β) phases. Thin films of such mixtures exhibit a transition from an equilibrium 3-layer structure (substrate/α/β/α/air) to a 2-layer structure (substrate/β/α/air) as the surface energy of the substrate is increased. In this letter we show that as an (equilibrium) precursor to this transition, the thickness ...
متن کاملTemperature-driven motion of a wetting layer.
The wetting layer formed by a phase-separated binary liquid mixture in contact with a glass substrate is observed to have a large nonequilibrium response in thickness to small temperature perturbations. An independent theoretical and physical picture is developed, which also provides a direct means of measuring the forces responsible for wetting and their effect on the dynamics of diffusion-lim...
