  Polycrystal diamond fluted tool and a process for the production of the same - Patent 5020394
A polycrystal diamond fluted tool is provided which is capable of effecting working with much higher accuracy and longer life as compared with the sintered diamond straight fluted tool of the prior art, and is particularly suitable for finishing working with high accuracy.
A polycrystal diamond fluted tool, in which at least a part of the rake face of a fluted tool base metal of a cemented carbide alloy is brazed with a polycrystal diamond film synthesized by a vapor phase method to form a cutting edge.
In the present invention, a polycrystal diamond film in the form of a flute to be a tool material is firstly formed by a vapor phase synthesis method, on the surface of a substrate having been subjected to helical grinding to give the same a flute shape as that of a tool base metal.

 AGU Mantle Video
It is an excellent example to illustrate the relationship between microscopic processes at the atomic scale and macroscopic properties, relying on polycrystal plasticity theory developed by materials scientists.
We apply two-dimensional finite element methods and polycrystal plasticity theory to model deformation in the solid upper mantle of the Earth.
By including polycrystal plasticity, geophysical deformation modeling is entering a new state of refinement and is an excellent example for quantitative texture analysis.

 U.S. Patent: 5259923 - Dry etching method - November 9, 1993
Accordingly, if the etching selection ratio between polycrystal silicon and the silicon oxide film is small, and the etching speed within the wafer surface cannot be sufficiently uniformed, the oxide silicon film is completely etched at a section of the wafer surface.
Next, to examine the etching characteristic of the polycrystal silicon film 42, the etching speed for phosphor-added polycrystal Si, and the uniformity thereof along with a variable high frequency power, were measured.
Then, etching of the underlaying polycrystal silicon was conducted by use of Cl.sub.2 as the etching gas under the conditions that: the high frequency power of 100W, the pressure of 75 m Torr, and the lower electrode temperature of -60.degree.

 Integrated semiconductor device having insulated gate field effect transistors with a buried insulating film - United ...
The polycrystal silicon layer 114 on the buried insulating film 102 adjacent to the p.sup.+ region 118 shows the p.sup.+ conductivity type and the insulating film 116 provided at the surface is used as the mask for masking the n type impurity for forming the source and drain regions 108, 108' in the manufacturing process.
Then, after removing the implantation masking layer, the polycrystal silicon layer in the thickness of about 5000 A is deposited on the thin silicon dioxide film, and patterning of the polycrystal silicon layer and thin silicon dioxide film is performed by photo-lithography.
On the other hand, the thin silicon dioxide film 116 remains on the surface of the p.sup.+ type region and this is used as the mask for masking the n type impurity in the process wherein the n type impurity is introduced into the region where the source and drain regions are to be formed.

 Characterisation of polycrystal deformation by numerical modelling and neutron diffraction measurements   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-09)
The deformation of polycrystals are modelled using three micron mechanic models; the Taylor model, the Sachs model and Hutchinson's self-consistent (SC) model.
It is concluded that the effect of the elastic anisotropy is limited to the very early stages of plasticity, as the deformation pattern is almost identical for the three materials at higher strains.
The predictions of the three models are evaluated by neutron diffraction measurements of elastic lattice strains in grain sub-sets within the polycrystal.

 THESES   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-09)
Unlike a free single crystal, a single crystal in a polycrystal could not deform like a free single crystal, otherwise the strain must be discontinuous across the grain boundaries and voids must be formed between the neighboring grains.
It is experimentally observed that in each grain (crystal) in a polycrystal the regions near the boundaries deforms differently from the interior.
Reorientation of crystallographic orientation of individual grain in polycrystal is associated with constrained plastic deformation (by shear on a single or several slip systems).

 Method of manufacturing ferrite crystals - Patent 5256242
A method of manufacturing ferrite crystals such as single crystal bodies and polycrystal bodies with garnet structure is disclosed, which includes the steps of effecting a composition controlling for raw powders, forming raw powders, sintering formed bodies and effecting hot isostatic press treatment for sintered bodies.
In the construction mentioned above, ferrite polycrystal bodies having good properties such as porosity of less than 0.01% and light absorption coefficients of less than 50 cm.sup.-1 at a wavelength of 1.3 micro meter can be obtained by effecting HIP treatment with respect to the sintered polycrystal bodies.
Moreover, since the thus obtained ferrite polycrystal bodies do not substantially contain any Ca component, the single crystallization by heating the connection body between the mother single crystal and the polycrystal is not affected.

 CMSN: Microstructural Effects on the Mechanics of Materials
In polycrystals, plastic response is complicated by the co-evolution of dislocation sub-structures within each individual grain and their interactions mediated by the grain boundaries.
One revealing FEM simulation of polycrystal plasticity was reported by Anand and Kalidindi, based on the constitutive equations fitted to experimental data on single crystals.
Since a common observation in coarse-grained polycrystals is that GB sources are the first to operate (likely due to elastic compatibility stresses), it seems reasonable to assume that they would also be the easiest to operate and the last to cease operation as the grain size decreases.

PolyCrystal note their products were used at CES by Conrad-Johnson, Jadis, Krell, Pass Labs, Sonic Frontiers and VTL, which is heavy-money endorsement for inexpensive product.
The $150 sets of Polycrystal Reference Isolators look like they're just bigger chunks of their clever-composite material than their Iso-3 model at $65 a set, "a composite made up of multiple inert materials, crushed to the sizes of their crystalline structures and embedded in a matrix" as they say.
There is little to choose between the basic Polycrystal Isolator and the Basis 15 on price, performance, or character despite their very different construction.

 Micromechanics Challenges for Modeling Polycrystalline Materials Research Brief
The simulated deformation response of grains in the polycrystal depends on their crystallographic orientation, which is tracked within each finite element of every grain.
Consequently, the microstructure can evolve at a subgrain scale within the polycrystal and a large amount of information about the deformation of a polycrystalline material may be divulged at a micro- (and in some cases nano-) size scale.
At a microscopic scale, the model predicts large variations in stress within the simulated polycrystal due to varying constraints imposed by neighboring grains with different crystallographic orientations.

 Zirconia and Partially Stabilised Zirconia as an Orthopaedic Biomaterial - Characteristics, Properti
Compared to alumina, partially stabilised zirconia (PSZ) has higher flexural strength, fracture toughness and high Weibull modulus (which equates to better reliability), as well as lower Young's modulus and the ability to be polished to a superior surface finish.
Low temperature degradation of tetragonal zirconia polycrystal is known to occur as a result of the spontaneous phase transformation of the tetragonal zirconia to monoclinic phase during ageing at 130-300°C possibly within water environment.
It has been reported that this degradation leads to a decrease in strength due to the formation of microcracks and accompanying phase transformation.
