Bioinspired superhydrophobic surfaces have attracted many industrial and academic interests in recent years. Inspired by unique superhydrophobicity and anisotropic friction properties of snake scale surfaces, this study ...

Density functional theory (DFT) calculations were carried out on hydroxylated and solvated (H&S) Fe substrates. Fe (110) and (111) extended surfaces as well as clusters of 32 and 59 atoms, and a nanoparticle of 80 atoms ...

In this study, we report the formation of laser-induced periodic surface nanometric concentric ring structures on silicon surfaces through single-spot irradiation with orthogonally polarized femtosecond laser double-puls...

Fluid transport on confined systems is a subject of theoretical and technological interest. For instance, remarkable high flow rates have been obtained in carbon nanochannels (CNs) which cannot be predicted by standard m...

Abstract A high-precision evaluation of ultrasonic detection sensitivity for a micro-crack can be restricted by a corroded rough surface when the surface microtopography is of the same order of magnitude as the crack dep...

Illumination of noble metal nanostructures by electromagnetic radiation induces coherent oscillations of conductive electrons on their surfaces. These coherent oscillations of electrons, also known as localized surface p...

Sediment deposits formed mainly under the influence of bottom currents (contourites) are widely used as high-resolution archives for reconstructing past ocean conditions. However, the driving processes of Contourite Depo...

It is well-known that a Fourier optical system can be used to perform specific computing tasks, such as image differentiation, with a superior speed and power consumption in comparison with digital computers, despite bul...
