This paper studies the factors that affect the surface roughness on a Platinum deposited wafer after reactive ion etching (RIE) using a combination of CF4 and Argon gaseous.
All three factors gave negative effects.
Methodology A design matrix was designed using full factorial design of experiment (DOE) with four factors and one response.
Pressure can affect plasma uniformity and cause the etch rate or the deposition rate across a wafer to change.
Moreover, ion bombardment is a very important property of plasma.

We recently proposed a new mechanism to simultaneously improve the strength and ductility of multiphase alloys, named “Anisotropic mechanical property-induced ductilization (AMID)”.
The mechanical properties of the alloys were examined by tensile tests.

Test results In the first place in order to determine the basic material properties the flat specimen static tensile tests were carried out.
Table 2 shows the typical mechanical properties obtained during testing.

The measuring points were placed in the center of the welded joint (point 1), on the melting line (point 2) and on the border of heat-affected zone (point 3) (Figure 6).
The results confirmed a great influence of welded joints on mechanical properties of structures made using this steel.

Fe-Cr-Co magnetically hard alloys possess good magnetic properties in combination with high mechanical characteristics.
Using its additional mechanical properties along with magnetic properties components having complicated shape can be made.
This is one of the factors which play a prime role in the magnetic properties of Fe-Cr-Co alloys.
Effect of the spinodal decomposition temperature on the magnetic properties of the (a) alloy ‘A’ and (b) alloy ‘B’ The second major factor which affects the magnetic properties of material is difference in lattice parameter between spinodal phases, caused by the exchange of elements with different atomic volume.
This causes lattice parameter difference between α1 and α2 phase for respective alloy, thus affecting the morphology of the precipitated phases [1,5,6,12].

Reliability and behaviour of composite columns is influenced by many factors.
To obtain at an appropriate design model for these types of structures, two key factors are usually considered.
Nevertheless, they do not give information on the real safety margin or the impact of various design factors on the structure's reliability.
The properties of the materials used in this study were selected on the basis of previous work [3, 4, 28].

There are a variety of factors that can affect the MFL inspection tool’s ability to detect and characterize anomalies.
They include, but are not limited to defect geometry, MFL apparatus itself, magnetic properties and test parameters such as velocity and stress.

Results had shown that the properties of recycled concrete waste aggregate are weaker than natural aggregate [3].

Larger deformation above 30 % reduces the effect of the mechanical stabilisation due to increase in martensite nucleation sites.
Factors that affect the martensitic transformation are chemical composition [3], grain size [4], cooling rate [5], applied elastic stress [6], and dislocations and grain boundaries [7].
Discussion The earlier given references show that deformation of austenite at high temperatures causes competing factors affecting Ms.
Our results indicates that mechanical stabilisation of the austenite dominates.
Also the fact that the sample holders made by aluminium oxide have a large relative heat expansion affects the measurements.

It is known that mechanical properties of materials are deeply related to the microstructure.
With appropriate control of deformation and heat processes, the mechanical properties of final products, such as tensile strength and elongation can be improved.
In particular, the factors arising sample preparation and measuring system conditions can preclude the use of PQ as a reasonable measure for characterization of materials during each scan.
It is possible, however, that the effect of measuring factors associated with microscopy and EBSD system can be ignored, assuming the parameters are carefully fixed for the measurements.
Consequently, the PQ is difficult to use as a measure of mesoscopic material properties.

The mechanical properties and the conductive properties of the material were tested and we found the graphite-based cementitious material which contains 30% to 50% of graphite could be an applicable material for the soil moisture probe.
Even if the probe has a corrosion resistance to passive properties, it still formed multi-element metal film on its surface.
In order to explore the performance of this material, we prepared eight different cementitious materials of different graphite contents, and tested their mechanical properties and electrical conductivity.
The pressure generated by an adult weight is about 2.5 × 10-2MPa ~ 4.0 × 10-2MPa.We made compression tests to test the mechanical properties of the material.
Therefore, we should improve the strength of cementitious material as much as possible, but not affect its humidity property.
