International researcher team presents a novel microstructure design strategy for lean medium-manganese steels with optimized properties in the journal Science
Within this project we investigate chemical fluctuations at the nanometre scale in polycrystalline Cu(In,Ga)Se2 and CuInS2 thin-flims used as absorber material in solar cells.
This project aims to develop a micromechanical metrology technique based on thin film deposition and dewetting to rapidly assess the dynamic thermomechanical behavior of multicomponent alloys. This technique can guide the alloy design process faster than the traditional approach of fabrication of small-scale test samples using FIB milling and…
The thorough, mechanism-based, quantitative understanding of dislocation-grain boundary interactions is a central aim of the Nano- and Micromechanics group of the MPIE [1-8]. For this purpose, we isolate a single defined grain boundary in micron-sized sample. Subsequently, we measure and compare the uniaxial compression properties with respect to…
