Fractography is a powerful but underutilized tool for the analysis of fractured glasses and ceramics. Fractography can identify the cause of failure and can even provide quantitative information about the loading conditions. The goal of this Guide is to
A study is made of veneer failure by cracking in all-ceramic crown-like layer structures. Model trilayers consisting of a 1 mm thick external glass layer (veneer) joined to a 0.5 mm thick inner stiff and hard ceramic support layer (core) by epoxy bonding

Subsolidus phase relations have been determined for the Bi-Co-Nb-O system in air (750 C to 925 C). Ternary compound formation was limited to pyrochlore (A2B 2O 6O ), which formed a substantial solid solution region at Bi-deficient stoichiometries (relative

Single stranded DNA oligomers (ssDNA) immobilized onto solid surfaces forms the basis for several biotechnological applications such as DNA microarrays, affinity separations, and biosensors. The surface structure of the surface-bound oligomers is expected

We measured the interfacial friction of a series of alkylsilanes with chain lengths from C5 to C30 on silicon (100) surfaces using an Atomic Force Microscope (AFM). The dependence of the friction on chain length exhibits an optimum curvature with C12
