Spinodal Crystallization of Polymers: Crystallization from the Unstable Melt
This paper reviews the authors' investigation into polymer crystallization, especially involving a spinodal decomposition (SD) type phase... -
Molecular Dynamics Modeling of the Crystal-Melt Interfaces and the Growth of Chain Folded Lamellae
The molecular mechanism of polymer crystallization is one of the most difficult problems and has defied innumerable efforts to understand the... -
Topological Mechanism of Polymer Nucleation and Growth – The Role of Chain Sliding Diffusion and Entanglement
Direct evidence of nucleation during the induction period of nucleation from the melt is obtained for the first time by means of small angle X-ray... -
Modeling Polymer Crystallization
We summarize the salient conclusions derived from Langevin dynamics simulations of many flexible polymer molecules undergoing crystallization from... -
Dynamical Theory of Parametric X-ray Radiation
Previous chapters demonstrate a close analogue between the theory of parametric X-ray radiation (PXR) in thin crystals and the kinematic theory of... -
Cu-Mg-Si (Copper - Magnesium - Silicon)
This document is part of Subvolume A4 'Light Metal Systems. Part 4: Selected Systems from Al-Si-Ti to Ni-Si-Ti' of Volume 11 'Ternary Alloy Systems -... -
Radiation from a Charged Particle in Periodic Media: Classical Theory
The method of pseudophotons, considered in the previous chapter, is convenient for qualitative analysis of parametric X-ray radiation (PXR). PXR in... -
Prospective Applications of PXR
The previous chapters concern the fundamental properties of PXR, which have been experimentally observed and theoretically explained. The most recent... -
Electromagnetic Radiation from a Charged Particle in Crystals: Qualitative Consideration
Electromagnetic radiation caused by motion of a charged particle has been studied for more than 100 years. It was firmly believed for an appreciable... -

Chemical Solution Depositionof Layer-Structured Ferroelectric Thin Films
Ferroelectric rare-earth-doped Bi4Ti3O12 thin films have been successfully prepared on Si-based substrates by using metallo-organic precursor... -
Relaxor Superlattices: Artificial Control of the Ordered–Disordered State of B-Site Ions in Perovskites
We have developed a new superlattice technique to artificially control the B-site ordering state. The technique has been applied to Ba(Zr0.2Ti0.8)O3,... -
Pb-Based Ferroelectric Thin Films Prepared by MOCVD
This Chapter focuses on the preparation and ferroelectric properties of Pb-based thin films and nanostructures. First, the growth behavior of... -
The 3DXRD Microscope
The 3DXRD microscope at ESRF is installed in a separate laboratory, the second experimental hutch at beamline ID11 [1,2]. The beamline is an... -
Multigrain Crystallography
Traditionally, x-ray crystallography is based on either powder diffraction data or single-crystal studies. Both methods have their distinct... -
Combining 3DXRD and Absorption Contrast Tomography
The 3DXRD setup sketched in Fig. 3.1 is very similar to the setup typically used for absorption contrast x-ray tomography at synchrotrons.... -
Rhombohedral PZT Thin Films Prepared by Sputtering
PZT thin films with a rhombohedral perovskite structure were successfully grown on (111) PLT/Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si and (111) Ir/SiO2/Si substrates. The... -
Correlation Between Domain Structures and Dielectric Properties in Single Crystals of Ferroelectric Solid Solutions
In the present chapter, the growth of single crystals in relaxor–PbTiO3 (PT) solid solution system by the flux method and the solution Bridgman... -
