Stable Quasicrystalline Ground States
We give a strong evidence that noncrystalline materials such as quasicrystals or incommensurate solids are not exceptions but rather are generic in some regions of a phase space. We show this by constructing classical lattice gas models with translationinvariant, finite-range interactions and with a unique quasiperiodic ground state which is stable against small perturbations of two-body potent...
متن کاملThermodynamic Stability of Transition States in Nanosystems
We present a theory which shows that, in a closed system of fixed volume capable of undergoing a phase transition, the transition state can be thermodynamically stable against the bulk phases if a certain material parameters criterion is fulfilled. In a small system below the critical size the transition state turns into a globally stable phase that can be observed experimentally. This effect i...
متن کاملThermodynamic ground states of platinum metal nitrides.
The thermodynamic stabilities of various phases of the nitrides of the platinum-metal elements are systematically studied using density functional theory. It is shown that for the nitrides of Rh, Pd, Ir, and Pt two new crystal structures, in which the metal ions occupy simple tetragonal lattice sites, have lower formation enthalpies at ambient conditions than any previously proposed structures....
متن کاملThermodynamic competition between membrane protein oligomeric states
Self-assembly of protein monomers into distinct membrane protein oligomers provides a general mechanism for diversity in the molecular architectures, and resulting biological functions, of membrane proteins. We develop a general physical framework describing the thermodynamic competition between different oligomeric states of membrane proteins. Using the mechanosensitive channel of large conduc...
متن کاملStable states in the radiant heat transfer of the near field for two parallel slabs
In this paper, we study the dynamics of the radiative heat transfer of between two slabs. In these systems, depending on the type of slabs and the thermal interaction they have with their surroundings, they can have one or several stable states in the phase space. It can be seen that in these systems, quantities such as distance and thickness affect the states of these systems. We show that the...
