A Study on the Characteristics of Cu-Mn-Dy Alloy Resistive Thin Films

Ho-Yun Lee

Cu-Mn-Dy resistive thin films were prepared on glass and Al2O3 substrates, which was achieved by co-sputtering the Cu-Mn alloy and dysprosium targets. The effects of the addition of dysprosium on the electrical properties and microstructures of annealed Cu ...

Influence of icosahedral short range order on diffusion in liquids: A study on Al-Zn-Cr alloys

Michel Rappaz, Güven Kurtuldu

It has been shown recently that minute additions of Cr in Al-Zn alloys refine the solidified grain structure and induce multiply-twinned grains which can only be explained if the icosahedral symmetry is considered (Kurtuldu et al., 2013). It has been sugge ...

Dendritic Growth Morphologies in Al-Zn Alloys-Part I: X-ray Tomographic Microscopy

Michel Rappaz, Paolo Di Napoli, Jonathan Friedli

Upon solidification, most metallic alloys form dendritic structures that grow along directions corresponding to low index crystal axes, e.g., directions in fcc aluminum. However, recent findings[1,2] have shown that an increase in the zinc content in Al-Zn ...
