In materials science, lamellar structures or microstructures are composed of fine, alternating layers of different materials in the form of lamellae. They are often observed in cases where a phase transition front moves quickly, leaving behind two solid products, as in rapid cooling of eutectic (such as solder ) or eutectoid (such as pearlite ...
A lamella (pl.: lamellae) is a small plate or flake, from the Latin, and may also refer to collections of fine sheets of material held adjacent to one another in a gill-shaped structure, often with fluid in between though sometimes simply a set of "welded" plates.
Commonly, in gaps between the lamellae, a fine-grained mixture of kamacite and taenite called plessite can be found. [1] Widmanstätten structures describe analogous features in modern steels, [2] titanium, and zirconium alloys, but are usually microscopic in size.
The carbon diffusion during the formation of pearlite, just ahead of the growth front, is critical in determining the thickness of the lamellae and, consequently, the strength of the steel. [5] Bainite is a similar structure with lamellae much smaller than the wavelength of visible light and thus lacks this pearlescent appearance. It is ...
A lamella (pl.: lamellae) in biology refers to a thin layer, membrane or plate of tissue. [1] This is a very broad definition, and can refer to many different structures. Any thin layer of organic tissue can be called a lamella and there is a wide array of functions an individual layer can serve.
Lamellae form during crystallization from the melt. The arrow shows the direction of temperature gradient. [5] Nucleation starts with small, nanometer-sized areas, where a result of heat motions in some chains or their segments occur parallel. Those seeds can either dissociate, if thermal motion destroys the molecular order, or grow further, if ...
Lamella (mycology), a papery rib beneath a mushroom cap; Lamella (botany) Lamella (surface anatomy), a plate-like structure in an animal; Lamella of osteon, the concentric circles around the central Haversian canals; Lamella (cell biology): (i) part of a chloroplast (thin extension of thylakoid joining different grana)
