Properties and thermal stabilization of Nanocrystalline copper via solute additions of niobium
(Material Science and Technology, 2017 , Master Thesis)
Nanocrystalline materials, those with grain size <100 nm, were found to have superior mechanical properties compared to their coarse-grained (CG) counterparts. However, these materials are not thermally stable because of ...
Er Doped III-Nitride Semiconductors
(Material Science and Technology, 2017 , Master Thesis)
Erbium ions (Er3+) doped in a solid material enables the intra 4f shell transitions from its first excited state (4I13/2) to the ground state (4I15/2). The intra-4f shell transition at 1540 nm is of exceptional interest ...
Physico-Mechanical Properties of New Electrospun Polyvinylidene Fluoride Nanocomposites
(Materials Science and Technology, 2015 , Master Thesis)
This study aimed to prepare and characterize poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) nanofibres with the following additives: graphene oxide (GO), cellulose, and silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs). Two types of solvents were used to ...
Surface characterization and luminescence properties of AlN doped with RE elements (Sm, Ho, Gd, Tm)
(Materials Science and Technology, 2015 , Master Thesis)
Rare‐ earth (RE)‐doped III‐nitride broad band‐gap semiconductors have attracted enormous interest as a foundation for optoelectronics devices, which combine the unique luminescence feature of Rare‐earth ions with the ...
The Role of Key Impurity Elements on the Performance of Aluminium Electrolysis - Current Efficiency and Metal Quality
(Materials Science and Technology, 2015 , Master Thesis)
Impurities such as phosphorus and silicon mainly enter the aluminium electrolysis process with alumina. These impurities dissolve in the electrolyte and affect the performance of the electrolysis, the emissions from the ...
