An obvious stratification is observed in the simulation. The layering phenomenon is a hybrid acceleration mechanism reflecting target normal sheath acceleration and radiation pressure acceleration, and this phenomenon is understood from the simulated energy spectrum,ionization and spatial electric field distribution. According to the stratification, it is suggested that high-quality heavy-ion beams could be expected for fusion reactions to synthesize superheavy nuclei. Two plasma clusters in the stratification are observed simultaneously, which suggest new techniques for plasma experiments as well as thinner metal targets in the precision machining process.展开更多

It was found that the gamma -TiAl alloy at stoichiometrical composition exhibits a second-order transition, and the relations between lattice constants a, c and the long-range order sigma are not linear. The lattice constant a decreases whereas c increases with the increase of the long-range order parameter. In this case the ordering induces the transformation from cubic to tetragonal. The change of the lattice constant during the ordering processes can be interpreted in terms of bond length.展开更多

The main purpose of this work is to understand the basic aspects of this effect andrelated reasonable model on order-disorder transformation. In the present approach, theconfiguration free energy is chosen as function of the lattice parameter and the long-range order.This energy is calculated through Taylor's expansion, starting from the disordered state. It wasfound that the configuration free energy has been strongly modified when the lattice parameter istaken into account. It was also found only one type of order-disorder transformation exists in ABalloy and three kinds of order-disorder transformations for non-equiatomic alloy system such as A_3Balloy. This result is in agreement with experiments.展开更多

Based on EAM, it is found that only one kind of order-disorder transition (second-order transition) exists for AB alloy. Three groups of order-disorder transformation can be observed for the A(3)B or AB(3) compounds. For group I, the order-disorder is a completely first-order transition. For group II, the order-disorder transformation is a classical first-order transition. For group III, the order-disorder transformation is found to be a second-order transition. The lattice parameter variations have a significant effect on E-2 coefficient, which is related to the ordering energy. These results are in good agreement with experiments.展开更多
