The extruding process was simulated using the fi- nite element method (FEM). The effect of the friction coefficients on the relative slippage of the contact surfaces between the internal and external metals was investigated, and the stress distribu- tion in the extruded specimen was studied. The simulation results reveal that the relative slippage de- creases with increasing friction coefficient at the contact surface of the two metals. However, the relative slippage increases rapidly with increasing friction coefficient at the contact surface between the specimen and die. No axial tensile stress appears in the plastic deformation zone near the axis, indicating that the inner fracture will not occur in internal metal in the hydrostatic extrusion process as the concave die with equal-strain contour lines is used. The experimental test reveals that the met- allurgical bond is formed between Cu and A1 when the friction coefficient at the surface between the two metals is 0. 3 and the extrusion ratio is 12.展开更多

The effects of deposition temperature, precursor, and H2 concentration are investigated to optimize Cu deposition. Continuous metallic Cu films are deposited on Ru substrates at 190 ℃ when a 0.002 mol/L Cu precursor is introduced with 0.75 mol/L H2. A Cu precursor concentration higher than 0.002 mol/L is found to have negative effects on the surface qualities of Cu films. For a H2 concentration above 0.56 mol/L, the root-mean-square (RMS) roughness of a Cu film decreases as the H2 concentration increases. Finally, a 20-nm thick Cu film with a smooth surface, which is required as a seed layer in advanced interconnects, is successfully deposited at a high H2 concentration (0.75 tool/L).展开更多

The ZnTe/ZnTe-Cu buffer layers affect the solar cell conversion efficiencv and its fill factor.展开更多

It was found that the coercivity in Ni layer buffered samples decreases with increasing Ni layer thickness, while that in Cr layer buffered ones increases with increasing Cr layer thickness, leading to a large difference in field sensitivity of their giant magnetoresistance (GMR) properties. X-ray diffraction and high resolution transmission electron microscope images exhibited that there is a strong fcc (111) texture in the samples with Ni buffer layer. But there are only randomly oriented potycrystalline grains in Cr buffered sandwiches. According to atomic force microscope topography, the surface roughness of Cr buffered sandwiches is smaller than that of Ni buffered ones. It is demonstrated that buffer layer influences both magnetic and structural properties in Co/Cu/Co sandwiches as well as their GMR characteristics.展开更多

The transverse and longitudinal GMI effect in patterned FeSiB/Cu/FeSiB tri-layer films with the change of external magnetic field and frequency were studied at the same time. The change of the impedance of the films with the external magnetic fieldand frequency was shown. Comparing the longitudinal and transverse effect, the transverse effect has a larger linear range from zero magnetic field to a quite large magnetic field at all frequencies, and the change still were not saturated until the external magnetic field reached 1.2×104A/m, which illustrated that the films can be utilized to detect larger magnetic fields than now presented GMI sensors.展开更多

The results show that the thermal conductance is about ten times larger than that of Cu- CNT interface. The enhanced thermal conductance is due to the larger contact area introduced by the graphene layer and the stronger thermal transfer ability of the Cu-gCNT interface. From the linear increasing thermal conductance with the increasing total contact area, an effective contact area of such an interface can be defined.展开更多
