Effect of Nano-Ti N Particle on Mechanical Property of TiN-Ni Alloy Plating by Huai Zunke, Nan Huan, Wang Feng

“…Application of chemical deposition technology,a layer of nanometer TiN-Ni alloy is coated in the planet gear shaft of automotive transmission,the tests show that the nano-TiN particle increase the hardness and the wear-resisting performance and the chemical resistance of the plating of TiN-Ni alloy,also increase the friction coefficient for it.The nano-TiN particle is diffused in the unit cell of the layer of nanometer TiN-Ni alloy,they form the plating of metal alloy and ceramic,the plating is densification and hardness,there are a lot of the hardness nano-TiN,the mechanical property of TiN-Ni alloy coating is improved.…”

Surface Plasmon Singularities by Gabriel Martínez-Niconoff, P. Martinez-Vara, G. Diaz-Gonzalez, J. Silva-Barranco, A. Carbajal-Domínguez

“…With the purpose to compare the physical features of the electromagnetic field, we describe the synthesis of optical singularities propagating in the free space and on a metal surface. In both cases the electromagnetic field has a slit-shaped curve as a boundary condition, and the singularities correspond to a shock wave that is a consequence of the curvature of the slit curve. …”
