GaN-based devices are ubiquitous in everyday life, ranging from InGaN/GaN light-emitting diodes (LEDs) for illumination to AlGaN/GaN high-electron-mobility transistors for compact power supplies. Nevertheless, despite the tremendous development in the past ...
The effects of 1 wt% HfO2 nano-dispersoid addition on the microstructure of a high -y' Ni-8.5Cr-5.5Al-1Ti (wt%) model superalloy are investigated after manufacturing via laser-based powder-bed fusion (PBF-LB). Despite their very high melting point, HfO2 di ...
Effects of chromium (Cr) content on types and morphologies of various phases of a newly developed Co-Ni-Al-W superalloy (Co-30Ni-6W-9Al-3Ti-1Ta) have been investigated in this study. Microstructural examinations were carried out by field-emission scanning ...
This paper reports on the fabrication of In xGa 1 - xN (InGaN) layers with various compositions ranging from InN to GaN using a cost-effective low-temperature plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) method and analyzes the influence of deposition ...
Precipitation strengthening is one of the key strengthening strategies in many industrial alloys like aluminum alloys, nickel-based superalloys, etc. The yield strength of alloy is improved by forming precipitates in materials and employing them as obstacl ...
We study the creep behavior of Cu64Zr36 glass-crystal nanocomposites under elastostatic loading conditions in molecular dynamics simulations. By manipulating the glass-crystal interfaces of a precipitation-annealed glass containing Laves-type crystallites, ...
Understanding and controlling the electronic structure of thin layers of quantum materials is a crucial first step towards designing heterostructures where new phases and phenomena, including the metal-insulator transition (MIT), emerge. Here, we demonstra ...
Titanium aluminium nitride (TiAlN)-based coatings are designed specially for applications where oxidation and wear resistance are primary demands, as in the case of cutting tools. Moreover the coatings are required to be thermally stable as well as have go ...
