Free Energy of a Nonuniform System. I. Interfacial Free Energy
It is shown that the free energy of a volume V of an isotropic system of nonuniform composition or density is given by : NV∫V [f0(c)+κ(▿c)2]dV, where NV is the number of molecul...

Orbital angular momentum of light and the transformation of Laguerre-Gaussian laser modes
Laser light with a Laguerre-Gaussian amplitude distribution is found to have a well-defined orbital angular momentum. An astigmatic optical system may be used to transform a hig...
