CAREER: Manufacturing of Mechanically Stable Nanoporous Ceramic Structures Via Selective Infiltration of Polymer Templates

Data management plan for the grant, "CAREER: Manufacturing of Mechanically Stable Nanoporous Ceramic Structures Via Selective Infiltration of Polymer Templates." This Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) grant from the National Science Foundation supports fundamental research to elucidate a new strategy of manufacturing nanoporous ceramic structures with controllable structure and composition and programmable mechanical stability. The specific goal of this research is to discover processing-structure-property relationships in ceramic coatings and heterostructures by providing fundamental insights on the mechanism of liquid phase swelling-based infiltration of spin-coated polymer templates with inorganic precursors and defining the rules that control the resulting structure and, thus, access to various materials surfaces and interfaces.

Design approaches for printability-performance synergy in Al alloys for laser-powder bed additive manufacturing (open access)

Design approaches for printability-performance synergy in Al alloys for laser-powder bed additive manufacturing

This article highlights that design of Al alloys for laser-powder bed fusion (L-PBF) can lead to fundamental change in the microstructure evolution, proposed alloy design strategies lead to synergy between and printability and performance, hierarchical and heterogeneous microstructures have potential to overcome the strength-ductility tradeoff, and alloy design incorporating the specific attributes of an AM technology is crucial to maximizing its potential.

High entropy alloys – Tunability of deformation mechanisms through integration of compositional and microstructural domains (open access)

High entropy alloys – Tunability of deformation mechanisms through integration of compositional and microstructural domains

This article is a review that categorizes the compositional and microstructural approaches that exhibit potential for a combination of shear induced phase transformation and twinning, thereby expanding beyond the slip based mechanisms.

Bioresorbable stent to manage congenital heart defects in children (open access)

Bioresorbable stent to manage congenital heart defects in children

This article assembles large, pediatric-sized stents (Ø10 - Ø20 mm) from poly(L-lactide) fibers (DH-BDS) at two thicknesses, 250 µm and 300 µm. DH-BDS exhibiting hoop strength similar to metal stents and demonstrating minimal degradation and strength loss over the first year before completely disappearing within 3 to 4.5 years show promise as a pediatric interventional alternative to current strategies.

Carrier photodynamics in 2D perovskites with solution-processed silver and graphene contacts for bendable optoelectronics (open access)

Carrier photodynamics in 2D perovskites with solution-processed silver and graphene contacts for bendable optoelectronics

Article reporting on the inkjet printed, direct contact study of solution-processed, 2D perovskite-based photodetectors (PDs) formed on flexible PI substrates. Silver (Ag) and graphene (Gr) inks have been engineered to serve as efficient electrical contacts for solution-processed two-dimensional (2D) organo-halide (CH3(CH2)3NH3)2(CH3NH3)n−1PbnI3n+1 (n = 4) layered perovskites, where all inkjet-printed heterostructure PDs were fabricated on polyimide (PI) substrates.
