Abstract: This article is written as a tribute to Professor Frederick Fongsun Ling 1927–2014. Single-point diamond machining, a subset of a broader class of processes characterized as ultraprecision machining, is used for the creation ...

Abstract: Single crystal Ge is a semiconductor that has broad applications, especially in manipulation of infrared light. Diamond machining enables the efficient production of surfaces with tolerances required by the optical industry. ...

Abstract: Nanoindentation experiments with a Berkovich indenter and a spherical indenter were performed to study the effects of annealing at temperatures below the glass transition temperature and room temperature ion irradiation ...

Abstract: Abstract. On-axis single point diamond turning experiments were conducted on (100)Ge to investigate the relation between the direction of the resultant force and the surface topography. This was done by measuring cutting ...
