Modeling nonequilibrium dynamics of phase transitions at the nanoscale: Application to spin-crossover

In this article, we present a continuum mechanics based approach for modeling thermally induced single-nanoparticle phase transitions studied in ultrafast electron microscopy. By using coupled differential equations describing heat transfer and the kinetics of the phase transition, we determine the...
