Dislocation-Precipitate Interactions in Magnesium-Neodymium Alloys
(2019)
The dislocation-precipitate interaction in Mg-Nd alloy has been characterized by in situ straining in transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Postmortem study on deformed samples has been conduct on various technique ...
Synthesis of Three-dimensional Polymer Nanostructures via Chemical Vapor Deposition
(2017)
Chemical vapor deposition (CVD) is a widely practiced methodology for preparing thin film polymer coatings, and the coatings can be applied to a broad range of materials, including three-dimensional solid structures and ...
Growth, Characterization and Assembly of Lead Chalcogenide Nanosemiconductors for Ionizing Radiation Sensors
(2022)
The demand for precise and efficient nuclear radiation detection has increased dramatically, particularly in numerous scientific disciplines, as well as homeland security and medical imaging applications. Modern methods ...
Recrystallization and Grain Growth Kinetics in Binary Alpha Titanium-Aluminum Alloys
(2017)
Titanium alloys are used in a variety of important naval and aerospace applications and often undergo thermomechanical processing which leads to recrystallization and grain growth. Both of these processes have a significant ...
Semiconducting Polymer Design and Interface Engineering for Efficient Charge Transport
(2020)
A major challenge to achieve macroscopic conjugated polymer (CP) alignment leading to efficient charge transport stems from the intrinsic disordered and entangled nature of CP chains. Liquid crystalline (LC) CP design ...
Damage Evolution and Characterization of SiC/SiC Ceramic Matrix Composites Using Micro-Computed Tomography Techniques
(2020)
In situ x-ray computed tomography was performed on melt infiltrated (MI) SiC/SiC ceramic matrix composites under tension in order to observe and quantify damage progression. The advanced light source (ALS) at Lawrence ...
Synthesis, Recycling, and Modification of Thermoset Silicone Resins via Fluoride Ion Catalyzed Rearrangement
(2019)
Silicones are unique polymers with inorganic backbones that, in part, afford properties that cannot be matched by organic polymers. A short list of their many attractive properties includes thermal stability, chemical ...
Predicting the Formation Pathways and Morphologies of Oxygenated Carbonaceous Nanoparticle Precursors in Premixed Flames
(2017)
Organic nanoparticles are an inevitable by-product of combustion phenomena that have deleterious health and environmental effects. They are carcinogenic because they damage biological cells due to their small size and their ...
