These diagrams play a key role in the science of alloys and therefore their reliability must be complete. However, the discovery of the “ordering-separation” phase transition, which showed that in binary alloys at certain temperatures the sign of the chemical interatomic interaction changes (and, consequently, the microstructure changes), forces us to reconsider our ideas about those areas. Currently, these areas are designated on diagrams as areas of a “disordered solid solution.” This article proposes, using transmission electron microscopy, to study all the so-called solid solution regions, and apply the results obtained to the studied regions of the phase diagram.展开更多

However, extensive research has been limited todeveloping ferroelectric materials with large electrocaloric effects near room temperature, preventing them from meetingdiverse refrigeration requirements. In this study, by leveraging the room-temperature phase diagram of the (PbLa)(ZrTi)O_(3)solution, we prepared a series of Pb_(0.775)La_(0.15)Zr_(x)Ti_(1−x)O_(3) bulk ceramics spanning the ferroelectric and relaxor ferroelectricphase regions. This enabled the attainment of various phase transition features and temperatures. Finally, largeelectrocaloric effects, coupled with adjustable operation temperatures ranging from 150 to −45℃, are successfullyachieved through manipulation of the Zr/Ti ratio. This comprehensive range of operation temperatures effectively addressesdiverse refrigeration application requirements, ranging from industrial equipment to freezer cabinets. This work not onlyunderscores the expansion of the electrocaloric refrigeration application domain but also proposes a material designstrategy tailored to meet these evolving demands.展开更多

Second, the equilibrium holographic network phase diagrams of AuCu3-type sublattice system may be used to describe systematic correlativity of the composition?temperature-dependent alloy gene arranging structures and complete thermodynamic properties, and to be a standard for studying experimental subequilibrium order-disorder transition. Third, the equilibrium transition of each alloy is a homogeneous single-phase rather than a heterogeneous two-phase, and there exists a single-phase boundary curve without two-phase region of the ordered and disordered phases; the composition and temperature of the top point on the phase-boundary curve are far away from the ones of the critical point of the AuCu3 compound.展开更多

First, the fourth barrier to hinder the progress of metal materials science is that today’s researchers do not understand that the Gibbs energy function of an alloy phase should be derived from Gibbs energy partition function constructed of alloy gene sequence and their Gibbs energy sequence. Second, the six rules for establishing alloy gene Gibbs energy partition function have been discovered, and it has been specially proved that the probabilities of structure units occupied at the Gibbs energy levels in the degeneracy factor for calculating configuration entropy should be degenerated as ones of component atoms occupied at the lattice points. Third, the main characteristics unexpected by today’s researchers are as follows. There exists a single-phase boundary curve without two-phase region coexisting by the ordered and disordered phases. The composition and temperature of the top point on the phase-boundary curve are far away from those of the critical point of the Au3Cu compound; At 0 K, the composition of the lowest point on the composition-dependent Gibbs energy curve is notably deviated from that of the Au3Cu compounds. The theoretical limit composition range of long range ordered Au3Cu-type alloys is determined by the first jumping order degree.展开更多

文摘We investigate a periodically driven Haldane model subjected to a two-stage driving scheme in the form of a step function.By using the Floquet theory,we obtain the topological phase diagram of the system.We also find that anomalous Floquet topological phases exist in the system.Focusing on examining the quench dynamics among topological phases,we analyze the site distribution of the 0-mode and p-mode edge states in long-period evolution after a quench.The results demonstrate that,under certain conditions,the site distribution of the 0-mode can be confined at the edge even in long-period evolution.Additionally,both the 0-mode and p-mode can recover and become confined at the edge in long-period evolution when the post-quench parameters(T,M_(2) /M_(1))in the phase diagram cross away from the phase boundary (M_(2)/ M_(1))=(6√3t2)/ M_(1)−1.Furthermore,we conclude that whether the edge state is confined at the edge in the long-period evolution after a quench depends on the similarity of the edge states before and after the quench.Our findings reveal some new characteristics of quench dynamics in a periodically driven system.

