    Crystal orientation and growth anisotropy of YBa2Cu3O6+x fabricated by directional solidification method

    The unidirectional solidification by a zone-melting method was performed to investigate the growth anisotropy of YBa2Cu3O6+x (123) superconductive oxides. Large faceted interfaces were obtained at growth rates lo...

    NdBCO melting and solidification by a zone-melting method

    In the Nd-Ba-Cu-O system, a directional structure produced by a peritectic reaction has been observed. On heating, the sintered Nd1Ba2Cu3O6+δ (Ndl23) precursor formed a rod-like directional structure of Nd4Ba2Cu2

    What Xe Nanocrystals in Al Can Teach us in Materials Science

    Noble gases are generally very insoluble in solids. For example, Xe implanted into Al at 300 K forms a fine dispersion of crystalline precipitates and, at large enough fluence, fluid precipitates, both of whic...
