Fabrication of wear-resistant omniphobic surfaces is a persistent scientific challenge and essential for various applications such as in paint industries, fluid transport, antifouling, reduction of friction drag on ship hulls, and stain resistant textiles. ...
Silicon nitride based ceramics (SiAlONs); tetragonal polycrystalline zirconia (3Y‐TZP); alumina and their composites reinforced with different amount of multi‐ walled carbon‐nanotubes (CNTs) have been processed by Spark Plasma Sintering (SPS). High tempera ...
Transparent polycrystalline alumina has many possible promising areas of application from jewelry and the watch industry to wave guides, energy economical lamp envelopes, and optical windows. Ultrahigh density, submicron sized grains and/or oriented micros ...
Small amounts of anion impurities (e.g. Cl), which are incorporated during the synthesis of ceramic powders, can affect the properties and microstructure of the final sintered ceramic. The effect of anion impurities is a little studied and poorly understoo ...
In this work we discuss the reliability of the coupling among three-dimensional (3D) and one-dimensional (1D) models that describe blood flowing into the circulatory tree. In particular, we study the physical consistency of the 1D model with respect to the ...
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 ...
This poster shows simulation results of trasngranular fracture percentage in the ceramic microstructure under tensile loading. Moreover, the crack face roughness was investigated for microstructures with different grain sizes. ...
The fabrication of complex, three-dimensional microscale shapes that can be replicated over large surfaces is an ongoing challenge, albeit one with a wide range of possible applications such as engineered surfaces with tuned wetting properties, scaffolds f ...
Over the last century, the constant quest to improve the mechanical properties of ceramics has ultimately led to the appearance and production of transparent ceramics. Indeed, microstructural refinement and reduction of the residual porosity after sinterin ...
We describe a high-efficiency grating coupler (GC) fabricated on a silicon-on-insulator wafer with 220 nm top silicon layer. One single 60 nm shallow etch is required to define the diffractive gratings with a minimum lithographic feature size of 180 nm, wh ...
