ARMS 2300/2200 Suite Doors Left Unlocked
by Stacey, Lisa A 18 Sep '19

18 Sep '19

It has been recently reported that doors leading into the ARMS 2300 and 2200 faculty office suites have been left unlocked at night after the staff has locked them before leaving at 5:00. As a reminder the office suite doors are unlocked 8 am-5 pm, M-F only, and are to be locked outside of regular office hours (evenings/weekends). If you unlock a door, including the hallway door between grad offices and the 2200 suite, please be sure you relock it immediately so it's not forgotten. We also do not allow students (ugrad/grad), nor other departments in the office suites outside of office hours unless they are meeting with a MSE faculty/staff member. Thank you for your efforts in keeping the department secure.

Please consider attending the following: MATERIALS ENGINEERING SEMINAR "Nanocluster Evolution under Irradiation in Precipitation Strengthened Alloys" By Priyam V. Patki Purdue MSE Preliminary Exam Advisors: Professor Janelle P. Wharry and Professor Maria A. Okuniewski ABSTRACT Precipitation Strengthened Materials like Oxide Dispersion Strengthened (ODS) Steel alloys and Ni super alloys have become attractive materials for use as structural materials in Advanced Nuclear Reactors exposed to higher operating temperatures and higher irradiation damage doses. This study reviews and summarizes the various irradiation experiments carried out on ODS alloys and Ni alloys. Commonly observed changes in nanocluster evolution are in its size, number density, chemistry and crystal structure. It is observed that nanocluster evolution is more probable to take place under ion irradiation than it is under neutron irradiation. Trends based on temperature have been observed to affect the chemistry and crystal structure of nanoclusters. This review also studies the various mechanisms such as ballistic dissolution, Ostwald ripening, irradiation enhanced diffusion and homogeneous nucleation which can be used to explain nanocluster evolution in materials. As one mechanism cannot suffice to explain nanocluster evolution, efforts using multiple mechanisms have been made to predict nanocluster evolution but there is still a need for a more holistic approach.

Seminar Reminder for Zhimin Qi's PhD Final Exam. Seminar, Tuesday, Sept. 17, at 1:00 p.m., in WTHR 320. Exam same day, at 2:00, in ARMS 2007. " Manganese-Based Thin Film Cathodes for Advanced Lithium Ion Battery"

Please consider attending the following: MATERIALS ENGINEERING SEMINAR "Manganese-Based Thin Film Cathodes for Advanced Lithium Ion Battery" By Zhimin Qi Purdue MSE Ph.D. Final Exam Advisor: Professor Haiyan Wang ABSTRACT Lithium ion batteries have been regarded as one of the most promising and intriguing energy storage devices in modern society since 1990s. A lithium ion battery contains three main components, cathode, anode, and electrolyte, and the performance of battery depends on each component and the compatibility between them. Electrolyte acts as a lithium ions conduction medium and two electrodes contribute mainly to the electrochemical performance. Generally, cathode is the limiting factor in terms of capacity and cell potential, which attracts significant research interests in this field. Different from conventional slurry thick film cathodes with additional electrochemically inactive additives, binder-free thin film cathode has become a promising candidate for advanced high-performance lithium ion batteries towards applications such as all-solid-state battery, portable electronics, and microelectronics. However, these electrodes generally require modifications to improve the performance due to intrinsically slow kinetics of cathode materials. In this thesis work, pulsed laser deposition has been applied to design thin film cathode electrodes with advanced nanostructures and improved electrochemical performance. Both single-phase nanostructure designs and multi-phase nanocomposite designs are explored. In terms of materials, the thesis focuses on manganese based layered oxides because of their high electrochemical performance. In Chapter 3 of the nanocomposite cathode work, well dispersed Au nanoparticles were introduced into highly textured LiNi0.5Mn0.3Co0.2O2 (NMC532) matrix to act as localized current collectors and decrease the charge transfer resistance. To further develop this design, in Chapter 4, tilted Au pillars were incorporated into Li2MnO3 with more effective conductive Au distribution using simple one-step oblique angle pulsed laser deposition. In Chapter 5, the same methodology was also applied to grow 3D Li2MnO3 with tilted and isolated columnar morphology, which largely increase the lithium ion intercalation and the resulted rate capability. Finally, in Chapter 6, direct cathode integration of NMC532 was attempted on glass substrates for potential industrial applications. Date: Tuesday, September 17, 2019 Time: 1:00 P.M. Place: WTHR 320
