The fine a aggregates are uniformly formed within fl grains by nucleating at the to particles or β/ω interfaces. At higher temperature, the formation of to phase is avoided and the a lamellae are precipitated at the preferred site of grain boundary and then within the matrix. The highest hardness values are found when the alloys are aged at 450 ℃ for fl condition and 350 ℃ for (α+β) condition.展开更多

We report the establishment of the first UED system in China. Employing this UED apparatus, both the coherent and the concurrent thermal lattice motions in an aluminium thin-film, trigged by ultrafast laser heating, have been observed. These results demonstrate its ability to directly measure a sub-milli-angstrom lattice spacing change on a sub-picosecond time scale.展开更多

Few studies have reported about hsianghualite during these years. The authors measured the complex morphology of hsianghualite and found a twin structure in hsianghualite crystal by electron backscattered diffraction (EBSD) technique. The pole figures were used to analyze the twin relationship. The twin law of hsianghualite is the twin plane {110}. This twin law is the same as that proposed by crystallographic theoretic analysis in the previous work. EBSD experi- mental study verified our theoretic analysis of the twin structure in the previous work. The twin structure in hsianghualite has never been reported since the discovery of this mineral in 1958.展开更多
