BCMaterials fortnightly seminars
BCMaterials Seminars are devoted to the discussion of the theses, research papers, articles ... mainly BCMaterials members, but is also open to other guests. The fundamental aim of these seminars is to further the objectives set in the Research Programme and monitor and support the progress of the different PhD theses and research are in the process.First calls for projects under Horizon 2020
For the first time, the Commission has indicated funding priorities over two years, providing researchers and businesses with more certainty than ever before on the direction of EU research policy. Most calls from the 2014 budget are already open for submissions as of today, with more to follow over the course of the year.Floating Zone Single Crystal Furnace Installed in BCMaterials
A single crystal of pure nickel has been successfully grown in the new Floating Zone furnace recently installed in BCMaterials. The furnace is a compact, self-contained unit, with all the controls located on the front of the machine. It can grow single crystal bars of 6 mm in diameter and 10 cm in length. The maximum attainable temperature is 2200ºC.
