Nanoindentation Hardness Distribution and Strain Field and Fracture Evolution in Dissimilar Friction Stir-Welded AA 6061-AA 5A06 Aluminum Alloy Joints by Guangjian Peng, Yi Ma, Jiangjiang Hu, Weifeng Jiang, Yong Huan, Zhitong Chen, Taihua Zhang

“…Both DIC and nanoindentation results reveal that the heat-affected zone (HAZ) of AA 6061 alloy is the softest area in the weldment, and the fracture happens in this region. The microstructure evolution characterized by electron-backscatter diffraction (EBSD) indicates that the continuous dynamic recrystallization is the primary grain structure evolution in the stirring zone, and the grain refinement helps improve the mechanical properties. …”

Evaluating Finely Ground Coal Bottom Ash for Property Self-Compacting Concrete by Chun-Wei Chuang, Tai-An Chen

“…The results indicate that FA improves workability and enhances long-term strength development, while FGCBA—despite its lower early-age strength—significantly improves durability, particularly in terms of chloride resistance and microstructural densification. These findings underscore the potential of FGCBA as a viable low-carbon alternative in cementitious systems, contributing to resource efficiency and the achievement of circular economy objectives in the construction sector.…”

Interface dipole evolution from the hybrid coupling between nitrogen-doped carbon quantum dots and polyethylenimine featuring the electron transport thin layer at Al/Si interfaces by Sasimontra Timjan, Ta-Cheng Wei, Kuan-Han Lin, Yi-Ting Li, Po-Hsuan Hsiao, Chia-Yun Chen

“…In this work, the hybrid design of ETL, obtained from the solution-processed nitrogen-doped carbon quantum dots (NCQDs) incorporated with organic polyethylenimine (PEI) demonstrates the feasible contact characteristics for the modification of Si/Al contacts, which greatly facilitates the transport and collection of photoexcited electrons in the Si-based optoelectronics. The aspects of microstructures, functional groups, chemical features, interfacial characteristics and band structures of NCQD/PEI are explicated, visualizing that the evolution of interface dipoles mediated by the overall outcome of physisorption and chemisorption effects, modifies the surface potential difference and results in the explicit reduction of the Al work function from 4.3 eV for pristine Al to 3.23 eV based on the optimized constitutional design (0.10 % NCQD in PEI). …”