文摘Ferroelectric phase transition has been identified as a promising avenue for designing high-performanceelectrocaloric materials for zero-emission and solid-state refrigeration. However, extensive research has been limited todeveloping ferroelectric materials with large electrocaloric effects near room temperature, preventing them from meetingdiverse refrigeration requirements. In this study, by leveraging the room-temperature phase diagram of the (PbLa)(ZrTi)O_(3)solution, we prepared a series of Pb_(0.775)La_(0.15)Zr_(x)Ti_(1−x)O_(3) bulk ceramics spanning the ferroelectric and relaxor ferroelectricphase regions. This enabled the attainment of various phase transition features and temperatures. Finally, largeelectrocaloric effects, coupled with adjustable operation temperatures ranging from 150 to −45℃, are successfullyachieved through manipulation of the Zr/Ti ratio. This comprehensive range of operation temperatures effectively addressesdiverse refrigeration application requirements, ranging from industrial equipment to freezer cabinets. This work not onlyunderscores the expansion of the electrocaloric refrigeration application domain but also proposes a material designstrategy tailored to meet these evolving demands.

文摘We investigated the properties of the phase diagram of high-order susceptibilities,speed of sound,and polytropic index based on an extended Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model with an eight-quark scalar-vector interaction.Non-monotonic behavior was observed in all these quantities around the phase transition boundary,which also revealed the properties of the critical point.Further,this study indicated that the chiral phase transition boundary and critical point could vary depending on the scalarvector coupling constant G_(SV).At finite densities and temperatures,the negative G_(SV)term exhibited attractive interactions,which enhanced the critical point temperature and reduced the chemical potential.The G_(SV)term also affected the properties of the high-order susceptibilities,speed of sound,and polytropic index near the critical point.The non-monotonic(peak or dip)structures of these quantities shifted to a low baryon chemical potential(and high temperature)with a negative G_(SV).G_(SV)also changed the amplitude and range of the nonmonotonic regions.Therefore,the scalar-vector interaction was useful for locating the phase boundary and critical point in QCD phase diagram by comparing the experimental data.The study of the non-monotonic behavior of high-order susceptibilities,speed of sound,and polytropic index is of great interest,and further observations related to high-order susceptibilities,speed of sound,and polytropic index being found and applied to the search for critical points in heavy-ion collisions and the study of compact stars are eagerly awaited.

文摘Cubic boron nitride and hexagonal boron nitride are the two predominant crystalline structures of boron nitride.They can interconvert under varying pressure and temperature conditions.However,this transformation requires overcoming significant potential barriers in dynamics,which poses great difficulty in determining the c-BN/h-BN phase boundary.This study used high-pressure in situ differential thermal measurements to ascertain the temperature of h-BN/c-BN conversion within the commonly used pressure range(3-6 GPa)for the industrial synthesis of c-BN to constrain the P-T phase boundary of h-BN/c-BN in the pressure-temperature range as much as possible.Based on the analysis of the experimental data,it is determined that the relationship between pressure and temperature conforms to the following equation:P=a+1/bT.Here,P denotes the pressure(GPa)and T is the temperature(K).The coefficients are a=-3.8±0.8 GPa and b=229.8±17.1 GPa/K.These findings call into question existing high-pressure and high-temperature phase diagrams of boron nitride,which seem to overstate the phase boundary temperature between c-BN and h-BN.The BN phase diagram obtained from this study can provide critical temperature and pressure condition guidance for the industrial synthesis of c-BN,thus optimizing synthesis efficiency and product performance.

文摘The thermodynamics in zinc hydrometallurgical process was studied using a chemical equilibrium modeling code(GEMS) to predict the zinc solubility and construct the species distribution and predominance diagrams for the Zn(Ⅱ)-NH3-H2O and Zn(Ⅱ)-NH3-Cl--H2O system.The zinc solubilities in ammoniacal solutions were also measured with equilibrium experiments,which agree well with the predicted values.The distribution and predominance diagrams show that ammine and hydroxyl ammine complexes are the main aqueous Zn species,Zn(NH3)24-is predominant in weak alkaline solution for both Zn(Ⅱ)-NH3-H2O and Zn(Ⅱ)-NH3-Cl--H2O systems.In Zn(Ⅱ)-NH3-Cl--H2O system,the ternary complexes containing ammonia and chloride increase the zinc solubility in neutral solution.There are three zinc compounds,Zn(OH)2,Zn(OH)1.6Cl0.4 and Zn(NH3)2Cl2,on which the zinc solubility depends,according to the total ammonia,chloride and zinc concentration.These thermodynamic diagrams show the effects of ammonia,chloride and zinc concentration on the zinc solubility,which can provide thermodynamic references for the zinc hydrometallurgy.

