The results show that the alloy contains Au-rich solid solution, Ni-rich solid solution, and η- and -ωphases. The η-phase containing 90at%Cr possesses an orlhorhombic .structure with a = 0.448nm. b = 1.40nm and c = 1.21nm, and space group of Pmm2 or Pmmm. The ω-phase is an fee structure with a = 0.682nin and space group of Fm3m. The ω-phase dispersed in the alloy matrix plays an important role in increasing strength and wear resistance of the alloy.展开更多

The lnterrace residual strains in the composite are determined in terms of the shifts of HOLZ llnes. To unlqueIy evaluate the Iattlce parameters and the lattice strainsfrom an experimentaI HOLZ line pattern, the pIane stress approximation is employed to reduce the numberof adjustable parameters in the optimization procedure. The results obtained with this method are in goodagreement with other works. The possible expIanations for the high von Mises effective stresses in the matrixnear the whisker are discussed.展开更多

The spherical model was used as the starting model for the refinement. By fitting the calculated electron diffraction intensities to the experimental line scan profile, the coefficients in the surface harmonics expansion of the boundaries of atomic surface are refined. The refined parameters show that the fluctuations of the external boundary of atomic surface for Pd at n 0 can be as large as 0.2 nm. The boundaries of atomic surfaces for Mn show little fluctuation. In the present model, the number of unphysically short interatomic distances is significantly reduced in comparison with the spherical model.展开更多

It shows that the bonding charge is localized. The enhanced charge density in the middle of the aluminum-transition-metal （Al-TM） bond shown in the valence charge density＇ distribution is the characteristic of covalent bonding. Assuming that the shape of an atom is a sphere with covalent radius, the number of electrons that each atom gains or loses in 55 different pseudo-Mackay clusters （PMCs） was cal- culated based on the obtained valence charge density distribution. It indicates that almost all the atoms lose electrons except a few Pd atoms that are in some particular shells. It also shows that the atoms of an identified element could have different valences because of chemically and/or structurally different local environments in which the atoms situ- ate. Regardless of the topology and chemical occupancy, the number of valence electrons per atom in a cluster is close to 1.69. This strongly suggests that the pseudo-Mackay clusters are stabilized at a certain elec- tron concentration.展开更多

Three types of microstructures that are related to dislocation slip, twinning and shear banding have been quantitatively characterized by transmission electron microscopy （TEM） assisted by convergent beam electron diffraction （CBED） analysis. Microstructures originated from dislocation slip inside or outside the shear bands are characterized by low angle boundaries （〈15°） that are spaced in the nanometer scale, whereas most deformation twins are deviated from the perfect ∑3 coincidence （60°/〈111〉） up to the maximum angle of 9°. The quantitative structural characteristics are compared with those in conventionally deformed Cu at low strain rates, and allowed a quantitative analysis of the flow stress-structural parameter relationship.展开更多
