Growth of Zr/ZrO_(2) core-shell structures by fast thermal oxidation

This research has been conducted to characterize and validate resistive heating as a synthesis method for zirconium oxides (ZrO_(2)). A wire of Zr has been oxidized to form a core-shell structure, in which the core is a metal wire, and the shell is an oxide layer that is around 10 mu m thick. The ch...
