The biomedical industry has an increasing demand for dissimilar metal joining processes, which are used for complex configuration designs, such as guidewires and other intravascular interventional devices. Their production becomes more and more challenging ...
Hermiticity is an essential requirement of a MEMS package for a device to work properly. Hermeticity also must be preserved during the operations following packaging, during which the package bond should not remelt. Bonding temperature is limited however t ...
Nanowire superconducting single photon detectors (SSPDs) [1] are characterized by very high sensitivity in the near infrared (detection efficiency η up to 30%, for a dark count rate DK of few Hz), speed (up to ∼1 GHz repetition rate) and time resolution (j ...
The rational synthesis of novel materials requires the control over the arrangement of matter in order to meet the desired properties for applications and devices. Ultimately, control means to define the place of each atom and determine its chemical state, ...
By addition of Si to a binary transition metal nitride MN (e.g. TiN, ZrN, NbN, CrN), the hardness, thermal stability and chemical inertness of films have been considerably improved. The formation of a ternary M–Si–N ternary phase is possible under specific ...
In selective laser melting machines, continuous laser are usually used to melt the powder. The support structures, which are inevitable when dealing with elaborated pieces, necessitate a complex design by CAD in order to be easily removed. This paper propo ...
In jewelry manufacturing, joining dissimilar materials is usually achieved by brazing or soldering, in which the materials comprising the joint are heated to a suitable temperature in the presence of a filler metal having a liquidus below the solidus of th ...
Mixed aluminum-chromium oxide coatings in the form of (Al,Cr)(2)O-3 solid solutions have attracted extensive research interest during the past years due to their successful use for challenging wear applications and the comparative ease of their moderate-te ...
In this work, a low-firing thick-film materials system allowing fabrication of piezoresistive sensors on surgical alloys is presented in detail, with application to a force-sensing surgical instrument. The system comprises a series of individual thick-film ...
In order to better understand the microstructure that forms during laser welding of an 18 carat gold and an austenitic stainless steel, solidification of the Au-Fe binary analog has been studied using thermal analysis and interrupted Bridgman experiments. ...
