A technique for rapid characterization of intermetallics and interfaces

The production, testing and characterization of intermetallics is expensive and time consuming. In view of the wide range of intermetallics which need to be explored, the development of rapid and simple methods for classifying intermetallics is of importance. In the current work we will describe a method of producing layered or graded materials containing a sequence of intermetallics by controlled dissolution and solidification. The scale of …
