Molecular structures of the studied compounds have difference only in fluorine position and the length of the carbon chain. Dielectric relaxation study and electro-optical measurements are carried out with the classical SSFLC geometry. The field-induced phase transitions are studied and the(E,T) phase diagram is established.展开更多

We observe a series of field-induced multi-step-like transitions with hysteresis, of which the critical magnetic fields are temperature-dependent and show anisotropy. By using a pulsed high magnetic field up to 75 T, the magnetization behavior shows that the critical transition magnetic fields of spin- flip/flop shift to lower field regions with an increase in temperature. According to the magnetization curves, a complete magnetic phase diagram is depicted.展开更多

Alloys of Mg-Zn-La system in Mg rich corner were prepared, and the phase relationship was investigated at different temperatures such as 200, 300 and 350 ℃ by scanning electron microscopy(SEM), X-ray diffraction(XRD)...Alloys of Mg-Zn-La system in Mg rich corner were prepared, and the phase relationship was investigated at different temperatures such as 200, 300 and 350 ℃ by scanning electron microscopy(SEM), X-ray diffraction(XRD) and electron probe microanalysis with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EPMA). Two types of phase equilibrium were identified at the different temperatures. One is two-phase equilibrium contained the Mg solid solution and T-phase. The other is three-phase equilibrium which contained the Mg solid solution, MgZn phase and T-phase. T-phase was stable as the temperature changed. The La content in T-phase is constant which is about 8±0.3% (atom fraction); but the Mg content and Zn content of that is changed, and the Zn content in T-phase was from 16.1% to 44%. The solubility of La in MgZn phase was increased from 1.2% to 1.6% as the temperature increasing from 200 to 350 ℃.展开更多
