Flash sintering phenomena are predominantly associated with ceramics due to thermal runaway of their electric conductivity noticeably represented in materials such as zirconia or silicon carbide. Because of their high electric conductivity,…
A sheared microscopic graphite mesa retracts spontaneously to minimize interfacial energy. Using an optical knife-edge technique, we report comparative measurements of the speeds of such self-retracting motion (SRM) in air and low vacuum…
We have examined the interfacial thermal conductance {\sigma}int of single and multi-layer graphene samples prepared on fused SiO2 substrates by mechanical exfoliation of graphite. By using an ultrafast optical pump pulse and monitoring the…
The ionizations per photon, or S/XB, method uses spectroscopic measurements of radiating impurity ions to determine the influx from a solid surface. It is highly useful as a non-perturbing, in-situ measure of the gross erosion flux of…
Melting experiments require rapid data acquisition due to instabilities of the molten sample and optical drifting due to the high required laser power. In this work, the melting curve of zirconium has been determined for the first time up…
Femtosecond laser surface processing (FLSP) is an emerging fabrication technique to efficiently control the surface morphology of many types of materials including metals. However, the theoretical understanding of the FLSP formation…
Sapphire fiber can withstand around 2000{\deg}C, but it is multimoded, giving poor precision sensors. We demonstrate a single-mode sapphire fiber Bragg grating temperature sensor operating up to 1200{\deg}C. The repeatability above…
Techniques for mass-production of large area graphene using an industrial scale thin film deposition tool could be the key to the practical realization of a wide range of technological applications of this material. Here, we demonstrate the…
Half-metals are a class of quantum materials with 100% spin-polarization at the Fermi level and have attracted a lot of attention for future spintronic device applications. CrO2 is one of the most promising half-metal candidates, for which…
Graphite, with many industrial applications, is one of the widely sought-after allotropes of carbon. The sp2 hybridized and thermodynamically stable form of carbon forms a layered structure with strong in-plane carbon bonds and weak…
In any domain involving some stressed solids, that is, from seismology to general engineering, the strength of matter is a paramount feature to understand. We here discuss the ability of a simple thermally activated sub-critical model, that…
By combining scanning probe microscopy with Raman and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopies, we investigate the evolution of CVD-grown graphene/Ge(001) as a function of the deposition temperature in close proximity to the Ge melting point,…
Monolithic 3YTZP and 3YTZP containing 2.5 vol.% of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) were fabricated by Spark Plasma Sintering (SPS) at 1250 C. Microstructural characterization of the as-fabricated 3YTZP/SWCNTs composite shows a…
Future observatories utilizing reflection grating spectrometers for extreme ultraviolet (EUV) and soft X-ray (SXR) spectroscopy require high-fidelity gratings with both blazed groove facets and custom groove layouts that are often fanned or…
Graphene is a fascinating 2D material that is being widely investigated for use in electronic devices due to its unique electronic and materials properties. Also, because of its high thermal stability and inertness, it is considered a…
High resolution magnetoresistance data in highly oriented pyrolytic graphite thin samples manifest non-homogenous superconductivity with critical temperature $T_c \sim 25 $K. These data exhibit: i) hysteretic loops of resistance versus…
Spark plasma sintering (SPS) technique is applied in combination with hydrogen decrepitation process for the recycling of SmCo5 magnets. The SmCo5 magnets for recycling were first decrepitated by hydrogen gas of a pressure of 4 bar for 3…
The occurrence of high stress concentrations in reactor components is a still intractable phenomenon encountered in fusion reactor design. We observe and quantitatively model a non-linear high-dose radiation mediated microstructure…
Thermal stability of silicene and thin silicon films is studied by molecular dynamics using two machine-learning potentials, SNAP and GAP. For SNAP potential, systems ranging from a single silicene layer to films of 36 layers are…
The formation of graphene on the (0001) surface of SiC (the Si-face) is studied by atomic force microscopy, low-energy electron microscopy, and scanning tunneling microscopy/spectroscopy. The graphene forms due to preferential sublimation…
