Structure analysis of the YBCO layer in Ag/YBCO/metal oxide buffer/Hastelloy composite tape before and after 107 MeV Kr17+ irradiation

Philippe Buffat, Marco Cantoni, Elena Suvorova Buffat

The effects of 107 MeV Kr-84(17+) ion irradiation on YBa2Cu3O7-x-based second-generation coated conductors were investigated using a combination of transmission electron microscopy, diffraction and X-ray energy dispersive spectrometry. Defects 3-5 nm in di ...

Injectable calcium phosphate cement for augmentation around cancellous bone screws. In vivo biomechanical studies

Dominique Pioletti, Vincent Stadelmann

In lower cancellous apparent bone density, it can be difficult to achieve adequate screw fixation and hence stable fracture fixation. Different strategies have been proposed, one of them is through augmentation using calcium phosphate cement in the region ...
