Inorganic Materials Aims and scope

Abstract

High-purity single-crystal W and W〈Nb〉 have been prepared using chemical vapor transport. The impurity composition of the materials has been determined using spark source mass spectrometry and high-temperature vacuum extraction. The radial Nb profile in the alloy has been investigated by electron microscopy.
