The experimental results show that segregation of alloying elements was enhanced in as-cast microstructure with Cr addition; and the volume fraction of eutectic is increased. However, the solidus and liquidus temperatures are remarkably reduced. With the increase of Cr content, the average γ' size and volume fraction are decreased in the fully heat treated microstructure. X-ray diffraction results indicate that γ/γ' lattice misfit becomes more negative. According to the energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) results, Cr is mainly distributed in the γ matrix; and more y-forming elements, such as Re and W, enter the γ matrix, while the γ/γ' partition ratio of Cr is inversely decreased.展开更多

However, there is strong nonlinearity in conventional RFWI because of the lack of low-frequency data and the complexity of the amplitude. The separation of phase and amplitude information makes RFWI more linear. Traditional phase-calculation methods face severe phase wrapping. To solve this problem, we propose a modified phase-calculation method that uses the phase-envelope data to obtain the pseudo phase information. Then, we establish a pseudophase-information-based objective function for RFWI, with the corresponding source and gradient terms. Numerical tests verify that the proposed calculation method using the phase-envelope data guarantees the stability and accuracy of the phase information and the convergence of the objective function. The application on a portion of the Sigsbee2A model and comparison with inversion results of the improved RFWI and conventional FWI methods verify that the pseudophase-based RFWI produces a highly accurate and efficient velocity model. Moreover, the proposed method is robust to noise and high frequency.展开更多

Its energy density degradation is often ascribed to the capacity loss during cycling. However, in this study, we find that the energy density degradation mainly roots in voltage decay. We have synthesized a series of LiMn_(y)Fe_(1-y)PO_(4) /C(0.5 ≤ y ≤ 0.8) and find this voltage decay is correlated with the Mn content. A high amount Mn leads to a heavier voltage decay.In-situ X-ray diffraction(XRD) and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy(HRTEM) reveal the nature of this effect, which show a mismatch along the b-axis of-2.68%(charge) and +3.4%(discharge), a volume misfit of-4.41%(charge) and +4.54%(discharge) between Li_(x)Mn_(y)Fe_(1-y)PO_(4) and Mn_(y)Fe_(1-y)PO_(4) during phase transitions. The resultant misfit strains during Li+insertion compared to extraction result in structural degradations, such as amorphization and impurity(Mn F3) accumulation after cycling. The voltage decay can be alleviated by kinetic relaxations and recovered by a wild reannealing. This work demonstrates effective strategies to improve the energy density and cycling performance of LiMn_(y)Fe_(1-y)PO_(4) /C,providing good references for other LIB cathodes, such as the Li-rich cathodes.展开更多

Long term thermal aging tests for DD5 single crystal superalloy were carried out at 1,100 ℃ for 20, 100, 200, 500 and 1000 h, and then cooled by air. The effect of long term thermal aging on the dislocation networks at the γ/γ' interfaces was investigated by FE-SEM. Results showed that during the long term thermal aging at 1,100 ℃, misfit dislocations formed firstly and then reorientation in the(001) interfacial planes occurred. Different types of square or rectangular dislocation network form by dislocation reaction. Square dislocation networks consisting of four groups of dislocations can transform into octagonal dislocation networks, and then form another square dislocation network by dislocation reaction. Rectangular dislocation networks can also transform into hexagonal dislocation networks. The interfacial dislocation networks promote the γ' phase rafting process. The dislocation networks spacings become smaller and smaller, leading to the effective lattice misfit increasing from-0.10% to-0.32%.展开更多

It includes the site preferences of H impurity in single crystals Ni and Ni3Al, the interaction between H impurity and the misfit dislocation and the effect of H impurity on the moving misfit dislocation. The calculated energies and simulation results show that the misfit dislocation attracts H impurity which is located at the γ/γ′ interface and Ni3Al and H impurity on the glide plane can obstruct the glide of misfit dislocation, which is beneficial to improving the mechanical properties of Ni based superalloys.展开更多

A dc bias voltage Vs, of 0 V or -80 V was applied to the substrate during deposition. Structural and electrical proper-ties have been investigated by cross-sectional transmission electron microscopy (XTEM), high resolution XTEM (XHRTEM) and by measuring temperature coefficient of electrical resistance (TCR;η) in the temperature interval of-135℃ to 0 ℃. The Cu film is pol- ycrystalline at Vs= 0 V while it epitaxially grows with Cu(00 )|| MgO(00 1) and Cu[0 10] || MgO[010] at Vs,=-80 V. However, the latter has a very rough surface. The change of η with film thickness and Vs is interpreted in terms of the structure change. Misfit dislocations and lattice expansion are induced along the MgO surface to relax the strain energy due to the lattice mismatch between Cu and MgO.展开更多

