Abstract Based on advanced plasma deposition technology with both DC and RF plasmas DLR Stuttgart has developed a concept of a planar SOFC with consecutive deposition of all layers of a thin‐film cell onto a porous metallic substrate support. This concept is an alternative approach to conventionally used sintering tec…

A two-stage technology of compaction of ultrafine-dispersed diamonds (UDDs) is developed and successfully applied for ampoule-free sintering of dense UDD granules in lead under a pressure of up to 100 GPa. Standard strength tests of polycrystals (fractions 80/63, 125/80) thus obtained showed a wide spread in strength…

Abstract While existing solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) technology has demonstrated much higher energy efficiency with minimal pollutant emission than the conventional technologies, the costs of the current SOFC systems are still prohibitive for broad commercialization. To be economically competitive, both the cost of ma…

Abstract The effect of neutron flux level is a longstanding concern for determining the applicability of test reactor data or high lead-factor surveillance data to the prediction of embrittlement in commercial reactor pressure vessels (RPV). However, as operating reactors reach higher fluences, the question of flux ef…

The subpeak was first observed in glassy Fe−Al ribbons. The origin of the subpeak is not due to the system size, but it is consequence of the occurrence of local atomic structural order. The usual stability of undercooled liquids against crystallization is explained by means of local atomic structural order. Direct ex…
