    Rao, Jeff; Cruz, R.; Lawson, K. J.; Nicholls, John R. (2004-11-01)
    Titanium Diboride, (TiB2) is a metal-based refractory ceramic material that has been investigated in industrial applications ranging from, cutting tools to wear parts and for use in the aerospace industry. The unique ...
  • Low temperature ITO thin film deposition for solar cells 
    Seraffon, Maud (Cranfield University, 2008-09)
    The electrical and optical properties as well as the microstructure of indium tin oxide thin films deposited on glass and flexible substrates is demonstrated in this project report. This project is a part of an MSc in ...
  • Methods to reduce the thermal conductivity of EB-PVD TBCs. 
    Nicholls, John R.; Lawson, K. J.; Johnstone, A.; Rickerby, David S. (Elsevier Science B.V., Amsterdam., 2002-03-01)
    This paper reviews the advantages and disadvantages of various thermal barrier coating (TBC) systems, with the aim of custom designing a TBC system to be both strain tolerant and have a low thermal conductivity. Methods ...
  • Nickel titanium and nickel titanium hafnium shape memory alloy thin films 
    Rao, Jeff; Roberts, T,; Lawson, K. J.; Nicholls, John R. (Elsevier Science B.V., Amsterdam., 2010-04-01)
    Shape memory alloy (SMA) coatings of NiTi and NiTiHf have been deposited onto Si substrates using pulse DC sputtering. Coatings of NiTi with compositions containing 45 to 65 at.% Ti have been fabricated by co-sputtering ...
  • Protein adsorption on heterogeneous surfaces 
    Aggarwal, Nitesh; Lawson, K. J.; Kershaw, Matthew; Horvath, R.; Ramsden, Jeremy J. (American Institute of Physics, 2009)
    The adsorption of the protein bovine serum albumin from an aqueous solution onto substrata made from pure silica, pure zirconia, and a mixture of the two has revealed that the adsorption behavior of the protein onto the ...
  • TiB2 ceramic and DLC Multilayered PVD coatings 
    Santos da Silva Cruz, Ricardo Manuel (Cranfield University, 2007)
