Published in 2017 at "Carbon"

DOI: 10.1016/j.carbon.2016.10.052

Abstract: Even when not functionalized intentionally, most carbon materials are not hydrophobic and readily adsorb water molecules from atmospheric water vapor. We have equilibrated an ultramicroporous carbon at several levels of relative humidity, thereby attaining various… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "Soft matter"

DOI: 10.1039/d5sm00865d

Abstract: We present a new apparatus that probes simultaneously the macroscopic mechanical response and the microscopic motion in polymer networks under uni-axial strain. The setup leverages photon correlation imaging, a space- and time-resolved dynamic light scattering… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America"

DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2201566119

Abstract: Significance The linear viscoelasticity of soft materials is governed by the microscopic thermal fluctuations of the underlying constituents in the system, which are expected to give rise to mono-exponential stress relaxation processes. However, many soft… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America"

DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2514216122

Abstract: Significance Understanding how soft materials yield under stress is essential for both natural processes and industrial applications. However, direct experimental insights into nanoscale dynamics during yielding and their connection to macroscopic rheology remain limited. This… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Physical review letters"

DOI: 10.1103/physrevlett.129.018003

Abstract: In this work, we revisit the fragile-to-strong transition (FTS) in the simulated BKS silica from the perspective of microscopic dynamics in an effort to elucidate the dynamical behaviors of fragile and strong glass-forming liquids. Softness,… read more here.
