Applications of Phase Transitions in Materials Science.
Abstract
Applications of phase transitions are classified into four groups: those utilizing the formation and/or motion of mobile boundaries between two or more phases that coexist below a critical temperature T sub c, those utilizing metastable phases obtained by control of the kinetics of nucleation and/or diffusion required for transformation to the stable phase or phases, those utilizing changes in physical properties as T approaches T sub c, and those utilizing changes in physical properties at T sub c.
