  2. 1. Micromechanical retention and chemical bonding to polycrystalline dental ceramics : studies on aluminum oxide and stabilized zirconium dioxide

    Author : Evaggelia Papia; Malmö högskola; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; alumina; aluminium oxide; bond strength; oxide ceramics; polycrystalline dental ceramics; stabilized zirconium dioxide; Y-TZP; zirconia; adhesive cements;

    Abstract : Det pågår en ständig utveckling av olika dentala material avsedda föratt ersätta förlorad tandsubstans. En materialgrupp som är särskiltintressant är höghållfasta keramiska material, oxidkeramer så somyttriumdioxidstabiliserad tetragonal polykristallin zirkoniumdioxid(Y-TZP). READ MORE

  4. 2. CVD and ALD of Group IV- and V-Oxides for Dielectric Applications

    Author : Katarina Forsgren; Steven George; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Chemistry; CVD; ALD; Dielectric constant; Tantalum oxide; Ta2O5; Zirconium oxide; ZrO2; Hafnium oxide; HfO2; QCM; Kemi; Chemistry; Kemi; Inorganic Chemistry; oorganisk kemi;

    Abstract : Due to the constantly decreasing dimensions of electronic devices, the conventional dielectric material in transistors and capacitors, SiO2, has to be replaced by a material with higher dielectric constant. Some of the most promising candidates are tantalum oxide,Ta2O5, zirconium oxide, ZrO2 and hafnium oxide, HfO2. READ MORE

  5. 3. Electronic Properties of Metal Oxide Films Studied by Core Level Spectroscopy

    Keywords : Physics; electron spectroscopy; metal oxide; chemical vapour deposition; ion insertion; metal organic; band alignment; zirconium; titanium; silicon; high k; Fysik;

    Abstract : In this dissertation core level electron spectroscopy has been employed to study various aspects of metal oxide films grown under ultra-high vacuum conditions. Studies on in situ ion insertion of lithium into thin TiO2 systems were performed. READ MORE

  6. 4. Microstructure of Zirconium Alloys Oxidized in Steam

    Author : Pia Tejland; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; EDX; ADF; TEM; Zircaloy-2; FIB-SEM; STEM; GD-OES; SPP; SEM; Zirconium; HAADF;

    Abstract : Zirconium alloys are widely used in nuclear reactors as fuel cladding tubes because of their low thermal neutron capture cross-section, good corrosion properties and satisfactory mechanical properties. However, the main limiting factor of these materials is the oxidation behavior. READ MORE

  7. 5. Mechanistic Approach to Corrosion of Zirconium by Water - A First Principle Study

    Author : Mikaela Lindgren; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; zirconium; hydrogen pick-up; corrosion; oxygen vacancy; DFT;

    Abstract : Zirconium and zirconium oxides are of major technological importance. There are broad applications for these materials, from fuel cell electrolyte to semiconductors and in hip-implants. In nuclear power plants, zirconium alloys are widely used as cladding material to contain the fission fuel in the reactor cores. READ MORE
