have varied uses in tool, heavy duty as well as microelectronic industries, The fractural …

Nanomechanical resonator-based sensing devices are used in medical diagnostics based
on their high-frequency dynamic behavior. Cantilevers fall into the category of …

Medical diagnostics and, to a lesser extent, pharmacy is two of the most prominent
applications of organic conducting polymers (CPs). Polymers that conduct electricity, such …

Two different types of lead‐free solder joints Cu/(Sn3. 0Ag0. 5Cu)/Cu and Cu/Sn/(Sn3.
0Ag0. 5Cu)/Sn/Cu have been investigated. Joints are produced following the transient liquid …

In this study, AlTiN (monolayer) and CrN/AlTiN (bilayer) coatings are deposited on the
surface of conventional heat-treated AISI H11 steel which is then nitrided by cathodic arc …

The article has provided a novel way of finding the probability of fracture (P f) based on
modifications of some established concepts. It has also discussed ductile to brittle as well as …

Abstract Silicon Oxynitride (Si-ON) is basically a polymer derived ceramic (PDC) having
good fracture toughness and high temperature stability used in aerospace, sensing …

Hard coatings safeguard machines from wear and abrasion and reduce energy loss in a
variety of industrial sectors. The crystalline growth morphology on the surface, particularly at …

Ti based composites and coatings in the form of TiAl-TaN and TiBSiC were analyzed by
means of nanoindentation and scratch tests. The variation of TaN wt% in TiAl was found to …

Hard coatings like Titanium diboride (TiB 2) on silicon substrates which are used for
interconnects. micro-electro-mechanical devices and metallurgical protective coatings were …
