Material Requirements

ABSTRACTRecently Lightwave Device Packaging Department at AT&T Bell Laboratories has demonstrated that ceramic materials can provide cost effective and high quality packages to house optical and electronic components for lightwave communication applications. In this paper we examine the material requirements for optical packages. We also study the material properties of metals and ceramics with a potential application in optical packages. In particular, we review hermeticity, thermal conductivity, thermal expansion coefficient, dielectric constant, electrical resistivity, sintering temperature and mechanical strength of these materials. Our study will provide a data base and useful guidelines for designers to make uniformed decisions on material selection for optical package. We also review the mixing rules to predict the resultant property of a composite from the known attributes of its constituents and the use of new composite materials will provide a new degree of flexibility in the optical package design.

AbstractThere are few materials that are broadly used for fabricating optical metasurfaces for visible light applications. Gallium phosphide (GaP) is a material that, due to its optical properties, has the potential to become a primary choice but due to the difficulties in fabrication, GaP thin films deposited on transparent substrates have never been exploited. In this article we report the design, fabrication, and characterization of three different amorphous GaP metasurfaces obtained through sputtering. Although the material properties can be further optimized, our results show the potential of this material for visible applications making it a viable alternative in the material selection for optical metasurfaces.

Development of ceramic materials is critical for new and improved electronic applications. Herein, the J-E response of Y2NiMnO6 (YNMO) ceramics composited by a solid state reaction method was investigated. Sintering temperature and time were found to have significant influence on the ceramics electrical properties. In particular, higher temperatures and longer sintering times resulted in more favourable dielectric properties of the YNMO ceramics. A current of 40 mA/cm2 at 20,000 mV/cm was obtained by sintering at 1300 °C for 12 hours, whereas a current of 9 mA/cm2 at 4000 mV/cm can be achieved by sintering at 1400 °C for 24 hours. These results will be useful for identifying applications for YNMO ceramics. The electrical properties of the YNMO ceramics can be tuned for different electronic components such as dry batteries and capacitors.

Material selection decisions for advanced reactor concepts are frequently based on simple consideration of required wall thickness for a particular component and the resultant cost based on averaged cost per unit, usually by weight. However, this approach does not take into consideration the overall impact of other material properties on design feasibility. An example would be the interrelated roles of thermal conductivity, thermal expansion and creep-strength on the design of components to withstand cyclic and sustained loading. The problem is that this would nominally require a detailed design and loading definition. However, as presented herein, a meaningful comparison can be achieved by selective evaluation of the ratios of the material properties required to achieve a particular performance goal for a particular design objective; for example, the relative ability to accommodate axial thermal gradients in a pressurized cylindrical vessel. This paper covers the development of such critical parametric ratios for a number of component elements and loadings and illustrates their application.

Different Shapes

The development in the manufacturing of micro-truss structures has demonstrated the effectiveness of brazing for assembling these sandwiches, which opens new opportunities for cost-effective and high-quality truss manufacturing. An evolving idea in micro-truss manufacturing is the possibility of forming these structures in different shapes with the aid of elevated temperature. This work investigates the formability and elongation of aluminum alloy sheets typically used for micro-truss manufacturing, namely AA5083 and AA3003. Tensile tests were performed at a temperature in the range of 25-500 ○C and strain rate in the range of 2x10-4 -10-2 s-1. The results showed that the clad layer in AA3003 exhibited an insignificant effect on the formability and elongation of AA3003. The formability of the two alloys was improved significantly with values of m as high as 0.4 and 0.13 for AA5083 and AA3003 at 500 °C. While the elongation of both AA5083 and AA3003 was improved at a higher temperature, the elongation of AA5083 was inversely related to strain rate. It was concluded that the higher the temperature is the better the formability and elongation of the two alloys but at the expense of work hardening. This suggests a trade-off situation between formability and strength.
