Structural characterization was performed using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), grazing incident X-ray diffraction (GIXRD) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). High density of interstitial type dislocation loops could be observed at a dose level of around 2.75 displacements per atom (dpa). With the irradiation dose increased to 27.5 dpa, the average size of loops increased from 5 nm to 16 nm, while the density of the loops decreased from 1.4 × 1011/cm2 to 4.6 × 1010/cm2. When the irradiation dose reached 82.5 dpa, original grains were transformed into subgrains whose sizes observed from TEM were about 20-60 nm. The fragmentation of grains was confirmed by GIXRD. The mean subgrain size was 40 nm, which was obtained from the full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the X-ray diffraction lines using the Scherrer formula and Williamson formula. AFM micrographs showed that nanometer-sized hillocks formed at the dose of 82.5 dpa, which provided further evidence of grain fragmentation at a high irradiation dose.展开更多

The aim of this work is to investigate the relationship between the microstructure of the magnetic anisotropic CS/PVA/Fe_3O_4 membrane and the evolved macroscopic physicochemical property. With the same doping content, the relative crystallinity of CS/PVA/Fe_3O_4-M is lower than that of CS/PVA/Fe_3O_4.The Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FT-TR) measurements indicate that there is no chemical bonding between polymer molecule and Fe_3O_4 nanoparticle. The Fe_3O_4 nanoparticles in CS/PVA/Fe_3O_4 and CS/PVA/Fe_3O_4-M are wrapped by the chains of CS/PVA, which is also confirmed by scanning electron microscopy(SEM) and x-ray diffraction(XRD)analysis. The saturation magnetization value of CS/PVA/Fe_3O_4-M obviously increases compared with that of non-magnetic aligned membrane, meanwhile the transmittance decreases in the UV-visible region. The o-Ps lifetime distribution provides information about the free-volume nanoholes present in the amorphous region. It is suggested that the microstructure of CS/PVA/Fe_3O_4 membrane can be modified in its curing process under a magnetic field, which could affect the magnetic properties and the transmittance of nanocomposite membrane. In brief, a full understanding of the relationship between the microstructure and the macroscopic property of CS/PVA/Fe_3O_4 nanocomposite plays a vital role in exploring and designing the novel multifunctional materials.展开更多
