Folding lens? I haven't heard of that one :o I'll look it up, thanks! :D

Oooooooo, that sounds interesting! I'll look it up right away, I were looking for something like this :D I am undergrad, but I will be for one more year only, so I'm looking into what I can do next. Thank you for the recommendation, Jdodson :D Jedi-origami? I had that hobby once :p...

I am a Materials Science undergraduate, and love it! But I'm looking for something to get passionate about. Nothing fulfilling enough has caught my attention, although I have some promising leads. I've currently hit a wall in my search. Can you help me? My leads: -Thin films. A study-for-fun on...

"Mom, I don't need to tidy up my room. According to quantum mechanics, if you throw things around they tend to organize themselves" (You should have seen the look on mom's face!)

Oh, that's why you thought of it being strange! Yes, what I meant is pre-made oxides getting deposited. Oxidation of surfaces and the reasons one may need it is a whole other discussion. But I do wonder if a surface changed by methods as anodization would count as a thin film, now that you...

Many thanks! Molybdenium was one element I hadn't checked at all. And I'll use some parts of that site, too. (I'll check all of it all once I find some time, it has very interesting articles!) We had problems with these journals, so I have to admit it wasn't my first thought (*is...

No, actually... I am writing a scientific paper for which I need some basic info on hard coatings. But thanks anyway! (And you do have a point, I should have been more specific about what I want...) My main problem is that I cannot find out which are the main nitrides and oxides used in hard...

I need some general information about hard coatings and their basic oxides, but I cannot find any good links... Is it possible that you could know a link or two?
