Linear magnetron high deposition rate magnet pack for high power impulse magnetron sputtering
High Power Impulse Magnetron Sputtering (HiPIMS) or High Power Pulsed Magnetron Sputtering (HPPMS) is a magnetron sputtering method that has proven to be a promising ionized physical vapor deposition (PVD) technique, with industrial implementation hindered by low deposition rates. HiPIMS applies …

Reconstructing deglacial ocean ventilation using radiocarbon : data and inverse modeling
… to constrain deglacial ocean ventilation rates, using new data, an extensive data compilation, and inverse modeling. First, based on a sediment core that is absolutely dated from wooden remains, I argue that the deglacial 14C reservoir age of the upper East Equatorial Pacific was not very …

Plasma diagnostics and ITO film deposition by RF-assisted closed-field dual magnetron system
Deposition of indium tin oxide (ITO) among various transparent conductive materials on flexible organic substrates has been intensively investigated among academics and industrials for a whole new array of imaginative optoelectronic products. One critical challenge coming with the organic materials …

An Investigation of Polymer Support Structures In Metal Directed Energy Deposition
Metal directed energy deposition (DED) can create complex components and has a high deposition rate compared to other metal additive manufacturing (AM) processes. As a result, DED is of interest to die and mold, energy, and aerospace industries, among others. However, the design space of DED is …

Modeling and experimental process optimization for a SiH4 + H2 surface wave plasma discharge for silicon photovoltaics
A surface wave plasma source was used for the deposition of amorphous (a-Si) and nanocrystalline (nc-Si) silicon thin films for the manufacture of silicon solar cells. This source was optimized for 900 MHz microwave excitation. The process gases used were silane (SiH4) and hydrogen (H2). The plasma …

Probabilistic source-to-sink analysis of the provenance of the California paleoriver: implications for the early Eocene paleogeography of western North America
… relationships to catchment area. We demonstrate that average discharge is a flow of variable magnitude and recurrence interval in rivers with different hydrology, and that at higher magnitudes of discharge, especially 99th percentile discharge and higher, the discharge yields and recurrence …
