... optical chip is embedded in a sintered SiC tube assembly, forming a coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) matched all-SiC front-end probe. Because chip and host material are CTE matched, optimal handling of extreme thermal ramps and temperatures is possible. In this article, we demonstrate the first...

...T. Fujii; T. Takahashi Thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) have become an indispensable technology as the temperature of turbine inlet gas has increased. TBCs reduce the temperature of the base metal, but a reduction of internal pores by sintering occurs when using TBCs, and so the thermal barrier...

...G. Woetting; B. Caspers; E. Gugel; R. Westerheide Due to promising results in literature, SiC - Si 3 N 4 particle composites in the range 0–100 percent SiC were evaluated. Focusing on high-temperature properties, mainly Y 2 O 3 was used as sintering additive. Consolidation occurred primarily by hot...
