   Abstract : The objective of this study is to make use of transition metal silicides in a novel way as protective thin films on engineering metals. It can then be possible to take advantage of the potentially good corrosion resistance of metal silicides while compensating for their brittle nature by the ductile bulk material. READ MORE

4. 2. Fabrication and Corrosion Properties of Nickel Silicides Thin Films

   Author : Eric Tam; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; nickel silicides; ion-beam sputter deposition; potentiodynamic polarisation measurements; X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy; corrosion.; thin films;

   Abstract : Surface engineering is a vital issue in engineering materials design. The enhancement of surface properties extends the materials lifetime and improves the materials performance without changing the bulk properties. Thin film deposition is one of the most commonly applied techniques in this field. READ MORE