It was foundthat the effects of lattice misfits on the electronic structures of incoherent Ni/Ni3Al interface were very obvious. On one hand,less than -0.6% negative lattice misfit can promote the binding strength of γ/γ′ interface. On the other hand, the totalbonding strength of γ/γ′ interface decreases with increasing δ. Therefore, the magnitude and sign of lattice misfit must becarefully controlled for balancing the high temperature creep strength of Ni-base single crystal superalloy and the structuralstability of γ/γ′interface when one designs a new Ni-base single crystal superalloy.展开更多

The strain field of arrays of buried dislocations in a relaxed SiGe buffer layer provided preferential nucleation sites for quantum dots. Burgers vector analysis using plan-view transmission electron microscopy (TEM) verified that the preferential nucleation sites of Ge SAQDs depended on the Burgers vector direction of corresponding dislocations. The measurement of the lateral distance between SAQDs and dislocations together with crosssection TEM observation clarified that the location of SAQDs was at the intersection of the dislocation slip plane and the top surface. The misfit strain should be an additional factor governing the uniformity in size, shape and distribution of Ge SAQDs.展开更多

We focus on the interface structure of the metal(111)/Zn O(0001)in this work. The interfacial potentials of Ag–Zn and Ag–O are obtained. These potentials can be used to solve some problems about Ag/Zn O interfacial structure. Three metastable interfacial structures are investigated in order to check these potentials. Using the interfacial potentials we study the procedure of interface fracture in the Ag/Zn O(0001) interface and discuss the change of the energy, stress, and atomic structures in tensile process. The result indicates that the exact misfit dislocation reduces the total energy and softens the fracture process. Meanwhile, the formation and mobility of the vacancy near the interface are observed.展开更多

文摘A hypoeutectic 60Te–40Bi alloy in mass percent was designed as a tellurium atom evaporation source instead of pure tellurium for an ultraviolet detection photocathode.The alloy was prepared by slow solidification at about 10^(-2) K·s^(-1).The microstructure,crystal structure,chemical composition,and crystallographic orientation of each phase in the as-prepared alloy were investigated by optical microscopy,scanning electron microscopy,X-ray diffraction,electron backscatter diffraction,and transmission electron microscopy.The experimental results suggest that the as-prepared 60Te–40Bi alloy consists of primary Bi_2Te_3 and eutectic Bi_2Te_3/Te phases.The primary Bi_2Te_3 phase has the characteristics of faceted growth.The eutectic Bi_2Te_3 phase is encased by the eutectic Te phase in the eutectic structure.The purity of the eutectic Te phase reaches 100wt%owing to the slow solidification.In the eutectic phases,the crystallographic orientation relationship between Bi_2Te_3 and Te is confirmed as[0001]_(Bi2 Te3)//[1213]_Te and the direction of Te phase parallel to[1120]_(Bi2 Te3)is deviated by 18°from N(2111)_Te.

文摘Systematic approaches are presented to extract the interfacial potentials from the ab initio adhesive energy of the interface system by using the Chen–M ¨obius inversion method. We focus on the interface structure of the metal(111)/Zn O(0001)in this work. The interfacial potentials of Ag–Zn and Ag–O are obtained. These potentials can be used to solve some problems about Ag/Zn O interfacial structure. Three metastable interfacial structures are investigated in order to check these potentials. Using the interfacial potentials we study the procedure of interface fracture in the Ag/Zn O(0001) interface and discuss the change of the energy, stress, and atomic structures in tensile process. The result indicates that the exact misfit dislocation reduces the total energy and softens the fracture process. Meanwhile, the formation and mobility of the vacancy near the interface are observed.

文摘The misfit layer compound(SnS)_(1.2)(TiS_(2))_(2)is a promising low-cost thermoelectric material because of its low thermal conductivity derived from the superlattice-like structure.However,the strong covalent bonds within each constituent layer highly localize the electrons thereby it is highly challenging to optimize the power factor by doping or alloying.Here,we show that Bi doping at the Sn site markedly breaks the covalent bonds networks and highly delocalizes the electrons.This results in a high charge carrier concentration and enhanced power factor throughout the whole temperature range.It is highly remarkable that Bi doping also significantly reduces the thermal conductivity by suppressing the heat conduction carried by phonons,indicating that it independently modulates phonon and charge transport properties.These effects collectively give rise to a maximum ZT of 0.3 at 720 K.In addition,we apply the single Kane band model and the Debye–Callaway model to clarify the electron and phonon transport mechanisms in the misfit layer compound(SnS)_(1.2)(TiS_(2))_(2).
文摘The distinct images of intragranular VC were observed on TEM in superalloy GH36 underwent normal heat treatment and prolonged aging.The size of VC particles were meas- ured by means of Moire pattern,and the misfit between VC and austenite was also calculated. The M23C6 enveloped in VC shell was also observed in the prolonged-aged specimens.The coherent relation between intragranular M_(23)C_6 twins and austenite as well as its coherent in- terface were also studied.
