Fabrication of niobium sheet for RF cavities /

This thesis investigated the microstructure and mechanical property of RRR( high purity) and RG (low purity) niobium (Nb) sheet material. RRR Nb is used in the fabrication RF cavities. Our method involves processing bulk niobium by equal channel angular extrusion (ECAE) and then cross rolling to obt...
