This thesis was focused on the surface modification with plasma discharge. Austenitic AISI 316L stainless steel sample was carburised under different experimental conditions and mechanical properties have been studied (thickness, lattice…
We have used a full-potential linear muffin-tin orbital method to calculate the effects of oxygen impurities on the electronic structure of NiAl. Using the supercell method with a 16-atom supercell we have investigated the cases where an…
The oxidation of {\alpha}-Ti(0001) surface was studied using density functional theory. In order to enhance the oxidation resistance, we substituted Ti atoms with Si atoms in Ti(0001) surface. We observe that Si prefers to segregate at the…
We report an investigation of the structural and electronic properties of hybrid superconductor/ferromagnet (S/F) bilayers of composition Nb/Cu$_{60}$Ni$_{40}$ prepared by magnetron sputtering. X-ray and neutron reflectometry show that both…
The specular reflectivity of slow, metastable neon atoms from a silicon surface was found to increase markedly when the flat surface was replaced by a grating structure with parallel narrow ridges. For a surface with ridges that have a…
Reducing the coefficient of boundary friction on steel surfaces is one of key technologies to improve the efficiency of machines such as automotive engines. It has been shown that the boundary friction on nanostructured steel surfaces in…
The integration of graphene (Gr) with nitride semiconductors is highly interesting for applications in high-power/high-frequency electronics and optoelectronics. In this work, we demonstrated the direct growth of Gr on Al0.5Ga0.5N/sapphire…
Atomic layer deposition (ALD) is an essential tool in semiconductor device fabrication that allows the growth of ultrathin and conformal films to precisely form heterostructures and tune interface properties. The self-limiting nature of the…
In this work, we find that Al cladding on Nb microstrip resonators is an efficient way to suppress nonlinear responses induced by local Joule heating, resulting in improved microwave power handling capability. This improvement is likely due…
Stabilization of grain structure is important for nanocrystalline alloys, and grain boundary segregation is a common approach to restrict coarsening. Doping can alter grain boundary structure, with high temperature states such as amorphous…
The tensile creep performance of a polycrystalline Co/Ni-base superalloy with a multimodal gamma prime distribution has been examined at 800C and 300MPa. The rupture life of the alloy is comparable to that of RR1000 tested under similar…
Fluorescent nanodiamonds (NDs) are crystal defect-based light-emitting nanoparticles that can be applied to quantum information science and quantum sensing. Of particular interest are nitrogen vacancy (NV) centers that allow optical access…
Ti$_{1-x-y}$Al$_{x}$Zr$_{y}$N cubic alloys within the 25-70\% Al composition range have high age-hardening capabilities due to metastable phase transition pathways at high temperatures. They are thus ideal candidates for ultra-hard…
Accumulative Roll Bonding(ARB) process was used to develop few-layer graphene nano platelets reinforced aluminum matrix (GNPs/Al) composite in the form of sheets. Annealed Al sheets were ARB processed up to 6 pass along with coating of…
Further development of nuclear power plant technology relies heavily on materials durability under operating conditions. Estimating the materials performance in the operando tests is crucial. In this paper, the mechanical behavior of thin…
To enhance our understanding of oxidation in high-entropy alloys, the early stages of oxidation on the surface of Al10Nb15Ta5Ti30Zr40 were studied using density functional theory and thermodynamic modeling. Surface slabs were generated from…
Considering the sensitivity of both fatigue strength and corrosion rate to the surface characteristics, apposite surface treatments could address the related challenges for biodegradable magnesium-based materials. Herein, we treated the…
The drying of colloidal suspensions leads to complex deposition patterns, accompanied by instabilities such as cracking and delamination. In this study, we experimentally investigate the coupled influence of particle surface charge and…
Precipitation hardening, which relies on a high density of intermetallic precipitates, is a commonly utilized technique for strengthening structural alloys. Structural alloys are commonly strengthened through a high density of small size…
Surface stresses, in nano-sized anode particles undergoing chemomechanical interactions, have a relaxing effect on the diffusion-induced stresses thus improving the mechanical endurance of the particles, whereas, the compressive effect of…
