A promising method for low cost production of efficient silicon thin film solar cells is the electron beam physical vapor deposition (EB-PVD) of high purity amorphous silicon (a-Si) layers with high deposition rates up to 300 nm/s [1] followed by crystallization. This study focuses on EB ... Read More
The recently developed technique Scanning Tunneling Microscopy in the Field Emission regime (STM FE) is based on the Russell Young's topografiner technology. The set-up is a no contacting device consisting of a sharp tip approached vertically to a conducting surface at variable distances ... Read More
The Geoenvironmental Engineering Group of the University of Castilla-La Mancha is developing a computational tool, M4B, for describing the influence of environmental loads on the deformation behavior of soils and its interaction with building foundations. This tool comprises a set of ... Read More
We have developed a small environmental chamber to expose a sample to adjustable climate conditions. This climate chamber will be used as sample environment for small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) experiments. SANS is a favorable measuring method, to explore structural changes on the ... Read More
Crystallization phenomena are of first interest in several industrial applications (polymer forming processes, metallurgy, phase change flow, energy storage...). A classical way to model the crystallization evolution is using the Nakamura kinetics law. In this paper, a novel physics ... Read More
High power CO2 lasers have been the workhorses for sheet metal cutting, welding and many more applications in materials processing during the past decades. Even though a significant replacement by fiber coupled lasers takes place, there are still many applications that benefit from the ... Read More
The acoustic scattering through a circular orifice plate in a duct with low Mach number flow (M=0.1) is computed using the Linearized Navier-Stokes physics interface of COMSOL Multiphysics®. The work by Kierkegaard et al. is extended to account for higher order acoustic modes, i.e., ... Read More
The thermocapillary effect is widely used in microfluidic applications for sensing and actuation and can also be used to generate rigid-body motion. Furthermore, it is possible to cast Marangoni flows to achieve controllable rigid-body motion in 3D space. To this effect, here we present ... Read More
