The microstructure of dendritic titanium carbides fabricated by laser surface alloying of pure titanium with graphite powder is investigated using electron probe microanalyzer (EPMA) and high-resolution transmission electron microscope (HRTEM). The growth mechanism of TiC crystals is that...

A quantitatively kinetic model has been established to address the self-assembly of the ring shaped nanostructures upon the droplet epitaxy via kinetic Monte Carlo simulations. The theoretical predictions about the temperature and As flux dependences of the self-assembly of the ring shaped...

ZnO nanoneedle arrays were obtained from the transformation of ZnC2O4 precipitate, which was synthesized via electrodeposited method at room temperature. The diameter of those grown ZnO nanoneedles is about 80 nm. The XRD pattern and the HRTEM image indicate that the grown ZnO nanoneedles have...
