In ultrathin Cu(In,Ga)Se2 (CIGS) film solar cells, the CdS/CIGS interface may become one of the limiting factors for efficiency. The first step toward reducing the impact of this problem could be a surface treatment process to improve the quality of the front interface. The purpose of this study is to have a better un…

The strengthening mechanism of microalloyed vanadium (V) on eutectoid pearlite steel was investigated from the perspectives of nano-precipitation and lattice strain. The 0.2% proof stress of specimens, isothermally transformed at 873 K, increased by about 160–170 MPa with the addition of 0.1% V. However, the interphas…

The microstructure and tensile behavior of stir zones in the friction stir welded brass plates containing disordered secondary β phase at different heat inputs were investigated. At high heat inputs, β was transformed completely to α, and hence the final microstructure was single-phase. At lower heat inputs, fine β pa…
