Effect of LIPSS Formation on Structure and Properties of Ti6Al4V Titanium Alloy
Optics and Laser Technology. 2025. Vol. 181. Article 111931.
1030-nm 320-fs-laser pulses were used to irradiate surface of Ti6Al4V titanium alloy in air and water environments. Laser-induced periodic surface structures (LIPSS) were produced at variable laser fluence F0 = 0.08–1.2 J/cm2 and accompanying changes in topography and elemental/phase composition were studied by SEM, TEM, AFM, and XRD. After high-fluence laser texturing in air, resulting in rough micro-protrusions covered by LIPSS and TiO layer, the microhardness was improved by 25 % and residual tensile stresses detected at a depth of 2.3 μm beneath the structure, reached 150 MPa. Compressive stresses induced by laser texturing at F0 ≤ 0.4 J/cm2 in air were shown to have a minimal effect on fatigue life.

Resonators based on nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS) using two-dimensional (2D) materials with high-quality factors and excellent electrical control are critical for tunable coherent phonon dynamics, resonant sensors and wireless communications. However, their performance is fundamentally limited by the lack of a unified framework governing energy dissipation mechanisms and their electrical tunability. Here, we synergistically modulate both ...

Thermoelectric materials, long explored for energy harvesting and thermal sensing, convert heat directly into electrical signals. Extending their application to the terahertz (THz) frequency range opens opportunities for low-noise, bias-free THz detection, yet conventional thermoelectrics lack the sensitivity required for practical devices. Thermoelectric coefficients can be strongly enhanced near van Hove singularities (VHS), though these ...

This paper investigates one possible solution to the problem of self-interference cancellation (SIC) arising in the design of in-band full-duplex (IBFD) communication systems. Self-interference cancellation is performed in the digital domain using multilayer nonlinear models adapted via gradient-based optimization. The presence of local minima and saddle points during the adaptation of multilayer models limits the ...

We perform a Monte Carlo analysis of the Ising model on many three-dimensional lattices. By means of finite-size scaling we obtain the critical points and determine the scaling dimensions. As expected, the critical exponents agree with the three-dimensional Ising universality class for all models. The irrelevant field, as revealed by the correction-to-scaling amplitudes, appears to ...

Radiation from rotational transitions of CO molecules in distant galaxies creates a chaotic background with an intensity reaching 1000 Jy/sr at a wavelength of approximately 1 mm.

Superplastic Forming is an industrial process to produce thin-walled products of complex shape. At the same time this process allows one to obtain the products with close to uniform thickness distribution. The process exploits the abilities of some polycrystalline materials to large elongations before failure. The best formability can be achieved only under very specific ...
