AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
Pure and barium titanate (BT) powders doped with different lanthanum concentration were prepared by the polymeric precursor method (Pechini process) which was carried out as a three-stage process from organometallic complexes. Sintering of pressed powders ...
Since the end of the last century, Cu damascene integration scheme has been the favoured choice for advanced interconnect technologies. Indeed, due to the lowest Cu bulk resistivity and to it higher resistance to electromigration, performances enhancement ...
Despite many years of intensive research there still remain many unresolved questions in powder and ceramic technology. A majority of these issues are linked to interfacial phenomena of atomic scale origin, which makes their experimental investigation very ...
We construct an approximate analytic expression for the growth of the neck between two sintering roughened crystals in contact with a melt. The result combines recent work on early phase sintering [R.S. Farr, M.J. Izzard, Phys. Rev. E 77 (2008) 041608], an ...
Procedures for synthesizing and meshing digital polycrystalline microstructures are demonstrated. The meshing operation relies on a metric field, yielding a nonuniform mesh size and a nonuniform mesh aspect ratio. Isotropic meshing is done in the grains in ...
The exact mechanism of creep resistance enhancement due to yttrium (Y) doping in a-alumina is still subject to speculation, although it is known that dopants segregate strongly to grain boundaries. The current work applies atomistic simulation techniques t ...
Procedures for synthesizing digital polycrystalline microstructures are illustrated, from either 2D statistical data or 3D deterministic data. Finite element meshes representing the digital microstructures are generated using anisotropic and adaptive mesh ...
Microstructural control is a key aspect in producing ceramics with tailored properties and is often achieved by using dopants in a rather empirical fashion. Atomic scale simulations could provide much needed insight but the long-standing challenge of linki ...
Two-step sintering of nanocrystalline zirconia powder stabilized with 8 mol% yttria resulted in remarkable enhancement of the electrical conductivity and significant suppression of the accelerated grain growth. The electrical conductivity of the nearly ful ...
Transparent polycrystalline alumina (PCA) is a promising replacement for sapphire. Its optical properties however are highly dependent on the grain size and residual porosity which need to be controlled for real inline transmittances (RIT), that are high e ...
