Additional information

This study on the surface modification of silicon carbide using a laser beam, which built on previous work on alumina (http://dx.doi.org/10.1002/9781118217498.ch14) provided the underpinning science that enabled significant improvements in the ballistic performance of ceramic tiles bonded to composite backing panels to be achieved (‘Links with University of Surrey pays dividends’ http://www.lockheedmartin.co.uk/uk/10000-Ways/An-Employer-of-Choice/Graduates/links-with-university-of-surrey-pays-dividends.html).
