Syntheses of ZSM-5 coatings on stainless steel plates were carried out via the substrate heating method. The reaction mixture was kept at temperatures below 100 °C, while the metal plates were heated to temperatures above 100 °C. It was demonstrated that c ...
Intergranular penetration of liquid bismuth has been analysed in two pure metals, Cu at 500°C and Ni at 700°C, used either as polycrystals or as oriented bicrystals. At the liquid/solid interface, large grooves have developed in Cu-Bi, while micrometer-thi ...
Because of their outstanding mechanical and chemical properties, transition metal nitrides are widely accepted materials in the protective coatings industry. This work aims at elucidating the origin of their exceptional properties. The study concentrates o ...
Aluminum zinc alloys constitute an important class of wrought alloys, the so-called 7000 series, and are also widely used as anti-corrosion coatings of steel sheets. They are also interesting from a more fundamental point of view because zinc, a hexagonal ...
Upon submonolayer deposition of Azure A molecules onto reconstructed Au(1 1 1), two-dimensional quasi-rectangular islands are observed by low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy. Strikingly, the 22 x root 3 reconstruction with alternating hexagonal c ...
This work presents the preliminary results on application of mineral sacrificial layer that is prepared to structure LTCC (low temperature co-fired ceramic). The proposed method suggests utilization of a sacrificial paste, which remains "permanent" during ...
The possibility of controlling materials properties by tailoring their substructure at the nanometer scale is a current topic of great interest. To do so, a fundamental understanding of the growth mechanism is of key importance and an analytical challenge ...
In this thesis, the magnetic and structural properties of layered epitaxial film systems and clusters are presented. A main achievement is the investigation of the direct correlation between magnetism and structural or morphological details of ultrathin fi ...
The microstructure, chemical and phase composition of the hard Ni-P-Ti layer formed on the Ti-6Al-4V alloy after duplex surface treatment were investigated by light microscopy, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and analytical/high-resolution ...
In the quest of materials for the first wall of the future fusion reactor, it has been shown that oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS) ferritic / martensitic (F/M) steels appear to be promising candidates. The inherent good mechanical properties supported b ...
