For the composite particles with mean size less than 10 nm, their SAED pattern is found to be different from either the pattern of pure Fe oxide nanoparticles or that of pure Au particles. Based on the fact that the ring diameters of these composite particles fit the characteristic relation for the fcc structure, the Au atoms on surfaces of the concerned particles are supposed to pack in a way more tightly than they usually do in pure Au nanoparticles. The driving force for this is the coherency strain which enables the shell material at the heterostructured interface to adapt the lattice parameters of the core.展开更多

The characterization by means of powder X ray diffraction (XRD) and selected area electron diffraction (SAED) showed it crystallized in a orthorhombic crystal system with a =0.896 9(7) nm, b =0.701 1(8) nm, c =0.596(1) nm. The possible space group is Pnnm (58) or Pnn2 (34). The compound crystallizes in a metastable phase during the synthesis process depending on temperature and crystallization time.展开更多

Various tests such as hardness, tensi ng either at three or four consecutive temperatures） on pitated phases in an AA2090 alloy have been evaluated e, electrical resistance, differential scanning calorimetric （DSC）, and transmission electron microscopy （TEM） have been performed. The results show that the ultimate tensile strength （UTS） and the yield strength of the samples aged at four consecutive temperatures （i.e. natural aging＋190℃＋150℃＋100℃） can be increased approximately to 660 and 610 MPa, respectively. It is also found that precipitation of T1 phase occurs during multiple aging process of the alloy and the higher amounts of enthalpies shown in DSC charts are linked to higher volume fraction of this precipitate. Furthermore, TEM observations reveal that T1 phase has plate shape morphology and its crystal structure is in the form of hcp with lattice parameters of a=0.467 nm and c=0.878 nm.展开更多
