Gel‐derived oxycarbide glasses have atomic network structures similar to that of vitreous silica glass but with carbon‐rich regions consisting of CSi 4 tetrahedra and C–Si–O bonds finely dispersed in the glass. Therefore, oxycarbide glasses exhibit the so‐called “anomalous” hardness behavior, similar to silica‐rich gl…

We have demonstrated that a quaternary Ge–Sn–Sb–Te phase-change recording material obtained by adding Sn to Ge–Sb–Te has a higher crystallization speed than Ge–Sb–Te, and gives a larger erase ratio than Ge–Sb–Te when film thickness is decreased. Static evaluations have shown that a 6-nm-thick quaternary material was c…

A continuous carbon fiber/silicon carbide matrix composite material has been produced by a low‐cost process. In this process the space in a two‐dimensional carbon fiber preform is filled with a SiC powder by a pressure infiltration method. High particle packing densities are achieved within the fiber preform in this w…

The synthesis of Ti 3 SiC 2 by pressureless reactive sintering of Ti/SiC/C mixtures under an Ar atmosphere has been studied using in situ neutron diffraction. The intermediate phases TiC x and Ti 5 Si 3 C x ( x ≤ 1) form first at ∼800–1400°C. These phases are consumed in the formation of Ti 3 SiC 2 , at ∼1500°C. After…
