Micro/Nano-Scale Investigation on SN Alloys and SNO2 Nanowires
… the intriguing phenomenon of spontaneous Sn whisker growth from Sn / Sn-alloy thin films have bothered, yet also inspired materials scientists for over 60 years. The most commonly seen Sn-containing compound, SnO<sub>2</sub>, is in high demand as well due to its exceptional electronic and …

Formation of salt crystal whiskers on nanoporous coatings and coating onto open celled foam.
Salt crystal whiskers were grown from salt solution saturated nanoporous silica coatings. Coated substrates were partially immersed into an aqueous potassium chloride solution and then kept in a controlled relative humidity chamber for whisker growth. The salt solution was first wicked into the …

Influences of Reaction Parameters on the Product of a Geothermite Reaction: A Multi-Component Oxidation-Reduction Reaction Study
… Electron Microscopy (SEM) showed the presence of whisker networks throughout the microstructure for all reactions conducted in a standard atmosphere. Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS) indicated the presence of aluminum and nitrogen within many of the whiskers. It was hypothesized that many of …
