The most critical parameter for hot cracking -from a metallurgical point of view- is the chemical composition of the weld pool. Chemical composition can be measured and quantified during the welding process with the LIBS technique having the appropriate calibration measurements.

Therefore, there is a need for stable materials which can easily withstand temperatures up to 1000°C for long periods in different atmospheres. Ceramic materials have been drawing attention due to their excellent properties. This work aimed at investigating the high-temperature stability of zirconia and alumina ceramic springs at elevated temperatures under different atmospheres (air, N2 and H2) in order to determine the limitation of use of these ceramic springs.

T1 - Hochauflösende Reinheitsgradbestimmung – Fertigung von Referenzfehlern N2 - Regelwerke zur zerstörungsfreien Bestimmung des Reinheitsgrades wie das SEP 1927 und die ASTM E588 erreichen ihre Vergleichbarkeit unter Anwendung von - vergleichsweise einfachen - Referenzfehlern. Hinsichtlich Realisierbarkeit wird somit der Kompromiss zwischen Herstellung des Referenzfehlers und der erreichbaren Nachweisgrenze gefunden. Zur Weiterentwicklung über die Grenzen der SEP1927 hinaus, wurde der Versuch unternommen Fehler kleiner 500 μm herzustellen - welche aufgrund der geringen geometrischen Ausdehnung fertigungsbedingt schwierig zu realisieren sind. Bei den vergleichenden Untersuchungen kristallisierten sich zwei Fertigungsverfahren, Funkenerosion (EDM: electrical discharge maching) und die Fertigung der Bohrungen unter Verwendung eines Hochleistungslasers, als vielversprechend heraus. Zunächst wurden die Fehler mit beiden Verfahren in unterschiedlichen Größen (100, 250 und 100 μm) und Tiefen (1, 1,5 und 2 mm) unter Anwendung von computertomographischen Verfahren der Röntgenprüfung, die Geometrie der eingebrachten Fehlstellen und anschließend durch hochauflösende Tauchtechnikmessungen das Reflektionsverhalten charakterisiert.

A plethora of hybrid inorganic/organic copolymers were synthesized, including hybrid inorganic/organic block copolymers as well as random copolymers,[1–4] that showed great potential in fabricating hybrid (nano)materials with tailored properties [5]. Two widely employed RDRP techniques to prepare such hybrid inorganic/organic copolymers are atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) [1,2] and reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization [3,4]. In order, to afford hybrid inorganic/organic copolymers with narrow dispersity, high conversions and precise structures, it is required to choose proper reaction conditions. Due to the importance of both ATRP and RAFT in the preparation of such hybrid polymers, we aim to compare both RDRP techniques by preparing 2-acetoxyethyl methacrylate (AcEMA) and 3-(triethoxysilyl)propyl methacrylate (TESPMA) based homopolymers. For this purpose, AcEMA and TESPMA were polymerized in 1,4-dioxane at 60 °C mediated by CuBr/N,N,N',N'-pentamethyldiethylenetriamine (PMDETA) and 2-(2-carboxylethylsulfanylthiocarbonyl-sufanyl) propionic acid (TTC) as well as cumyl dithiobenzoate (CDB) to evaluate the suitability and reliability of ATRP and RAFT to prepare such hybrid (co)polymers.

