Sub-surface damage in ground and annealed alumina and alumina-silicon carbide nanocomposites

High-resolution, grazing incidence, X-ray powder diffraction has been used to probe the strain dispersion (microstrain) and diffracting, domain size as a function of depth in alumina and alumina-silicon carbide nanocomposite. The microstrain was high, and of similar magnitude, below ground surfaces...
