Tailoring surface interactions, contact angles, drop topologies and self-assembly using laser irradiation

, 2012
UV laser irradiation (lambda = 193 nm), below and above damage thresholds, is used to both alter and pattern the surface properties of borosilicate slides to tune and control the contact angle of a water drop over the surface.

Picosecond laser machined designed patterns with anti-ice effect [PDF]

, 2010
Micromachining using ultra short laser pulses (USLP) has evolved over the past years as a versatile tool for introducing functional features in surfaces at a micrometric and even at a sub wavelength scale.

Scanning-electron-microscopy observations and mechanical characteristics of ion-beam-sputtered surgical implant alloys [PDF]

An electron bombardment ion thruster was used as an ion source to sputter the surfaces of orthopedic prosthetic metals. Scanning electron microscopy photomicrographs were made of each ion beam textured surface.

Influence of texture on the switching behavior of Pb(Zr0.70Ti0.30)O3 sol-gel derived thin films [PDF]

, 2017
Rhombohedral Pb(Zr0.70Ti0.30)O3 thin films of four different well-defined textures, namely, (100), (111), bimodal (110)/(111), and (100)/(111), were prepared by a sol-gel method.

Polaron relaxation in ferroelectric thin films

, 2012
We report a dielectric relaxation in ferroelectric thin films of the ABO3 family. We have compared films of different compositions with several growth modes: sputtering (with and without magnetron) and sol-gel.

Ultra-low strain hysteresis in BaTiO3-based piezoelectric multilayer actuators via microstructural texture engineering

Journal of Materiomics
Piezoelectric multilayer actuators (MLAs) possess unique advantages of lower driving voltages and more compact structures than bulk ceramic actuators. However, the internal electrode layers in MLAs inevitably weaken the output and result in relatively ...

Ultrasonic imaging of textured alumina [PDF]

Ultrasonic images representing the bulk attenuation and velocity of a set of alumina samples were obtained by a pulse-echo contact scanning technique. The samples were taken from larger bodies that were chemically similar but were processed by extrusion ...

Enhanced electrical performance in CaBi4Ti4O15 ceramics through synergistic chemical doping and texture engineering

Journal of Materiomics
High-temperature piezoelectric materials with excellent piezoelectricity, low dielectric loss and large resistivity are highly desired for many industrial sectors such as aerospace, aircraft and nuclear power. Here a synergistic design strategy combining
