  • Publication number: 20190017392
    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to an impingement insert for a turbomachine. The impingement insert includes an insert body having an inner surface, an outer surface spaced apart from the inner surface, and a thickness extending from the inner surface to the outer surface. The insert body defines a first depression extending from one of the inner surface or the outer surface into the insert body. The first depression has a diameter. The insert body further defines an impingement aperture extending from the first depression through the insert body. The impingement aperture has a length and a diameter. The thickness of the insert body is greater than the length of the impingement aperture and the diameter of the first depression is greater than the diameter of the impingement aperture.

  • Publication number: 20160010221
    Abstract: Metal oxide structures, devices, and fabrication methods are provided. In addition, applications of such structures, devices, and methods are provided. In some embodiments, an oxide material can include a substrate and a single-crystal epitaxial layer of an oxide composition disposed on a surface of the substrate, where the oxide composition is represented by ABO2 such that A is a lithium cation, B is a cation selected from the group consisting of trivalent transition metal cations, trivalent lanthanide cations, trivalent actinide cations, trivalent p-block cations, and combinations thereof, and O is an oxygen anion. The ABO2 can be a high purity ABO2, with less than 1 atom % each of sodium, carbon, boron, and fluorine. The ABO2 can be prepared by a liquid phase electro-epitaxy using a molten solution of a metal oxide and LiBO2.
