Fast Deposition of Silicon Nitride and Aluminum Nitride on Nickel Titanium Substrates Using an Expanding Thermal Arc

摘要

This report results from a contract tasking Eindhoven University of Technology as follows: The contractor will investigate the feasibility of depositing SiNx or AlNx on substrates such as Ti or NiTi alloys. He will deliver samples of deposition. Also. he will transfer technology to USAF scientists at Wright Lab in Dayton Ohio.
