Phase changes are central to the world around us. Probably the most familiar example is when ice melts into water or water ...

To do this, they have evolved methods for importing DNA from elsewhere and utilizing it for their own purposes, transformation being one such method. In this article, we will discuss transformation, ...

A course on phase transformations in crystalline solids. Topics will include the thermodynamics of ordered materials: Landau expansions, Bragg-Williams model, antiphase domain boundaries; the kinetics ...

This course will cover a variety of topics associated with the thermodynamics and kinetics of phase transformations in materials. Topics to be covered include the various theories of nucleation, ...

This transformation completely eliminates all the two-coordinate acetylenic carbons from graphyne, yet it preserves the layered structure. The transformation also modifies the band gap of the ...
