Effect of precipitates on martensite formation and shape memory effect of FeMnSi-based shape memory alloys fabricated by laser powder bed fusion

The initial and evolving microstructure during the tensile test of two Fe-17Mn-5Si-10Cr-4Ni shape memory alloys, with and without V, C and fabricated by laser powder bed fusion are investigated and compared via electron backscattered diffraction, transmiss ...

Engineering Symmetry Breaking Interfaces by Nanoscale Structural-Energetics in Orthorhombic Perovskite Thin Films

Duncan Thomas Lindsay Alexander, Bernat Mundet

The atomic configuration of phases and their interfaces is fundamental to materials design and engineering. Here, we unveil a transition metal oxide interface, whose formation is driven by energetic influences─epitaxial tensile strain versus oxygen octahed ...

Significant reduction of cell invasiveness in nanoneedle insertion into a living cell with an electron-beam-deposited probe: impacts of probe geometry, speed and vibration

Marcos Penedo Garcia

Intracellular probing of living cells using atomic force microscopy (AFM) has advanced significantly, but it requires specially designed nanoprobes to achieve precision and minimize damage. The development of focused ion beam (FIB)-milled nanoprobes enable ...

Synthesis and properties of heterostructures in nanowires and 2-D materials

Akshay Balgarkashi

Modern solid-state devices were made possible by the discovery of semiconductor heterostructures. Heterostructures offer the ability to fabricate low-dimensional nanostructures such as quantum dots which can restrain carriers in all three-directions. Quant ...

Optimization of composition and structure of cemented carbide cutting tools

Samy Adjam

WC-Co cemented carbides are composites, which combine a hard phase consisting of WC grains and a metallic ductile phase as a binder. Their excellent mechanical properties, combining high hardness, toughness and refractory properties, make them excellent ma ...

Superplastic behavior of silica nanowires obtained by direct patterning of silsesquioxane-based precursors

Yusuf Leblebici

Silica nanowires spanning 10 μm-deep trenches are fabricated from different types of silsesquioxane-based precursors by direct e-beam patterning on silicon followed by release through deep reactive ion etching. Nanowire aspect ratios as large as 150 are ac ...

Enhancing the optoelectronic properties of amorphous zinc tin oxide by subgap defect passivation: A theoretical and experimental demonstration

Christophe Ballif, Aïcha Hessler-Wyser, Quentin Thomas Jeangros, Monica Morales Masis, Jakub Holovsky, Oscar Esteban Rucavado Leandro, Federica Landucci

The link between sub-bandgap states and optoelectronic properties is investigated for amorphous zinc tin oxide (a-ZTO) thin films deposited by RF sputtering. a-ZTO samples were annealed up to 500 °C in oxidizing, neutral, and reducing atmospheres before ch ...

A diamond-based scanning probe spin sensor operating at low temperature in ultra-high vacuum

Klaus Kern, Markus Ternes

We present the design and performance of an ultra-high vacuum (UHV) low temperature scanning probe microscope employing the nitrogen-vacancy color center in diamond as an ultrasensitive magnetic field sensor. Using this center as an atomic-size scanning pr ...

InAs Quantum Dot Arrays Decorating the Facets of GaAs Nanowires

Anna Fontcuberta i Morral, Emanuele Uccelli

InAs quantum dot arrays are obtained on GaAs nanowire facets by molecular beam epitaxy. The GaAs nanowires are first grown by the gallium-assisted catalyst-free method. Decoration of the nanowire facets with InAs quantum dots is achieved only when the face ...
