TEM study on the electrical discharge machined surface of single-crystal silicon (2013)
Journal Article
Murray, J., Fay, M., Kunieda, M., & Clare, A. (2013). TEM study on the electrical discharge machined surface of single-crystal silicon. Journal of Materials Processing Technology, 213(5), https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jmatprotec.2012.11.028

EDM is a useful process for machining high-aspect ratio features with good accuracy in electrically conductive materials irrespective of their mechanical properties. With the ability of micro-EDM to compete with the resolution of conventional semi-co... Read More about TEM study on the electrical discharge machined surface of single-crystal silicon.

Surface finishing of intricate metal mould structures by large-area electron beam irradiation (2013)
Journal Article
Murray, J., Kinnell, P., Cannon, A., Bailey, B., & Clare, A. (2013). Surface finishing of intricate metal mould structures by large-area electron beam irradiation. Precision Engineering, 37(2), https://doi.org/10.1016/j.precisioneng.2012.11.007

The advancement of polymer moulding tools is increasingly focused on imparting not only form but also surface texture for functionality to the surfaces of parts that are created. Furthermore, the increasing demand for inexpensive and higher quality m... Read More about Surface finishing of intricate metal mould structures by large-area electron beam irradiation.

Amorphous layer formation in Al86.0Co7.6Ce6.4 glass-forming alloy by large-area electron beam irradiation (2013)
Journal Article
Li, C., Murray, J., Voisey, K., Clare, A., & McCartney, D. (2013). Amorphous layer formation in Al86.0Co7.6Ce6.4 glass-forming alloy by large-area electron beam irradiation. Applied Surface Science, 280, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.apsusc.2013.05.005

Amorphous Al-Co-Ce alloys are of interest because of their resistance to corrosion, but high cooling rates are generally required to suppress the formation of crystalline phases. In this study, the surface of a bulk crystalline Al-Co-Ce alloy of a gl... Read More about Amorphous layer formation in Al86.0Co7.6Ce6.4 glass-forming alloy by large-area electron beam irradiation.
