Sol-gel manufacturing can be used to create various high-performance solids including glasses and ceramics. In the field of glass production, sol-gel techniques are a reliable low-temperature ...
Materials having structures and sizes that fall within the range of 1 to 100 nm are referred to as nanostructured materials. Nanostructured materials are associated with a diversity of uses within the ...
Researchers at the Chinese University of Hong Kong have fabricated a tunable distributed-feedback (DFB) laser from a thin-film sol-gel glass waveguide, (App.Phys.Lett. 80 917). Dennis Lo and Xiao-lei ...
Biaxially textured Nickel tapes with (100) cubic texture were oxidized to form NiO as alternative buffer layers for sol-gel YbBa2Cu3 O7-δ (YbBCO) coated conductors. YbBCO films were prepared from ...
Porous hydroxyapatite has been accepted that due to its unfavourable mechanical properties it cannot be used under load bearing purposes. For this reason hydroxyapatite has been used as thin film ...
