A silicon photodiode coated with an interface-engineered Mo/Si multilayer was developed as a polarization sensitive detector. The Mo/B4C/Si multilayer was designed to reflect 13.5-nm extreme-ultraviolet (EUV) radiation at an incident angle of 45 degrees, at which the maximum polarization sensitivity occurs. The sensitivity of this specially coated photodiode and its polarization responses were ...

Aluminum-based alloy composites with high strength and low density can be used in corrosive environments. In this research, the nano-powders of A16061 alloy and A16061/TiB2 composite were synthesized by mechanical alloying (MA) method. Then, A16061 /TiB2 nano-composite bulk samples were prepared at laboratory scale by hot extrusion approach. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray diff...

Nanoparticles of titanium diboride (TiB2) coated with a conductive polymer and subjected to an oxidizing agent was carried out in this research. TiB2 nanoparticles polypyrrole (PPy) were studied using XRD TEM techniques. Nitrogen adsorption desorption properties are covered modified understand better the surface zone, structural features, pore geometries nanoparticles. The water-based hazardous...

Our previous constitutive model for fully dense ceramics has been extended to include A1203 (AD999) and Si3N4; there are now parameters for seven materials. New experimental data, such as spall and double-shock wave-profiles for SiC and B4C, have been successfully simulated. Additional experiments are proposed which should help elucidate the remaining problems.

in this research, surface composite layers containing nano sized tib2, al2o3-tib2, zro2 and cnt particles have been fabricated on aluminum alloy substrates by friction stir processing. the effects of different processing variables such as number of passes and strengthening particle distribution, hardness, and wear properties of surface nanocomposite layers have been evaluated by electron micros...

In Korea, an accelerator-driven system (ADS) called HYPER (Hybrid Power Extraction Reactor) is being studied for the transmutation of the radioactive wastes. HYPER is a 1 000 MWth leadbismuth eutectic (LBE)-cooled ADS. In this paper, the neutronic design characteristics of HYPER are described and its transmutation performances are assessed for an equilibrium cycle. The core is loaded with a duc...

The (TiB2+TiC)/AlSi10Mg composite powders with 1.5 wt% nano-TiB2 particles and nano-TiC were prepared by ball milling. Aluminum matrix composites (AMCs) reinforced TiB2 TiC fabricated via SLM optimal processing parameters. showed a very high ultimate tensile strength ∼552.4 MP excellent ductility ∼12%, which is 40.3% 166.7% higher than that of unreinforced AlSi10Mg, respectively. effects nanopa...
