Surface alloying can alter surface electronic and magnetic properties, which are key parameters when developing new materials tailored for specific applications. A magnetic surface alloy was formed by depositing Sb on Ni(111) at elevated…
Second Generation advanced high strength steel is the material of choice for modern automotive structural parts because of its outstanding maximal elongation and tensile strength. Nonetheless there is still a lack of corrosion protection…
The susceptibility of nickel-based superalloys to processing-induced crack formation during laser powder-bed additive manufacturing is studied. Twelve different alloys -- some of existing (heritage) type but also other newly-designed ones…
Surface termination and interfacial interactions are critical for advanced solid-state quantum applications. In this paper, we demonstrate that atomic layer deposition (ALD) can both provide valuable insight on the chemical environment of…
Laser ablation of Al-Ni alloys and Al films on Ni substrates has been studied by molecular dynamics simulations (MD). The MD method was combined with a two-temperature model to describe the interaction between the laser beam, the electrons…
Effects of steel alloying elements on the formation of the surface oxide layer of hot-dip galvanized press hardened steel after austenitization annealing were examined with various advanced microscopy and spectroscopy techniques. The main…
A method to treat the surface of Nb is described which potentially can improve the performance of superconducting RF cavities. We present tunneling and x-ray photoemission spectroscopy (XPS) measurements at the surface of cavity-grade…
We report on the impact of growth conditions on surface hillock density of N-polar GaN grown on nominally on-axis (0001) sapphire substrate by metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). Large reduction in hillock density was achieved…
We report the results of the Ni-based bulk metallic glass structural evolution and crystallization behavior in situ investigation. The X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), nano-beam diffraction (NBD),…
High strength 7xxx Al-alloys are currently commonly used in aerospace and are expected to be increasingly employed in the automotive sector for weight reduction purposes. These alloys can however be sensitive to stress-corrosion cracking…
Surface properties are critical to the capabilities of superconducting microwave devices. The native oxide of niobium-based devices is thought to consist of a thin normal conducting layer. To improve understanding on the importance of this…
Atomic and molecular layer deposition (ALD/MLD) coatings are promising solutions for preventing dendrite formation in aqueous and non-aqueous Li/Na/Zn metal batteries. Notably, alumina and alucone coatings have emerged as highly effective…
The Ni-base superalloy 718 is the most widely used material for turbomachinery in the aerospace industry and land-based turbines. Although the relationship between processing and the resulting properties is well known, an understanding of…
Investigation on oxidation resistance of two-dimensional (2D) materials is critical for many of their applications, because 2D materials could have higher oxidation kinetics than their bulk counterparts due to predominant surface atoms and…
To investigate the effect of wettability on multiphase flow in porous media, hydrophilic glass surfaces are typically modified through a silanization process. This study examines the nanoscale chemical and structural modifications of glass…
Present work was aimed to investigate the effect of nitriding time; 1, 1.5, 2.5 & 3.5 h, on surface characteristics & mechanical properties (surface nano-hardness, hardness Vickers, and adhesion) of AISI M2 tool steel. Mechanically…
Complex microstructure evolution has been observed \rev{both bare and coated } Ni-based single crystal superalloys. Rafting and $\gamma'$ depletion are investigated in this study through a brief experimental analysis and a detailed phase…
We study the influence of the liquid-vapor surface on the crystallization kinetics of supercooled metal alloys. While a good glass former, $\rm{Cu}_{50}\rm{Zr}_{50}$, shows no evidence of surface enhancement of crystallization,…
In this master thesis, diamond-like carbon DLC/Cr bilayer systems, with thickness up to 1278 nm were formed on ABS, glass and Si substrates. Substrates surface were prepared by oxygen plasma cleaning process. The chromium thin film, which…
In the rapidly evolving field of quantum computing, niobium nitride (NbN) superconductors have emerged as integral components due to their unique structural properties, including a high superconducting transition temperature (Tc),…
