This report contains the introduction to the proceedings of the 2001 National Educators Workshop, planned for October 16-18, 2001 at NIST. More than one hundred fifty participants from academic, industrial, and government organizations, as well as local

Proceedings of the 13th IEEE International Symposium on Applications of Ferroelectrics

February 19, 2017

Author(s)

Grady S. White, T Tsurumi

The International Joint Conference on the Application of Ferroelectrics (IFFF 2003) united the 13th IEEE International Symposium on the Application of Ferroelectrics (ISAF-XIII), the 14th International Symposium on Integrated Ferroelectrics (ISIF-XIV) and

Proton Spin-Spin Relaxation of Water Molecules in a Gel Binder and Ceramic Blend

February 19, 2017

Author(s)

P S. Wang

Water molecules interactions in a agarose gel used as a ceramic binder and ceramic blends were studied by proton spin-spin relaxation. Nuclear spin echo signals of agar powder, water/agar gels, and gel/alumina blends were measured using a (π/2)-τ-π-τ-echo

Raman Stress Evaluation: Hydrostatic vs. Biaxial Calibration

February 19, 2017

Author(s)

L M. Braun, Grady S. White

Comparisons of two technical approaches for stress measurement based on the peak shifts associated with micro-Raman spectra are described. Stress values were obtained from evaluation of the relationship between peak shift and stress determined by both a

Rapid Detection of Thin-Film Interfacial Reactions by MEMS-DSC

February 19, 2017

Author(s)

Lawrence P. Cook, Richard E. Cavicchi, Yanbao Zhang, Mark D. Vaudin, Christopher B. Montgomery, William F. Egelhoff Jr., Martin L. Green, Leslie Allen

A MEMS-based differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) has been used to characterize the Ni/Si interfacial reaction in thin films at ramp rates of 940 C/s and 3760 C/s. The DSC devices were fabricated using CMOS semiconductor processing technology, and were

Reduction in Interfacial Sliding Shear Resistance From Abrasive Wear in SiC Fiber-Reinforced Ceramics Composite

February 19, 2017

Author(s)

Lin-Sien H. Lum, Y Kagawa

Interface wear behavior and its effects on frictional sliding shear resistance in fiber-reinforced ceramics was studied using a SiC fiber (SCS-6) - Al 20 3 matrix composite. Thin specimen pushout tests were performed and the wear behavior of the protruded

Relationship Between Microstructure and Wear of Dental Ceramics and Composite Resins

February 19, 2017

Author(s)

V S. Nagarajan, S Jahanmir, B Hockey, Victoria Thompson

The effect of microstructure on the wear mechanisms of glass-ceramics and resin composites was studied. Wear tests on both types of materials were conducted using a pin-on-disk apparatus. Wear of glass-ceramics increased with increasing mica platelet
