Sc. Byeon et al., BONDING BETWEEN SINGLE-CRYSTAL MANGANESE-ZINC FERRITES USING ELECTRIC-FIELD, Journal of materials research, 13(11), 1998, pp. 3191-3196
Bonding between single-crystal manganese-zinc ferrites using an electr
ic field was investigated. For a given temperature, bonding was accele
rated with the application of an electric field. Above 1100 degrees C
the effect of electric field was not obvious due to thermally activate
d self-motion of the atoms. Bonding improved with increased oxygen par
tial pressure. This was attributed to the higher diffusion coefficient
of the cations at higher oxygen partial pressures.
