This article develops a model for the closing of a gaseous hole in a liquid domain within a two-dimensional fluid layer coupled to a Stokesian subfluid substrate, and compares this model to experiments following hole dynamics in a polymer Langmuir monolayer. Closure of such a hole in a fluid layer is driven by the line tension at the hole boundary and the difference in surface pressure within the hole and far outside it. The observed rate of hole closing is close to that predicted by our model using estimates of the line tension obtained by other means, assuming that the …

We report novel femtosecond time‐resolved measurements performed on staggered type II GaAs/AlAs multiple quantum well structures. Photoexcited electrons were determined to transfer from the Γ valley of the GaAs layers to the X valleys of the AlAs in 100 and 400 fs for 8‐ and 11‐monolayer‐thick GaAs samples, respectively.
