چکیده

Nanostructured materials are not immune from surface segregation, as can be shown for solid samples made from nanosized BaFelz.2xCoxTix019 barium femte particles and a variety of free clusters. Both theory and experiment provide ample demonstration that very limited dimensions of very small clusters does not necessarily impart stability against surface and grain boundary segregation. In fact, with the larger surface to volume ratio in small clusters and lower average atomic coordination, we anticipate that compositional instabilities in small clusters will readily occur.

Continuum theory of interfacial segregation

Theoretical work in the field of interfacial segregation is mainly focused on the Gibbsian approach that uses the dividing surface construct. In this article a continuum approach to the problem of interfacial segregation in multicomponent hydrostatically compressed alloys is developed and the segregation at homophase and heterophase interfaces is considered on common grounds. The Gibbs adsorpti...

Surface segregation of Ag–Cu–Au trimetallic clusters

Segregation phenomena of Ag–Cu–Au trimetallic clusters with icosahedral structure are investigated by using a Monte Carlo method based on the second-moment approximation of the tight-binding (TB-SMA) potentials. We predict that the Ag atoms segregate to the surface of the Ag–Cu–Au trimetallic icosahedral clusters. The Ag concentrations in the surface layer of the clusters are about 11–29 at.% h...

Subcellular spatial segregation of integrin subtypes by patterned multicomponent surfaces.

While it is well known that individual integrins are critical mediators of cell behavior, recent work has shown that when multiple types of integrins simultaneously engage the ECM, cell functions are enhanced. However, it is not known how integrins spatially coordinate to regulate cell adhesion because no reliable method exists to segregate integrins on the cell membrane. Here, we use a microco...

Mass segregation in young star clusters : can it be detected from the integrated photometric properties ?

We consider the effect of mass segregation on the observable integrated properties of star clusters. The measurable properties depend on a combination of the dynamical age of the cluster and the physical age of the stars in the cluster. To investigate all possible combinations of these two quantities, we propose an analytical model for the mass function of segregated star clusters that agrees w...
