Main studies carried out during October:

- participation in workshop on 6th and 7th of October organized by Warsaw University of Technology & Hitachi High-Technologies on Advanced Electron Microscopy Methods Applied to Investigations of Nanomaterials.

- microstructure observation of thin foils prepared from melt spun ribbons containing Mo, Cr addition using TEM

- DSC measurements for all samples of melt spun ribbons with addition of fourth element (V, Ti, Zr, Cr, Mo), results were compared with the DSC curve for melt-spun ribbons with initial ternary composition

- XRD measurements for all the samples of melt spun ribbon with addition of fourth element were performed to determine their phase structure. As a result no significant change in phase composition was observed comparing to melt spun ribbons of initial alloy.

- stay for one week in The Research Institute for Technical Physics and Materials Science of Hungarian Academy of Sciences, performing in-situ experiment and EELS measurements together with Prof. János L. Lábár and dr György Z. Radnoczi.

- participation in seminar, which was given by prof. Ehrenfried Zschech from Fraunhofer Institute for Non-Destructive Testing IZFP with the title: “Energy-efficient microelectronics - The contribution of materials science and engineering”
