Oxygen diffusion in garnet: Experimental calibration and implications for timescales of metamorphic processes and retention of primary O isotopic signatures

Knowledge of oxygen diffusion in garnet is crucial for a correct interpretation of oxygen isotope signatures in natural samples. A series of experiments was undertaken to determine the diffusivity of oxygen in garnet, which remains poorly constrained. The ...

Radio-Frequency Characteristics of Ge-doped Vanadium Dioxide Thin Films with Increased Transition Temperature

Mihai Adrian Ionescu, Andreas Schueler, Igor Stolichnov, Anna Krammer, Teodor Rosca, Matteo Cavalieri, Riyaz Mohammed Abdul Khadar, Andrei Müller, Fatemeh Qaderi Rahaqi

This work investigates and reports on the radio-frequency (RF) behavior in the frequency range of 5 – 35 GHz of germanium-doped (Ge-doped VO2) vanadium dioxide thin films, deposited on silicon substrates via sputtering and pulsed laser deposition (PLD) wit ...

Temperature-dependent multiangle FTIR NIR-MIR ellipsometry of thermochromic VO2 and V1-xWxO2 films

Rosendo Sanjines, Andreas Schueler, Antonio Paone

VO2 and W-doped VO2 thin films were prepared by Radio Frequency (RF) reactive magnetron sputtering using V-metal target. The amount of W doping was quantified by Rutherford Backscattering Spectrometry (RBS). The optical constants of VO2 and V1-xWxO2 films ...

Colloidal Processing and Yield Stress Modeling Towards Dry Pressed Green Bodies for Transparent Polycrystalline Alumina

Paul Bowen, Michael Stuer

Colloidal processing is a key aspect in modern ceramic processing but most formulations are found empirically. The need for a better knowledge based design of suspension formulation can be achieved by using interparticle potential modelling linked to rheol ...

Atomistic Modeling of Effect of Mg on Oxygen Vacancy Diffusion in alpha-Alumina

Paul Bowen, Ulrich Aschauer, Abhishek Tewari

Oxygen diffusion plays an important role in grain growth and densification during the sintering of alumina ceramics and governs high-temperature processes such as creep. The atomistic mechanism for oxygen diffusion in alumina is, however, still debated; at ...

Freeze granulation: Powder processing for transparent alumina applications

Paul Bowen, Michael Stuer, Zhe Zhao

Use of freeze granulated powders is successfully used as an industrially viable alternative to loose powder sintering for transparent polycrystalline alumina (PCA). Freeze granulation with narrow granule size distribution was realized after suspension cond ...

Surface and Mirror Twin Grain Boundary Segregation in Nd:YAG: An Atomistic Simulation Study

Paul Bowen, Ulrich Aschauer

Ceramic lasers have advantages such as better optical homogeneity, cheaper production, and more freedom in shape compared with monocrystalline lasers. However, equal or better laser performances are required. Interface segregation is important as ceramics ...
