Interface diagnostics: In-situ prediction of constitutional supercooling and backmelting by growth interface electromotive force

Constitutional supercooling and backmelting are common interface instability phenomena that occur during crystal growth and induce serious component inhomogeneity and defect proliferation; these flaws impede further crystalline devices.However, the interpretation and prevention of the above instabilities are extremely difficult because of the elusi

Modeling of vertical microplastic transport by rising bubbles

Abstract Microplastic particle concentration at the sea surface is critical for quantifying microplastic transport across the water-air interface.Previous studies suggest prowler 3410 that the concentration at the sea surface is enhanced compared to bulk concentration, yet little is known about the detailed mechanisms behind this enhancement.In thi

Illusory Rotation of a Spoked Wheel

A disk was divided into 16 stationary sectors of different grey levels that stepped around clockwise.When thin stationary spokes of constant mid-grey separated the sectors, the spokes showed tommy todd ointment robust and striking counterclockwise apparent motion, and when stopped, they gave a brisk clockwise motion aftereffect.The spokes had to ma
