An atomistic view of adhesion
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; ESCOM Science Publishers B.V. ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1996-08)
Some results on first-principles calculations of adhesion are reviewed. The universal relationship between adhesive energy and interfacial spacing, as well as significant effects of impurities on adhesion are discussed.
Crystal chemistry of [beta]-Si3N4 solid solutions containing metal oxides
(Elsevier, 1976-05)
Phase equilibrium diagrams of Si3N4-metal oxides systems were reviewed. It was found that the solid solubility limits of different metal oxides in [beta]-Si3N4 depends on the size and charge of the metal elements. A misfit ...
The effect of surface relaxation and atomic vibration on the equilibrium shape of gold and copper crystallites
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; ESCOM Science Publishers B.V. ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1994-04)
The free energy of surfaces along the <011> pole in gold and copper is determined to assess the effect of surface relaxation and atomic vibration on the equilibrium crystal shape of gold and copper. The Wulff construction ...
Comparative III-As-Bi Surface Morphologies and Microstructure and Disciplinary Literacy in MSE
(2023)
The first section of the dissertation concerns the growth and characterization of III-V-Bi films. The class of III-V semiconductors contains materials that are well-suited for applications in computation, detection, and ...
