Nitinol Spinal Vertebrae: A Favorable New Substitute
Scoliosis, kyphosis, and bone fracture are health problems, especially of the elderly throughout the world. The vertebra protects the spinal cord. Any impairment to the vertebra can lead to pain and nervousness. Ni-Ti alloy (Nitinol) helps to resolve the problem by fulfilling such requirements as for strength, durability, resistance to wear, and shockwave damping which is due to the shape memor...
متن کاملThe strength of moissanite
The yield strength of moissanite was investigated at pressures up to 18.3 GPa and temperatures up to 1200 ∞C by analyzing the peak shapes of diffraction lines from a powder sample. At room temperature, the moissanite crystal behaves elastically with increasing pressure up to 13.7 GPa. At higher pressures applied, the sample is yielded; the yield strength of moissanite is determined to be 13.6 G...
متن کاملClinical radiation therapy measurements with a new commercial synthetic single crystal diamond detector
A commercial version of a synthetic single crystal diamond detector (SCDD) in a Schottky diode configuration was recently released as the new type 60019 microDiamond detector (PTW-Freiburg, Germany). In this study we investigate the dosimetric properties of this detector to independently confirm that findings from the developing group of the SCDDs still hold true for the commercial version of t...
متن کاملA First Principles Study of Nickel Defects in Synthetic Diamond
Spin-polarised local density functional cluster calculations are carried out on iso-(S=1/2) lies at the T d site. Ni ? s (S=3/2) is shown to be stable and remains on-site in agreement with experimental results. Donor-acceptor complexes of Ni, namely Ni + i-B ? s , Ni ? s-N + s and Ni + s-B ? s are stable trigonal defects which have a number of gap levels. Optical transitions are expected betwee...
متن کاملGermanium: a new catalyst for diamond synthesis and a new optically active impurity in diamond
Diamond attracts considerable attention as a versatile and technologically useful material. For many demanding applications, such as recently emerged quantum optics and sensing, it is important to develop new routes for fabrication of diamond containing defects with specific optical, electronic and magnetic properties. Here we report on successful synthesis of diamond from a germanium-carbon sy...
