Bistable structures associated with nonlinear deformation behavior, exemplified by the Venus flytrap and slap bracelet, can switch between different functional shapes upon actuation. Despite numerous efforts in modeling such large deformation behavior of shells, the roles of mechanical and nonlinear geometric effects on bistability remain elusive. We demonstrate, through both theoretical analysis and tabletop experiments, that two dimensionless parameters control bistability. Our work classifies the conditions for bistability, and extends the large deformation theory of plates and shells.

In this paper, we review various LTPS backplane technologies based on laser-crystallization and other related methods that have been applied to AMLCD and AMOLED displays. The TFT performances obtained by different melt-mediated crystallization methods with excimer laser and solid phase crystallization will be compared. The technical issues of the image quality and the resolution will be discussed.

During directional solidification of the solvent in a colloidal suspension, the colloidal particles segregate from the growing solid, forming high-particle-density regions with structure on a hierarchy of length scales ranging from that of the particle-scale packing to the large-scale spacing between these regions. Previous work has concentrated mostly on the medium- to large-length scale structure, as it is the most accessible and thought to be more technologically relevant. However, the packing of the colloids at the particle scale is an important component not only in theoretical descriptions of the segregation process, but also to the utility of freeze-cast materials for new applications. Here we present the results of experiments in which we investigated this structure across a wide range of length scales using a combination of small-angle x-ray scattering and direct optical imaging. As expected, during freezing the particles were concentrated into regions between ice dendrites forming a microscopic pattern of high- and low-particle-density regions. X-ray scattering indicates that the particles in the high-density regions were so closely packed as to be touching. However, the arrangement of the particles does not conform to that predicted by standard interparticle pair potentials, suggesting that the particle packing induced by freezing differs from that formed during equilibrium densification processes.

This paper reports on new experimental findings and conclusions regarding the pulsed-laser-induced melting-and-solidification behavior of PECVD a-Si films. The experimental findings reveal that, within the partial-melting regime, these a-Si films can melt and solidify in ways that are distinct from, and more complex than, those encountered in microcrystalline-cluster-rich LPCVD a-Si films. Specifically (1) spatially dispersed and temporally stochastic nucleation of crystalline solids occurring relatively effectively at the moving liquid-amorphous interface, (2) very defective crystal growth that leads to the formation of fine-grained Si proceeding, at least initially after the nucleation, at a sufficiently rapidly moving crystal solidification front, and (3) the propensity for local preferential remelting of the defective regions and grain boundaries (while the beam is still on) are identified as being some of the fundamental factors that can participate and affect how these PECVD films melt and solidify.

In this paper we show that a flash lamp can be employed to induce controlled lateral solidification of a-Si thin films. Specifically, a dual xenon-arc-lamp-based system was utilized to induce location-controlled complete melting by shaping the incident beam using a contact mask. The resulting laterally solidified microstructure consisted of exceptionally long grains (~10s to ~100s of μm) that were relatively free of intragrain-defects. With further development and optimization, the approach may lead to cost-effective/high-throughput processes and systems that can capture and enhance the advantages of laser-based/melt-mediated crystallization techniques.
