nitride Usage Examples
Converse of object
- dilute: Functional materials, e.g. contacts to AlGaN/GaN FETs, dilute nitrides, spintronics.
- form: Lithium is the only metal in Group 1 to form a nitride.
- coat: Front suspension - Öhlins titanium nitride coated 43 mm diameter upside-down fork; 120 mm wheel travel.
- include: These include the nitrides, halides, oxides and hydrides.
- produce: For example, we have produced silicon nitride containing small amounts of lanthanide ions.
Preposition: on
bit: There is also a special coating of titanium nitride on the bit which increases their wear resistance.
Adjective modifier
- hard: Nitriding The diffusion of nitrogen into alloy steel to form hard nitrides in the surface layer ( typically 250?
- cubic: It is extremely lightweight but is the third hardest material known to science, next to diamond and cubic boron nitride.
Modifies a noun
- coating: The new fork has 43 mm stanchions with titanium nitride coating for friction-free sliding action.
- layer: The carbide and nitride layers give the structure strength and the oxide layer provides the chemical resistance.
- material: Dr. Andrew L. Hector Research interests - nitride materials Materials with nitride as the anion are much less well studied than those with oxide.
- semiconductor: However a wide variety of oxide and nitride semiconductors can be doped and are ferromagnetic at room temperature.
- membrane: Figure 4c shows a silicon nitride membrane mirror which is suitable for adaptive optics.
- laser: We have demonstrated high quality dilute nitride lasers emitting at 1300nm using quaternary GaInNAs barriers.
Noun used with modifier
- gallium: Ongoing work includes using ion implantation for novel device and circuit architectures and for processing gallium nitride in novel ways.
- boron: The engine used a conical rotary valve made from pure boron nitride.
- titanium: The pistons are also coated with titanium nitride to reduce friction with the seals.
- silicon: Figure 4 shows an optical image of a silicon nitride block which has been damaged on the right side.
- aluminum: Unfortunately aluminum nitride in particular has angular particles which are abrasive, leading to excessive mold wear.
- metal: In each case, you will get a mixture of the metal oxide and the metal nitride.
