in this paper, the evidences and remnants of archaeometallurgical activities in elamite site of haft tappeh (14th century bc) have investigated and identification of archaeometallurgical materials have been done based on analytical investigations. sem-eds analysis and metallography were used to identify the chemical composition and microstructural features of archaeometallurgical materials in h...

A Cr13Ni5Si2-based composite coating was successfully deposited on copper by pulse laser induction hybrid cladding (PLIC), and its high-temperature wear behavior was investigated. Temperature evolutions associated with crack behaviors in PLIC were analyzed and compared with pulse laser cladding (PLC) using the finite element method. The microstructure and present phases were analyzed using scan...

Bioreduction of ferric iron-rich wastes is a rapidly emerging technology for the extraction/ recovery of metals from low-grade ores and metallurgical wastes. However, despite studies being successful, they have only been demonstrated at laboratory scale and issues relating to economic, industrial scale application have yet to be studied. Using bioreduction as a pre-treatment to increase recover...

There are three areas to consider when designing/implementing wire bonding to advanced ULSI damascene–copper chips having copper metallization and low dielectric-constant polymers embedded beneath them (Cu/LoK). These are: 1) the copper-pad top-surface oxidation inhibitor coatingmetal/organic/inorganic. (Current work involves evaluating the metal and inorganic options); 2) the low dielectric co...
