Generating sparse self-supporting wireframe models for 3D printing using mesh simplification

Wireframe models are becoming a popular option in 3D printing. Generating sparse wireframe models using classic mesh simplification methods leads to models that require a lot of support structures in the layer-upon-layer additive process. In this paper we present a mesh simplification method that takes into account the overhang angle....

Enhanced Optical Performance of BaMgAl₁₀O₁₇: Eu²⁺ Phosphor by a Novel Method of Carbon Coating

Many strategies have been adopted to improve thermal degradation of phosphors. Because of the stability and high transmittance of graphene, here we report a novel method of carbon coating on BaMgAl₁₀O₁₇:Eu²⁺ (BAM) phosphor particles through chemical vapor deposition. The chemical composition, microstructure,...
