Stoichiometry and Phase Composition of MOCVD Barium Titanate Films

October 12, 2021
Author(s)
Charles E. Bouldin, Joseph Woicik, Bruce Ravel, Debra Kaiser, Mark D. Vaudin
X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS), x-ray diffraction (XRD) and x-ray fluorescence (XRF) have been used to study the stoichiometry and phase composition of thin (approximately equal to} 1 micron) films deposited on MgO substrates. Deposition

Strength Evaluation on a Composite Marine Propeller Blade

October 12, 2021
Author(s)
H J. Lin, J J. Lin, Tze-Jer Chuang
The strength of a composite propeller blade is evaluated by performing a nonlinear hydro-elastic analysis. The finite element method, lifting surface theory, least square method, equilibrium equation and Hashin failure criteria are employed for the

Structure and Crystal Chemistry of M 0.5 Ta 0.5 B (M = Ti, Zr, and Hf)

October 12, 2021
Author(s)
I Talmy, J Zaykoski, J A. Kudak, Winnie Wong-Ng
During the development of refractory composites (cermets) combining MB2 (M=Ti, Zr, or Hf) ceramics and Ta metal, three new phases of compositions M0.5Ta0.5B were discovered. Preliminary determination of lattice parameters using x-ray powder diffraction

Subsolidus Phase Relationships in the AO-AI 2 O 3 -Nb 2 O 5 (A=Ca, Sr) Systems

October 12, 2021
Author(s)
Julia Y. Chan, Wilma Feb-Ayala, J. M. Loezos, L D. Rotter, Lyle E. Levine, Richard G. Geyer
Dielectric ceramics for wireless communications exhibiting modest permittivity, high quality factor (Q), and near-zero temperature coefficient are needed for high-frequency, high power applications. Efforts are in progress to replace Ta 2O 5-based ceramics

Surface Energy Anisotropy of SrTiO 3 at 1400 C in Air

October 12, 2021
Author(s)
T Sano, D M. Saylor, G S. Rohrer
Geometric and crystallographic measurements of grain boundary thermal grooves and surface faceting behavior as a function of orientation have been used to determine the surface energy anisotropy of SrTiO 3 at 1400 C in air. Under these conditions, thermal

Surface Morphology Dependent Magnetic Thin Film Growth: Fe on GaN(0001)

October 12, 2021
Author(s)
P Ryan, R A. Rosenberg, D J. Keavney, J W. Freeland, Joseph Woicik
Iron deposition on ordered and disordered GaN (0001) surfaces result in dramatically different magnetic over-layer characteristics. On the ordered surface, nitrogen rapidly desorbs upon Fe deposition and a magnetically disordered film is produced

Synchrotron Based Surface Science to Probe Polymeric Interfacial Regions

October 12, 2021
Author(s)
Joseph~undefined~undefined~undefined~undefined~undefined Lenhart, Daniel A. Fischer
Synchrotron based X-ray absorption spectroscopy was utilized to probe the chemistry and structure of polymers in interfacial regions, including the interfacial regions, including the interfacial composition of filled epoxy composites, and the surface

Tailoring the High-K Gate Dielectric/Sillicon Interface for CMOS Applications

October 12, 2021
Author(s)
Y S. Lin, R Puthenkovilakam, J P. Chang, C P. Bouldin, Igor Levin, Nhan Van Nguyen, Y Sun, P Pianetta, T Conard, W Vandervorst, V Venturo, S Selbrede
The interfacial properties, thermal stabilities, and the electrical characteristics of ZrO 2/ Si and ZrO 2/SiO 2/Si were investigated and the interfacial layer of as-deposited ZrO 2 on silicon is likely to be ZrSi xO y. The ZrO 2/ZrSi xO y/Si is
