        In September I attended th XXIIth Conference on Applied Arystallography which took place between the 2nd-6th this month in Targanice in Silesia region. Few talks I found interesting although there weren't too many on shape memory materials. In fact there was only one concerning the mechanics

        During the month I was studying samples of alloys with five components (namely with Zr and Mo addition) using TEM. I took part in the conference „9-th Polish-Japanese Joint Seminar on Micro and Nano Analysis” where I gave presentation titled: „Effect of alloying elements on microstructure and proper

        In this month I was mainly studying samples with Zr addition using TEM. I also performed some microhardness measurements. In the second part of the month I was preparing for the conference „9-th Polish-Japanese Joint Seminar on Micro and Nano Analysis” (abstract, presentation).

        Samples of AA3004 aluminium alloy pre-deformed by ECAP and annealed at 265°C and 280°C have been prepared to the observations in scanning electron microscope (EBSD/SEM).
        I tried to calculate the percentages of the various components of texture of faded 20-degree for each of samples of AA1050 al

        AFM studies show that the highest roughness is obtained fo a silicon wafer textured in acid solution contains 8HF:1HNO3:1H2O. Process time was 1 minute - this is a relatively short period of time leading to a significant reduction in production costs. AFM investigations are consistent with reflectio

        Main activities carried out during September:

        - preparation of an article from the results obtained so far
        - preparation of the presentation for the 9-th Polish-Japanese Joint Seminar on Micro and Nano Analysis in Sieniawa

        As July and almost two week holiday I took faded away like a distant memory, I started to organize results obtained so far and thinking what to do next. Since there was quite a big discrepancy in observations regarding KoBo-ed zinc, a decision was made that new investigations should be conducted. Es

        In August, I continued my investigations of balled-milled powders after different milling periods. I also performed some TEM investigations of compacted ball-milled aluminium powder with magnesium nitride addition hoping to find any evidence of AlN formation during milling/hot pressing of powders bu

        This month I was focused on investigations of tetragonal ZrO2 samples received from AGH. These are preliminary studies carried out to obtain information about measurement parameters that are necessary for successful experiment.

        I have obtained first preliminary results of my computer simulations. They were performed using FDTD Solutions of Lumerical. This program uses fine mesh of lattice points in the space and solves Maxwell's equations in ech point. By placing any object and setting light source with distnct monit

        In August I continued the the voltammetric studies and potentiostatic deposition of alloy layers, on the steel and copper surfaces, from stable homogeneous Zn(II)-Mo(VI) citrate baths with various concetrations of sodium citrate and sodium molybdate.
        Next I summarized all the investigations car