Wird ein solches Material unter die Curie Temperatur abgekühlt, zerfällt es spontan in nahezu selbstgesättigte magnetische Domänen. Diese Magnetisierung führt gleichzeitig zu einer Verformung der mit ihr gekoppelten Kristallgitter. Ein Effekt der auch reziprok gilt: wird die Gitterverformung durch eine Spannung behindert ändert sich zwangsweise der magnetische Zustand. Man kann annehmen, dass zwischen unterschiedlichen, für sich aber homogen verspannten Werkstoffbereichen, lokale magnetische Streufelder auftreten, weil magneto-mechanische Effekte eine Inkompatibilität der Domänenstruktur induzieren. Bekanntlich bilden sich Spannungsgradienten nach Schweißprozessen durch ungleichmäßigen Wärmeeintrag, thermischer Dehnung, und unterschiedlichen Abkühlraten aus. Unter dieser Prämisse untersuchen wir Wolfram-Inertgas geschweißte Blindnahtproben (250x100x4,8 mm^3) aus einem hypereutektoiden Baustahl. Der Spannungszustand der Proben wurde anhand von Neutronendiffraktometrie (ND) am Instrument E3 am Reaktor BERII (Helmholzzentrum Berlin, HZB) charakterisiert. ND ist ein Referenzverfahren für die quantitative Bestimmung von elastischen Dehnungen in kristallinen Materialien, deren Gitter selbst der Messmaßstab ist. Die Auswertung zeigt hohe Längsspannungen mit lokalen Maxima in Größenordnung von 600 MPa, die von umgebenen Druckspannungszonen kompensiert werden. Zur Detektion der magnetischen Kleinststreufelder verwenden wir speziell designte GMR-Sensorik (GMR - Giant Magneto Resistance), die aufgrund der geringen Größe ihrer aktiven Sensorelemente hohe Ortsauflösung mit Sensitivität vereint. Die Visualisierung der Messergebnisse lässt eine klare magnetische Mikrostruktur der Schweißnähte erkennen, in der die Streufelder lateral in Größenordnung des Erdmagnetfeldes variieren (~50 µT). Wir zeigen durch einen Vergleich beider Messverfahren, dass lokale magnetische Streufeldmaxima in hohem Maße mit den Spannungsgradienten übereinstimmen.

T1 - Core-shell- Nd3+ - doped upconversion nanoparticles with enhanced luminescence properties for bioanalytical applications N2 - Upconversion nanoparticles are characterized by their ability to convert low energy near-infrared excitation in high energy emissions in the visible range. This is enabled by sequential absorption of two or more photons via energy transfer from the sensitizer lanthanide ion Yb3+ to an activator lanthanide ion, e.g. Er3+. Yb3+ sensitation has the advantage of 980 nm excitation achieved by commercial available low power cw laser modules. Nevertheless, for some applications, especially in aqueous media, which is predominantely in bioanalytical applications, there is the drawback of a local Absorption maximum of water at this wavelength. Sample heating can occur, and excitation power density is strongly distance dependent. To overcome this issue, the idea is to shift the excitation wavelength to 808 nm. This can be achieved by a tandem-excitation using Nd3+ and Yb3+ ions. Nd3+ gets excited by 808 nm irradiation and transfers the energy to Yb3+, which triggers the upconversion emission of the Er3+ ions. Therefore, it is mandatory to separate Nd3+ and Er3+ by core-shell architecture for reducing the energy backtransfer from Er3+ to Nd3+. To further enhance the upconversion luminescence an additional inert shell formed by the host material NaYF4 reduces the quenching effects caused by surface defects and dangling bonds.

T1 - Measurement of porous TiO2 layers with spectroscopic ellipsometry - a multi-method study N2 - By means of an effective medium (EMA) based approach, it is possible to use spectroscopic ellipsometry to determine the mixing ratios between air and material in porous dielectrics and calculate a quantitative value of the porosity for these materials. As this method is model-based, it is very difficult to provide a quantitative measure for the accuracy of porosity values determined by this method. Valuable additional information can often be obtained by combining ellipsometry with other complementary methods. In the present study, the ellipsometry results were validated by Electron Probe Microanalysis (EPMA) with the option of layer analysis (by the socalled “STRATAGem” approach), gravimetry, and electron microscopy. We analysed porous TiO2 thin layers synthesised by means of a template synthesis Approach (evaporation induced self assembly). Ellipsometry measurements on porous samples are difficult to analyse due to the complexity of the models necessary. Often it is difficult to decide if the measured data contains enough information to successfully determine the target quantities (mixing ratio, dielectric function of the matrix material). One method to decrease the complexity of the fit and therefore use the measurement data most efficiently is a multi-sample analysis. In the present case, multi-sample analysis was used for determining the porosity factors of the individual layers while using one common set of dielectric function values for the matrix in all cases. While the results of the fit analysis in this case can be used to show the feasibility and also the limitations of the multi-method approach, the porosity values themselves show a promising agreement between the Independent methods. It can therefore be concluded that determining porosity values with ellipsometry is in accordance to other methods to the level of accuracy provided by the complementary methodologies.
