Thermal stability and structure of Dy-Gd-Co-Al alloys were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry and X-ray diffraction, respectively. The results show that the Dy-Gd-Co-Al alloys have good glass-formation ability, and the Dy31Gd25Co20Al24 alloy can be readily cast into full glassy rods up to 5 mm in diameter. The glass-forming ability of multicomponent alloys was greatly dependent on their chemical interaction and the equivalent bond parameters among atoms such as equivalent electronegativity difference, equivalent atomic size parameter. The Dy (Gd)-based bulk amorphous alloys could be expected as potential functional materials.展开更多

The phosphors were characterized with X-ray diffractometer, thermogravimetric analysis and different scanning calorimeter, scanning electron microscopy, and photoluminescence spectrofluorimeter. Several peaks at 351, 389, 425, 452, and 472 nm appeared in photoluminescence excitation spectrum, which matched well with the emission of the ultraviolet (UV) and blue-light emitting diode (LED) chips. Upon excitation at 389 nm UV light, intense emissions centered at 484, 575 and 668 nm were attributed to the transitions of 4F9/2→6H15/2, 4F9/2→6H13/2 and 4F9/2→6H11/2 of Dy3+, respectively. The chromaticity coordinates and correlative color temperatures have been calculated and presented in the Commission International de I’Eclairage (CIE) diagrams. The results indicated that Gd1.9(MoO4)3:Dy0.13+ with CIE coordinates of (x=0.38, y=0.41) and the correlative color temperature of 4134 K is a potential candidate for white LEDs.展开更多

The alloy exhibits a considerable age hardening effect up to 250℃. Increasing the aging temperature leads to a shorter aging time to reach the peak hardness and a lower peak hardness. The tensile results show that the peak-aged specimens have higher tensile strength at the temperature below 200℃. However, with the increase of temperature further, the tensile strength decreases dramatically and elongation increases drastically. The loss in tensile strength and increase in elongation at high temperature are possibly associated with the instability of secondary precipitates. The fracture mechanism of alloy transfers from intergranular to transgranular with the increase of experimental temperature.展开更多
