The eutectic structure of metals and ceramics occurs when multiple solid phases solidify from a liquid phase, forming a three-dimensional (3D) pattern through a self-organizing phenomenon.
Self-assembled solidifying eutectic materials directed by a template with miniature features demonstrate unique microstructures and patterns as a result of diffusion and thermal gradients caused by ...
The phase diagram between lead and tin shows the eutectic invariant reaction between these two constituents. At the eutectic temperature of 183 C, three phases exist in equilibrium: (Pb) with the ...
