Abstract: Nano-electromachining (nano-EM) is a process in which electric fields applied across sub-20 nm tool-workpiece gaps in organic dielectrics (n-decane C10H22 and n-undecane C12H26) are used to produce ...

Abstract: Hydroxyapatite, a calcium phosphate ceramic, is chemically similar to bone mineral and one of the few materials able to produce direct-bonding osteogenesis. Nanostructured hydroxyapatite coating ...

Abstract: Surface defects generated by grinding deteriorate the flexural strength of the silicon nitride (Si3N4) ceramic. In this paper, CO2 laser surface processing was applied to eliminate the grinding-induced ...

Abstract: Cubic boron nitride coatings are under development for a variety of applications but stabilization of the pure CBN form and adhesion of films deposited by PVD and ion-based methods have been ...
