The physics of alloy solidification during additive manufacturing (AM) in methods such as
laser powder bed fusion (LPBF), electron beam powder bed fusion (EPBF), and laser …

The use of a solution process to grow perovskite thin films allows to extend the material
processability. It is known that the physicochemical properties of the perovskite material can …

Since Bridgman's discovery of five solid water (H2O) ice phases in 1912, studies on the
extraordinary polymorphism of H2O have documented more than seventeen crystalline and …

Automated analyses of the outcome of a simulation have been an important part of atomistic
modeling since the early days, addressing the need of linking the behavior of individual …

Melting and solidification of pure metals and alloys are important research areas due to their
practical applications, where the study of dynamic evolution of the interface offers a …

MXene, as a novel 2D crystal material, possessing tunable bandgap, low optical attenuation
and broadband nonlinear optical responses that may promote the fabrications of advanced …

Metal additive manufacturing (MAM) technology is now changing the pattern of the high-end
manufacturing industry, among which microstructure simulation gradually shows its …

It is believed that the slow liquid diffusion and geometric frustration brought by a rapid, deep
quench inhibit fast crystallization and promote vitrification. Here we report fast crystal growth …

We review how phase-field models contributed to the understanding of various aspects of
crystal nucleation, including homogeneous and heterogeneous processes, and their role in …

Pulsed laser melting in liquid (PLML) has been developed to fabricate crystalline spherical
submicrometer particles (SMPs) by irradiating lasers onto raw particles dispersed in liquid …
