The properties of AIMgB films with the varying deposition temperature was investigated. The deposition temperature was found to dominate the hardness of the amorphous asdeposited film. The hardness increases with increasing deposition tempera ture and may even exceed that of crystalline A1MgB14 mate rial. The high hardness may be attributed to the existence of randomly distributed B 12 icosahedra structure. Therefore, the thin film that was deposited on cemented carbide shows well cutting performances in turning Ti alloy bar. At the same time, an appropriate method of pretreatment is the key to ensure the coating tool with the excellent adhesion by impact fracture test.展开更多

It was found that the main features of the DSC thermograms (shape, relative separation and amplitude of the exothermic peaks characteristic for the precipitation of the Fe-(Si) solid solution and the transition metal borides) depend mainly on the composition of the precursor glass, and are only slightly affected by the heating rate between 20 and 80 K/min. The amplitude of the uprise of the magnetization in the TM curves (attributed to the precipitation of bcc-Fe(Si) and borides) decreases with increasing Nb-content. The Curietemperature of the precursor glasses. Tc(am1), the remainder amorphous phases, Tc(am2) and the bcc nanophase, Tc(n-Fe) are determined from the thermomagnetic curves. The shape of the TM curves is interpreted on the basis of the reactions describing the crystalIization of the hypo-eutectic Fe-B glasses.展开更多

The result shows that under certain technical conditions, nanocrystalline is fiound on the surface of amorphous Fe73.5 Cu1Nb3Si13.5B9 radiated by laser; the crystallization phase is α-Fe(Si) crystalline, and its size is about 10-20 nm; the nanocrystalline is uniformly distributed on amorphous base to keep the amorphous and crystallized phase in balance; the a mount of crystallization reaches 23% when the laser power is 300 W, the diameter of light spot is 20 mm, and the radiation speed is 20 mm/s. The phase balance can be controlled by adjusting the laser technology parameter. Laser radiation on the amorphous Fe73.5 Cu1Nb3Si13.5B9 alloy is an important technique for surface nanocrystallization of the amorphous alloys.展开更多

A Ti2A1Nb based alloy was brazed at 1 153-1 223 K for 600-3 000 s. The effects of brazing temperature (Tb) and time (tb) on the shear strength of the joints were investigated. The results showed that the joint strength was significantly affected by the reaction layer thickness. The optimum brazing parameters can be determined as follows: Tb=l 173 K, and tb=600 s. The maximum tensile strength of the joint obtained can reach 260 MPa. Furthermore, the activation energy Q and the growth velocity A0 of the reaction layer in the brazed joints were calculated to be 161.742 kJ/mol and 0.213 m2/s, respectively. The growth of the reaction layer (y) could be expressed by the expression: ya =0.213exp(-19 454/Tb)tb.展开更多

This behaviour showed that long range electron-electron interaction reduces the Density Of State of carriers (DOS) at the Fermi level and creates the Coulomb gap (CG). For T higher than a critical value of temperature TC, we obtained the Mott Variable Range Hopping regime with T-1/4, indicating that the DOS becomes almost constant in the vicinity of the Fermi level. The critical temperature TC decreases with nickel content in the alloys.展开更多

However, the role of Bd itself existing in Cz-based or other doping systems was still unclear. In order to clarify its intrinsic phosphorescent property, Bd was introduced as a vip into different organic matrixes including substituted Cz derivatives and polymers. The phosphorescence located in 560–620 nm was confirmed to be derived from Bd itself, which can be detected whatever Bd was doped in the crystal or amorphous state of Cz derivatives. The suitable energy gap between Cz derivatives and Bd is the key to achieve ultralong RTP of Bd. Additionally, when doped in polymers with plenty of hydrogen bonds, RTP of Bd with lifetime over 280 ms was easily obtained. Among them, Bd@PHEMA(poly(hydroxyethyl methacrylate) exhibited superior phosphorescence, with yellow afterglow lasting for over 2.5 s. Therefore, this work demonstrated that a new organic RTP phosphor, Bd, is discovered, and ultralong RTP of Bd can be achieved not only doped in Cz derivatives but also in polymers as the hosts.展开更多

The relation between the initial permeability and the microstructure of the annealed alloy has been discussed. The crystalline phase in annealed Fe73.5 Cu1 W3Si13.5B9 alloy is the α-Fe(Si) phase with DO3 superstructure. The volume fraction, Si content and degree of order of the αFe(Si) phase increase with increasing annealing temperature. In the temperature range of 490-570℃, the α-Fe(Si) phase has a size of 13 nm, and its grain number increases as the annealing temperature is increased. The DO3 ordered region in the α-Fe(Si) grain is spherical approximately, and its size increases as the annealing temperature increases. The size of the DO3 ordered region is 12.8 nm at the temperature of 570℃,which is close to that of the α-Fe(Si) grain. There is obvious change in the structure of the residual amorphous phase during annealing, and the nearest atomic distance and the short-range order of residual amorphous phase reach maximum and minimum at 530℃, respectively. The initial permeability of annealed Fe73.5 Cu1 W3Si13.5 B9 alloy is not only dependent on the size, volume fraction and Si content of the α-Fe(Si) phase but also related to the structure state of the residual amorphous phase.展开更多

The Curietemperature of the precursor glasses. Tc(am1), the remainder amorphous phases, Tc(am2) and the bcc nanophase, Tc(n-Fe) are determined from the thermomagnetic curves. The shape of the TM curves is interpreted on the basis of the reactions describing the crystalIization of the hypo-eutectic Fe-B glasses.

文摘Amorphous Ti-Cu-Zr-Ni filler foils with low melting point of 1 133 K were synthesized using a melt-spinning method in argon atmosphere. A Ti2A1Nb based alloy was brazed at 1 153-1 223 K for 600-3 000 s. The effects of brazing temperature (Tb) and time (tb) on the shear strength of the joints were investigated. The results showed that the joint strength was significantly affected by the reaction layer thickness. The optimum brazing parameters can be determined as follows: Tb=l 173 K, and tb=600 s. The maximum tensile strength of the joint obtained can reach 260 MPa. Furthermore, the activation energy Q and the growth velocity A0 of the reaction layer in the brazed joints were calculated to be 161.742 kJ/mol and 0.213 m2/s, respectively. The growth of the reaction layer (y) could be expressed by the expression: ya =0.213exp(-19 454/Tb)tb.
