Processing/fabrication techniques applications

Concurrent with this improvement in materials has been improvement in fabrication techniques and characterization. Better processing has contributed to improved device performance, reduced deposition cost and time, and to the development of architectures and process flows suitable for target applications. Better characterization has led to an improved understanding of device operation and performance and a metric for materials diagnosis. 

Kim and Dimiduk, 1991 Fujitsuna etal., 1991 Tokizane et al., 1991 Wurzwallner etal., 1993). The diffusion bonding process has been studied in particular detail (Yan and Wallach, 1993). With respect to turbine engine applications, component fabrication techniques have been demonstrated for airfoils and compressor cases (Lipsitt, 1985 a Chesnutt, 1990 Yamaguchi and Umakoshi, 1990 Kim and Dimiduk, 1991 Bondarev et al., 1991). However, much more development work is necessary to overcome the problems of ductility and toughness, corrosion resistance, strength and costs.
