International researcher team presents a novel microstructure design strategy for lean medium-manganese steels with optimized properties in the journal Science
Understanding the deformation mechanisms observed in high performance materials, such as superalloys, allows us to design strategies for the development of materials exhibiting enhanced performance. In this project, we focus on the combination of structural information gained from electron microscopy and compositional measurements from atom probe…
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…
Deviations from the ideal, stoichiometric composition of tcp (tetrahedrally close-packed) intermetallic phases as, e.g., Laves phases can be partially compensated by point defects like antisite atoms or vacancies, but also planar defects may offer an opportunity to accommodate excess atoms.
We plan to investigate the rate-dependent tensile properties of 2D materials such as metal thin films and PbMoO4 (PMO) films by using a combination of a novel plan-view FIB based sample lift out method and a MEMS based in situ tensile testing platform inside a TEM.
