DETAILED NOTES ON DIFFUSION BONDED CRYSTAL

The fracture habits and fracture mode on the diffusion-bonded joints have been elucidated by macro fracture and magnified floor morphologies. The macro fracture morphologies (flat fracture) demonstrate the propagation of crack happened along the MEA/DD5 interface in tensile assessments in the joints achieved at 1020, 1050, and 1080 °C (Figure 8aâ€
