Its calorimetric behavior was characterized by using differential scanning calorimeter. The metallic glasses were partially crystallized under continuous heating regime. Primary crystallization was studied through structural characterization of the amorphous and partially crystallized ribbons by means of conventional X ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy with selected area electron diffraction. The results show that, the as spun ribbons are fully amorphous and homogeneous on the micron scale, but contain high density of nanoscale quenched in clusters or crystallite embryos. Primary crystallization mainly leads to formation of two phase mixture of α Al nanocrystalline and residual amorphous phase. Precipitation of α Al nanoparticles is limited by build up and overlapped diffusion field of solute atoms with low diffusion rate. At the earlier stage of primary crystallization the crystal nuclei exhibit high density and growth rate. With the α Al crystal growing, the crystal growth rate decreases, and even at the later stage further crystallization into α Al crystal becomes difficult to occur due to thermal stabilization of the residual nickel and neodymium enriched amorphous phase, the saturated values of crystallized volume fraction and α Al crystal diameter getting to 20%30% and 515 nm.展开更多

The amorphous ribbon and the annealed samples were closely examined by means of differential scanning calorimetric, conventional X-ray diffraction and high resolution transmission electron microscopy with selected-area electron diffraction, with special interest in primary crystallization into α-Al nanocrystalline particles, in order to understand structural characteristics of Al-based amorphous/nanocrystalline alloys, and nucleation and grain growth mechanism on the nanometer scale during primary crystallization. The results show that, the as-prepared ribbons are fully amorphous and homogeneous in the micron scale, but contain high density of quenched-in clusters or crystallite embryos. Primary crystallization mainly leads to formation of two-phase mixture of a-Al crystal and residual amorphous phase. The annealed ribbons exposed isother-mally at HOP C for 5, 130 minutes and heated continuously up to less than 310℃ at 40℃ C/min consist of large amount of α-Al fcc crystal nanoparticles dispersed uniformly in an amorphous matrix. However, a very little amount of finer orthorhombic Al3Ni intermetalics particles exist in the annealed ribbons heated up to 310℃. During primary crystallization, the leading kinetic mechanics to impede growth of the α-Al crystal is soft impingement, instead of geometric impingement.展开更多

Based on the traditional solution-growth process, large bulk KDP crystals, usually with sizes up to600 × 600 mm2 so as to make a frequency doubler for the facility requirement loading highly flux of power laser, can be grown in standard Holden-type crystallizers, without spontaneous nucleation and visible defects, one to two orders of magnitude faster than by conventional methods. Pure water and KDP raw material with a few ion impurities such as Fe,Cr, and Al(less than 0.1 ppm) were used. The rapid-growth method includes extreme conditions such as temperature range from 60 to 35℃ , overcooling up to 5℃ , growth rates exceeding 10 mm/day, and crystal size up to 600 mm. The optical parameters of KDP crystals were determined. The optical properties of crystals determined indicate that they are of favorable quality for application in the facility.展开更多
