“…Over many decades, Si 3 N 4 powders and thin films with different phases have been prepared using different methods and techniques, including chemical and physical, such as ion-assisted deposition [16,17], heating powdered silicon [18,19], carbothermal reduction [20][21][22], chemical vapor deposition (CVD) [23][24][25][26][27], plasma-enhanced CVD [28], nitrogen glow discharge [29,30], atomic layer deposition (ALD) [31][32][33], silaneammonia reaction [34], and reactive sputtering [35][36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43]. However, the effect of the electrical conductivity of silicon used as a precursor of silicon nitride was not determined.…”

In this work, silicon nitride (Si3N4) thin films were deposited on metallic substrates (aluminium and titanium sheets) by the DC reactive sputtering technique using two different silicon targets (n-type and p-type Si wafers) as well as two Ar:N2 gas mixing ratios (50:50 and 70:30). The electrical conductivity of the metallic (aluminium and titanium) substrates was measured before and after the deposition of silicon nitride thin films on both surfaces of the substrates. The results obtained from this work showed that the deposited films, in general, reduced the electrical conductivity of the substrates, and the thin films prepared from n-type silicon targets using a 50:50 mixing ratio and deposited on both surfaces of a titanium substrate reduced the electrical conductivity of this substrate by 30%. This reduction in the release of ions from the coated metal substrate is attributed to the dielectric properties of the deposited silicon nitride thin films. This result is very important and applicable. This work represents the first attempt in Iraq to study such effects and may represent a good starting point for advanced studies in biomedical engineering.

“…1). For example, the combination of materials science and tribology can use preparation methods [15] and performance parameters of different materials [16] to design an interface and achieve good tribological properties. The combination of physics and tribology can guide the design of an interface texture [17,18] and explain the mechanism of friction reduction of 2D materials [19].…”

Tribo-informatics: Concept, architecture, and case study

Friction plays a vital role in energy dissipation, device failure, and even energy supply in modern society. After years of research, data and information on tribology research are becoming increasingly available. Because of the strong systematic and multi-disciplinary coupling characteristics of tribology, tribology information is scattered in various disciplines with different patterns, e.g., technical documents, databases, and papers, thereby increasing the information entropy of the system, which is inconducive to the preservation and circulation of research information. With the development of computer and information science and technology, many subjects have begun to be combined with information technology, and multi-disciplinary informatics has been born. This paper describes the combination of information technology with tribology research, presenting the connotation and architecture of tribo-informatics, and providing a case study on implementing the proposed concept and architecture. The proposal and development of tribo-informatics described herein will improve the research efficiency and optimize the research process of tribology, which is of considerable significance to the development of this field.

“…If the light waves have a long path inside the medium longer than the straight path of the waves, it will leave the medium without scattering. This is known as "multiple scattering", and it is not restricted to light waves but it's applied to all waves in nature [4][5][6]. There is an important parameter in multiple scattering; that is the mean free path (l) which is defined as the average distance for a light wave transferred between two scattering events [6] and given by [7,8] …”

Abstract:In this work, nanostructured silicon dioxide films are deposited by closed-field unbalanced direct-current (DC) reactive magnetron sputtering technique on two sides of quartz cells containing rhodamine B dye dissolved in ethanol with 10 -5 M concentration as a random gain medium. The preparation conditions are optimized to prepare highly pure SiO 2 nanostructures with a minimum particle size of about 20 nm. The effect of SiO 2 films as external cavity for the random gain medium is determined by the laser-induced fluorescence of this medium, and an increase of about 200% in intensity is observed after the deposition of nanostructured SiO 2 thin films on two sides of the dye cell.
