  2. 1. Synthesis and Characterisation of Magnetron Sputtered Alumina-Zirconia Thin Films

    Author : David Huy Trinh; Hans Högberg; Anders Hårsta; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Alumina; Zirconia; NaKeywords: Alumina; Zirconia; Nanocomposite; Sputtering; Thin-Film; PVD; TEM; EELS; Materials science; Teknisk materialvetenskap;

    Abstract : Alumina-Zirconia thin films were grown on a range of substrates using dual magnetron sputtering. Film growth was achieved at a relatively low temperature of 450 °C and at higher temperatures up to 810 °C. The films were grown on well-defined surfaces such as silicon (100) but also on industrially relevant substrates such as hardmetal (WC-Co). READ MORE

  4. 2. Continuous Fibre Reinforced Oxide/Oxide Composites

    Author : Magnus Holmquist; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; polycrystalline oxide fibre; zirconia; single crystal oxide fibre; hot isostatic pressing; hot pressing; alumina; mullite; sapphire; tape casting; interface; VibroIntrusion; interphase; continuous fibre reinforced ceramic composite; mechanical properties; oxide fibre; ceramic matrix composite;

    Abstract : The appealing properties of ceramics include retention of strength and hardness at high temperatures, chemical inertness and low density. However, monolithic ceramics fail in a brittle, unpredictable manner making them unsuitable for many applications where reliability is a key requirement. READ MORE
