In magnetically ordered systems the Heisenberg exchange interaction between neighboring spins favors collinear alignment such as that seen in ferromagnets and antiferromagnets. The inclusion of antisymmetric exchange, also known Dzyaloshinskii--Moriya (DMI), promotes an orthogonal arrangement is subject this review. DMI responsible for chiral magnetism, spin-textured skyrmions, magnetoelectric ...

There is much interest in understanding the interfacial properties of carbon nanotubes, particularly at water/oil interfaces. Here, the adsorption of single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) at the water/1,2-dichloroethane (DCE) interface, and the subsequent investigation of the influence of the adsorbed nanotube layer on interfacial ion transfer, is studied by using the voltammetric transfer of t...

Abstract This chapter attempts to provide an account of works that have attempted to characterize protein–protein interaction interfaces, with fractal dimension. However, such characterization of interfaces is not solely dependent upon interface roughness. Without involving the biophysical factors, we will concentrate only on geometric characterization of these interfaces. To be specific, we wi...

the purpose of the present paper is to develop light beam method to measurement of interfacial area in a rectangular gas-liquid bubble column. total interfacial area can be determined in bubble column filled by transparent liquid by light transmission method. according to pervious researches, the fraction of parallel light is function of interfacial area and optical path length that these two p...

by considering the fact that the surface tension of a real fluid arises from a combination of both repulsive and attractive forces between molecules, a new expression for the interfacial tension has been derived from scaled particle theory (spt)  based on the work of cavity formation and the interaction energy between molecules. at the critical temperature, the interfacial tension between coexi...

to describe the rheological behavior of polymer blends using emulsionbased (palierne theory) as well as micromechanical models (coranapproach), two immiscible polymeric blend systems of poly(trimethylene terephthalate) (ptt)/polyamide-12 (pa12) and ptt/polyethylene (pe) having different levels of molecular interactions were investigated as model systems. the role of interfacial interactions, vi...

[1] The interfacial interaction between mineral surfaces and immiscible fluids determines the efficiency of enhanced oil or gas recovery operations as well as our ability to inject and store CO2 in geological formations. Previous studies have shown that the interfacial tension and contact angle in CO2‐water‐mineral systems change noticeably with fluid pressure. We compile previous results and e...

We present the effect of surface attraction on the vapor-liquid equilibria of square well (SW) fluids in slit pores of varying slit width from quasi 3D to 2D regime using molecular simulation methodologies. Four to five distinct linear regimes are found for shift in the critical temperature with inverse slit width, which is more prominent at higher surface fluid interaction strength. On the oth...
