A strategy for accelerated discovery and exploration of multi principal element alloys was developed and used to identify new alloys within a design window of desired microstructures and properties. As an example, the strategy was applied to analyze thousands of 3 4 , 5 and 6 component alloys at equia tomic compositions of the alloying elements. Currently available thermodynamic databases were ...

AIR FORCE INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio APPROVED FOR PUBLIC RELEASE; DISTRIBUTION UNLIMITED ELECTRON PARAMAGNETIC RESONANCE SPECTROSCOPY AND HALL EFFECT STUDIES OF THE EFFECTS OF LOW ENERGY ELECTRON IRRADIATION ON GALLIUM NITRIDE (GAN)

Irradiation effects on the wide-bandgap semiconductor material GaN are of interest to the USAF due to this material’s applicability for a wide range of on-orbit uses. Irradiation is also a valuable tool in analyzing the damage and defect formation dynamics of the material which is of great use in determining and correcting deficiencies in material growth processes. GaN samples representing seve...
