      Synthesis of reactive structures by ball milling and ultrasonic consolidation 

      Hadjiafxenti, Anastasia G. (Πανεπιστήμιο Κύπρου, Πολυτεχνική Σχολή / University of Cyprus, Faculty of Engineering, 2013-01)
      Πηγές ενέργειας στη νανο- και στη μικο- κλίμακα έχουν ελκύσει το ενδιαφέρον ως πιθανά ικανά εργαλεία στη νανοκατασκευστική και μικροκατασκευαστική. Υπερλεπτά πολύστρωματικά υμένια (ΠΥ) χρησιμοποιούνται σαν νανοθερμικές ...
