We use atomic force microscopy-force spectroscopy (AFM-FS) to measure the morphology and mechanical properties of cross-linked polyethylene (PEX-a) pipe. PEX-a pipe is being increasingly used to replace metal pipe for water transport and heating applications, and it is important to understand ageing, degradation and failure mechanisms to ensure long-term reliability. AFM-FS measurements on the...

The development of nanotechnology has brought a great opportunity to study the linear and nonlinear optical properties of plasmonic nanohybrids made of metallic nanoparticles and quantum emitters. Rayleigh scattering is a nonlinear scattering mechanism occurring due to the elastic collision of electromagnetic radiation from bound electrons in atoms or molecules after they have been excited to...

Metal additive manufacturing emerges as a pivotal innovation in modern manufacturing technologies, characterized by its exceptional capability to fabricate complex geometries. This process depends on the critical phase change phenomenon, where metals change between solid and liquid states under the intense heat from lasers. Accurate simulations of these phase changes are essential for...

The field of domain wall electronics is part of a broad effort to engineer novel electronic functionalities in complex oxides via nanoscale inhomogeneities. Conducting ferroelectric domain walls offer the possibility of writeable electronics, for which the conduction channels may be manipulated by external fields or strains. In this talk, I discuss a simple problem, namely how the shape of a...
