Synthesis and Characterization of Aluminium Foams
Aluminium foams are prospective class of cell materials that offer a variety of applications in fields such as lightweight structures or crash-energy management. Due to interesting combination of physical and mechanical properties, such as high stiffness at low density, high impact energy absorption, flame and heat resistance, sound absorption, aluminium …
Ion Beam Modification of Surfaces in the Nanoscale Domain
Ion beam sputtering induces morphological as well as compositional changes on the surfaces of ion-sputtered substrates. The surface undergoes kinetic processes, which lead to different morphological details: periodic ripples, substrate-defined etch pits or protuberant structures, roughening and smoothing are some possibilities for surface evolution. The aim of my doctoral dissertation …
