Scientists have synthesized the first transparent sample of a popular industrial ceramic. The result is a super-hard window made of cubic silicon nitride that can potentially be used under extreme ...

The super-hard window made of cubic silicon nitride can potentially be used under extreme conditions like in engines, researchers said. Scientists have synthesised the first transparent sample of a ...

This video shows the application of optical profiler from KLA. A transparent sample is located on the stage of the profiler. The different layer of the sample is viewed from the distance down to the ...

Cubic silicon nitride (c-Si3N4) forms under high pressure and is the second hardest transparent nanoceramic after diamond but can withstand substantially higher temperatures. This is a sample of ...
