Metallurgy of Complex Metallic Alloys

Friction and solid-solid adhesion on complex metallic alloys

“…The use of uniaxial pressure to close the inter-grain porosity is described elsewhere [7], whereas information about isostatic pressurisation can be found in [8]. We will also refer in this review to data gained on single crystals grown by Czochralsky pulling at the Juelich Research Centre in Germany [9]. Coatings were widely studied in view of contact mechanics applications.…”

Chemical vapor deposition of Al, Fe and of the Al13Fe4 approximant intermettalic phase

“…MOCVD processes of iron amidinate precursors such as [Fe 2 (μ-i PrMeAMD) 2 (η 2 -i PrMeAMD) 2 ] or [Fe( t Bu-MeAMD) 2 ] (AMD:acetamidinate) yield Fe carbide or Fe nitride films (Krisyuk et al, 2010), although their application in ALD processes results in pure Fe films (Lim et al, 2003). Moreover, the Fe(II) amidinate precursors are extremely sensitive to air and light (Gottlieb-Schoenmeyer et al, 2010) and thus, a careful and difficult handling is required.…”