As clicking each network point, the holographic information of three structure levels for the designed alloy may be readily obtained: the phase constitution and fraction, phase arranging structure and properties of organization; the composition, alloy gene arranging structure and properties of each phase and the electronic structures and properties of alloy genes. It will create a new era for network designing advanced alloys.

文摘In the course of the basic research on the ammonia-evaporation reaction of manganese monoxide (MnO), hydroxyl manganese chloride (Mn2(OH)3Cl) was found. The solubility and phase diagrams of the hydroxyl manganese chloride were investigated. The aqueous thermostat and vibrating bed were used to determine the solubility of hydroxyl manganese chloride in water, ammonium chloride and manganese chloride system, and the phase diagrams of multicomponent system were drawn. The research results indicate that hydroxyl manganese chloride has been produced in laboratory and is in favor of the solid-liquid separation at high temperature.
文摘An effective method was proposed to establish the continuous cooling transformation(CCT) diagrams of aluminum alloys using in situ voltage measurement.The voltage change of samples with predefined dimension was recorded under the constant current state during continuous cooling.Solutionizing time,together with starting and finishing temperatures of phase transformation of the alloy can be obtained from relationships of voltage vs time and temperature.A critical cooling rate without detectable phase transition during continuous cooling can be determined.Continuous cooling transformation diagrams of tested samples can be established conveniently based on these results.Microstructure observation and differential scanning calorimetry(DSC) testing were applied to verify the reliability of continuous cooling transformation diagram.

文摘Taking AuCu3-type sublattice system as an example, three discoveries have been presented: First, the third barrier hindering the progress in metal materials science is that researchers have got used to recognizing experimental phenomena of alloy phase transitions during extremely slow variation in temperature by equilibrium thinking mode and then taking erroneous knowledge of experimental phenomena as selected information for establishing Gibbs energy function and so-called equilibrium phase diagram. Second, the equilibrium holographic network phase diagrams of AuCu3-type sublattice system may be used to describe systematic correlativity of the composition?temperature-dependent alloy gene arranging structures and complete thermodynamic properties, and to be a standard for studying experimental subequilibrium order-disorder transition. Third, the equilibrium transition of each alloy is a homogeneous single-phase rather than a heterogeneous two-phase, and there exists a single-phase boundary curve without two-phase region of the ordered and disordered phases; the composition and temperature of the top point on the phase-boundary curve are far away from the ones of the critical point of the AuCu3 compound.

文摘Taking Au3Cu-type sublattice system as an example, three discoveries have been presented. First, the fourth barrier to hinder the progress of metal materials science is that today’s researchers do not understand that the Gibbs energy function of an alloy phase should be derived from Gibbs energy partition function constructed of alloy gene sequence and their Gibbs energy sequence. Second, the six rules for establishing alloy gene Gibbs energy partition function have been discovered, and it has been specially proved that the probabilities of structure units occupied at the Gibbs energy levels in the degeneracy factor for calculating configuration entropy should be degenerated as ones of component atoms occupied at the lattice points. Third, the main characteristics unexpected by today’s researchers are as follows. There exists a single-phase boundary curve without two-phase region coexisting by the ordered and disordered phases. The composition and temperature of the top point on the phase-boundary curve are far away from those of the critical point of the Au3Cu compound; At 0 K, the composition of the lowest point on the composition-dependent Gibbs energy curve is notably deviated from that of the Au3Cu compounds. The theoretical limit composition range of long range ordered Au3Cu-type alloys is determined by the first jumping order degree.

Informational digital diagrams provide a method for transitional weather prediction, a problem for present extrapolative analysis system.
