In this study, Ga whisker growth on sintered Cr2GaC samples was investigated. The elemental source for spontaneous growth of Ga whiskers is identified as the free Ga contained in the Cr2GaC material, not the lattice atoms from Cr2GaC grains, which removes the doubts on the stability of Cr2GaC material.

This model explains and predicts well the growth behavior of the whiskers. The mitigation strategy based on this model is in principle simple: to prevent free Ga in Cr2GaC material or limit it to a certain level;to avoid cleavage plane of Cr2GaC grains;to achieve high density of the Cr2GaC material.展开更多
