Micro-scale Fracture Testing of Graded (Pt,Ni)Al Bond Coats
(2018-04-16)
PtNiAl bond coats are diffusion aluminide coatings deposited on superalloy based turbine blades for oxidation resistance and improved adhesion between the substrate and the YSZ thermal barrier coating on top. They are ...
First-Principles Studies of Point Defects and Phase Transformations in Materials
(2018-01-18)
The functional and mechanical properties of a material are often determined by the defects in them. A thorough understanding of the relationship between the defects and the properties allows for tailoring a material’s ...
Structural, Ferroelectric, Piezoelectric and Phase Transition Studies of Lead Free (Na0.5Bi0.5)TiO3 Based Ceramics
(2018-04-23)
Ferroelectric materials, especially the polycrystalline ceramics, are very promising material for a variety of applications such as high permittivity dielectrics, ferroelectric memories, piezoelectric sensors, piezoelect ...
Synthesis and Transformation of AuCu Intermetallic Nanoparticles
(2018-04-16)
Investigations on size dependent phase stability and transformations in isolated nanoparticles have gained momentum in recent times. Size dependent phase stability generates size specific particle microstructure which ...
