The IrO2-Ta2O5 Coated Titanium Anode for Oxygen Evolution Reaction in Sulfate Solution
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2018:320, Doctoral thesis, 2018)Titanium substrates coated with a conductive layer of metal oxides are well known gas evolving electrodes in the metal electrowinning industry, so-called dimensionally stable anodes (DSAs). DSA electrodes display better ... -
Grain boundary segregation in Pd-Cu-Ag alloys for high permeability hydrogen separation membranes
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Dense metal membranes that are based on palladium (Pd) are promising for hydrogen separation and production due to their high selectivity and permeability. Optimization of alloy composition has normally focused on bulk ... -
Topological domain walls in helimagnets
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Domain walls naturally arise whenever a symmetry is spontaneously broken. They interconnect regions with different realizations of the broken symmetry, promoting structure formation from cosmological length scales to the ... -
The Mechanism Behind the Oxidation Protection of High Mg Al Alloys with Beryllium
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)The addition of beryllium to Al-Mg alloys is known to cause a dramatic decrease in oxidation; however, the mechanism behind this protective effect is not yet fully understood. To aid in finding an alternative to the toxic ... -
Chemical tracer diffusion of Sr and Co in polycrystalline Ca-deficient CaMnO3-δ with CaMn2O4 precipitates
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Diffusivity on the A- and B-site of polycrystalline perovskite CaMnO3-δ with Ca deficiency and spinel CaMn2O4 (marokite) as a secondary phase was studied using chemical tracers and secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) ... -
High piezoelectricity by multiphase coexisting point: Barium titanate derivatives
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)BaTiO3-based lead-free piezoelectric materials have long been known as “a mediocre class of piezoelectric materials.” However, they have seen significant renewed interest in recent years ever since the discovery of high ... -
Achieving dispersed fine soft Bi particles and grain refinement in a hypermonotectic Al-Bi alloy by severe plastic deformation and annealing
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)The present work revealed that equal-channel angular pressing (ECAP) deformation combined with appropriate annealing could represent as an efficient route to modify immiscible as-cast microstructure of a monotectic Al–8Bi ... -
