Evolution of the Morphology Near Triple-Phase Boundaries in Ni–Yttria Stabilized Zirconia Electrodes Upon Cathodic Polarization

Jan Van Herle, Marco Cantoni, Arata Nakajo, Priscilla Caliandro, Guillaume Jeanmonod, Giorgio Rinaldi, Lucie Navratilova

Microstructural changes in Ni–yttria stabilized zirconia (YSZ) near the YSZ electrolyte were examined by three-dimensional (3D) electron microscopy after electrolysis and fuel cell operation up to 10,700 h and 15,000 h, respectively. The depletion of Ni an ...

The Fluctuation Dissipation Theorem as a Diagnosis and Cure for Zero-Point Energy Leakage in Quantum Thermal Bath Simulations

Sara Bonella

Quantum thermal bath (QTB) simulations reproduce statistical nuclear quantum effects via a Langevin equation with a colored random force. Although this approach has proven efficient for a variety of chemical and condensed-matter problems, the QTB, as many ...

Characterization of local morphology and availability of triple-phase boundaries in solid oxide cell electrodes

Jan Van Herle, Marco Cantoni, Arata Nakajo, Pierre Burdet, Giorgio Rinaldi

The performance of solid oxide cells is known to be dependent upon the density of three phase boundaries (TPB), but the potential for improving their effective electrocatalytic activity by morphological adjustments is imprecisely known. A spilling algorith ...

Predicting homogeneous nucleation rate from atomistic simulations

Bingqing Cheng

Predictive modelling and quantitative understanding of nucleation is essential for predicting phase transformation processes in nature and precisely controlling material synthesis and processing. Atomistic modeling is a powerful tool for capturing the dyna ...

A phase-change memory model for neuromorphic computing

Irem Boybat Kara, Abu Sebastian

Phase-change memory (PCM) is an emerging non-volatile memory technology that is based on the reversible and rapid phase transition between the amorphous and crystalline phases of certain phase-change materials. The ability to alter the conductance levels i ...

Full Phase Diagram of Active Brownian Disks: From Melting to Motility-Induced Phase Separation

Ignacio Pagonabarraga Mora, Pasquale Digregorio

We establish the complete phase diagram of self-propelled hard disks in two spatial dimensions from the analysis of the equation of state and the statistics of local order parameters. The equilibrium melting scenario is maintained at small activities, with ...

Van der Waals MoS2/VO2 heterostructure junction with tunable rectifier behavior and efficient photoresponse

Olivier Martin, Mihai Adrian Ionescu, Arnaud Magrez, Andreas Schueler, Igor Stolichnov, Anna Krammer, Emanuele Andrea Casu, Chen Yan, Teodor Rosca, Nicolò Oliva

Junctions between n-type semiconductors of different electron affinity show rectification if the junction is abrupt enough. With the advent of 2D materials, we are able to realize thin van der Waals (vdW) heterostructures based on a large diversity of mate ...
