The presence of large scatter in linear response data has cast doubt on the existence of an inverse correlation between liquid fragility and nonexponentiality, as originally proposed by Böhmer(19934201). We present a model for the temperature dependence of the stretching exponent based on the Mauro-Yue-Ellison-Gupta-Allan model for supercooled liquid viscosity and discuss the factors impacting the relationship between fragility and the stretching exponent at the glass transition. The proposed model exhibits distinct advantages over previous models in terms of interpretability and limit behaviors for the temperature dependence.

Visualization and Estimation of 0D to 1D Nanostructure Size by Photoluminescence.

We elaborate a method for determining the 0D-1D nanostructure size by photoluminescence (PL) emission spectrum dependence on the nanostructure dimensions. As observed, the high number of diamond-like carbon nanocones shows a strongly blue-shifted PL spectrum compared to the bulk material, allowing for the calculation of their top dimensions of 2.0 nm.

In this study, a combined morphological and scaling analysis of brushes synthesized by the "grafting-through" method was performed, and the possibility of regulation of the thickness was revealed on an example of polyacrylamide brushes. The chemical composition of the surface in the proposed three-step approach was analyzed by photoelectron and infrared spectroscopy. It was shown that the thickness of the dried brush can be tuned in a controlled manner by varying the polymerization temperature.

The phenomenon of rate-dependent adhesion has long been recognized as an intricate problem, and the so-far-developed physics and mechanics-based approaches resulted in analytical relations between the implicit form between the work of adhesion and the contact front velocity which are difficult to implement in practice. To address this issue in the framework of spherical indentation, the adhesion relaxation test in a nominal point contact is introduced to estimate the rate-dependent adhesion. Based on a stretched exponent approximation for the contact radius evolution with time, a relatively simple four-parameter model is proposed for the functional relation between the work of adhesion and the contact front velocity, and its fitting performance is compared to that of the known Greenwood-Johnson and Persson-Brener models.

In the investigation of extreme density or wave height statistics in a disordered medium, of special interest is the search for universal or fundamental properties shared by different types of disorder. In previous work [Chen and Kaplan, Entropy 25, 161 (2023)1099-430010.3390/e25010161] we have established a direct connection between the degree of stretching or focusing of ray trajectories and the density distribution.

We investigate the dynamical critical behavior of the two-dimensional three-state Potts model with single spin-flip dynamics in equilibrium. We focus on the mean-squared deviation of the magnetization M (MSD_{M}) as a function of time, as well as on the autocorrelation function of M. Our simulations reveal the existence of two crossover behaviors at times τ_{1}∼L^{z_{1}} and τ_{2}∼L^{z_{2}}, separating three dynamical regimes.
