Activities


Department activities

The activity of the department is primarily focused on the development, preparation and characterization of advanced metallic materials prospective for modern applications:

    Prepared materials with optimized structure are further analyzed on various scales ranging from atomic up to microscopic ones using the most modern methods of electron, ion and light microscopies, X–ray diffraction techniques and mechanical testing. The results are interpreted by means of theoretical models and computer simulations.


    The Department consists of two mutually cooperating groups:

    • Group of advanced materials, deals with preparation of bulk metallic materials with either extremely fine grains or single-crystalline structure, their characterization and investigation of physical properties.
    • Group of X–ray investigation, is concentrated in the Institute laboratory ROTAN and provides structural analysis of materials using intensive X–ray source with rotating anode.
