AlSi10Mg processed by laser powder bed fusion is expected to have remarkable mechanical properties due to the dominant cellular microstructure. However, the as-processed material is often both anisotropic and containing significant residual stresses. To mitigate these problems, a retrofitted heati...

In this work, results of controlled detachment of (111) silicon by stress induced spalling (SIS) process, which is based on a gluing on a metallic stressor layer by an epoxy adhesive on top of a silicon substrate, are presented. It is shown that silicon foils mainly (1  ×  1) cm2 with different thic...
