COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT (CR&D) Delivery Order 0020: Novel Low Friction Hard Coatings for Applications in Multiple Environments
Abstract
This research in support of the Air Force Research Laboratory Materials and Manufacturing Directorate was conducted at Wright-Patterson AFB, Ohio and other locations from 02 August 2004 through 1 February 2008. This work has centered on the development of novel plasma-based processes for materials to reduce friction and/or protect against wear. The work has been diverse and extensive, with applications ranging from high mach engines to high frequency micro-switches. Enclosed is a collection of seventeen peer reviewed journal articles authored or co-authored by Chris Muratore while working under this contract. The papers should effectively account for the technical work completed under this task order at AFRL, and with collaborators in industry and academia. In addition to the technical work featured in the journal articles, Chris also worked on proposals for funding, mentoring and advising of graduate students as well as post-doctoral researchers, laboratory maintenance and management. He presented the data at conferences, with three invited talks, and was a session chair at several conferences he attended.
