Thin Si films on SiO2 that are completely melted by pulsed laser irradiation cool rapidly and eventually solidify via nucleation and growth of solids. It has been observed that a variety of solidified microstructures can be obtained, depending primarily (but not exclusively) on the degree of supercooling achieved prior to the onset of nucleation. This paper focuses on investigating one particular and unusual polycrystalline microstructure that consists of “flowerlike” grains, the interiors of which can be described as being made up of two distinct regions: (1) an extremely defective core region consisting of fine-grained material, and (2) an outer region consisting of relatively defect-free crystal “petals” that radiate outwards. After considering the microstructural details and experimental behavior of the microstructure, we have formulated a growth-based physical model to account for the formation of the microstructure. The model is found to be also capable of accounting for other complex and unusual microstructures obtained via nucleation and growth in the complete melting regime.

The densest local packings of N three-dimensional identical nonoverlapping spheres within a radius Rmin(N) of a fixed central sphere of the same size are obtained for selected values of N up to N=1054. In the predecessor to this paper [A. B. Hopkins, F. H. Stillinger, and S. Torquato, Phys. Rev. E 81, 041305 (2010)], we described our method for finding the putative densest packings of N spheres in d-dimensional Euclidean space Rd and presented those packings in R2 for values of N up to N=348. Here we analyze the properties and characteristics of the densest local packings in R3 and employ knowledge of the Rmin(N), using methods applicable in any d, to construct both a realizability condition for pair correlation functions of sphere packings and an upper bound on the maximal density of infinite sphere packings. In R3, we find wide variability in the densest local packings, including a multitude of packing symmetries such as perfect tetrahedral and imperfect icosahedral symmetry. We compare the densest local packings of N spheres near a central sphere to minimal-energy configurations of N+1 points interacting with short-range repulsive and long-range attractive pair potentials, e.g., 12–6 Lennard-Jones, and find that they are in general completely different, a result that has possible implications for nucleation theory. We also compare the densest local packings to finite subsets of stacking variants of the densest infinite packings in R3 (the Barlow packings) and find that the densest local packings are almost always most similar as measured by a similarity metric, to the subsets of Barlow packings with the smallest number of coordination shells measured about a single central sphere, e.g., a subset of the fcc Barlow packing. Additionally, we observe that the densest local packings are dominated by the dense arrangement of spheres with centers at distance Rmin(N). In particular, we find two “maracas” packings at N=77 and N=93, each consisting of a few unjammed sphere

This paper demonstrates that Sequential Lateral Solidification (SLS) of Si can be carried out on films as thin as–and potentially much thinner than–250 Å. When compared to thicker Si films, however, the SLS-processed ultra-thin films contain more twins, and successful processing requires irradiation within a narrower laser energy density range and a smaller per-pulse translation distance. The physical interpretation of these findings is formulated by analyzing the details of the microstructures observed in single-pulse-irradiation-induced Controlled Super-Lateral Growth (C-SLG) experiments. SEM and TEM analyses reveal complicated microstructural details that we interpret as originating from breakdown of epitaxial growth during lateral solidification, an effect that is detrimental to the SLS process. Based on considerations of far-from- equilibrium solidification behavior of Si, it is argued that undercooling of the solidification interface below a threshold value at which solidification no longer proceeds epitaxially–arising from reduction in interfacial recalescence during lateral solidification of ultra-thin Si films, relative to that of thicker films–is responsible for the breakdown. Based on this model, we discuss how external parameters may be adjusted so as to permit optimal crystallization of ultra-thin Si films using SLS.

This paper presents a novel algorithm for the 3D tomographic inversion problem that arises in single-particle electron cryomicroscopy (Cryo-EM). It is based on two key components: 1) a variational formulation that promotes sparsity in the wavelet domain and 2) the Toeplitz structure of the combined projection/back-projection operator. The first idea has proven to be very effective for the recovery of piecewise-smooth signals, which is confirmed by our numerical experiments. The second idea allows for a computationally efficient implementation of the reconstruction procedure, using only one circulant convolution per iteration.

Reconnection of the self-generated magnetic fields in laser-plasma interaction was first investigated experimentally by Nilson et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 97, 255001 (2006)] by shining two laser pulses a distance apart on a solid target layer. An elongated current sheet (CS) was observed in the plasma between the two laser spots. In order to more closely model magnetotail reconnection, here two side-by-side thin target layers, instead of a single one, are used. It is found that at one end of the elongated CS a fanlike electron outflow region including three well-collimated electron jets appears. The (>1 MeV) tail of the jet energy distribution exhibits a power-law scaling. The enhanced electron acceleration is attributed to the intense inductive electric field in the narrow electron dominated reconnection region, as well as additional acceleration as they are trapped inside the rapidly moving plasmoid formed in and ejected from the CS. The ejection also induces a secondary CS.

In this paper, the typical exponential method, diamond difference and modified time discrete scheme is researched for self adaptive time step. The second-order time evolution scheme is applied to time-dependent spherical neutron transport equation by discrete ordinates method. The numerical results show that second-order time evolution scheme associated exponential method has some good properties. The time differential curve about neutron current is more smooth than that of exponential method and diamond difference and modified time discrete scheme.
