The model considers the thermal phenomena involved in the process, including conduction, radiation, and convection. A formula for the calculation of the heat conductivity of a sintering system containing solid phase, liquid phase, and gas phase is given. Due to the continuous movement of the laser beam, a local coordinate system centered on the laser beam is used to simplify the analytical calculation. Assuming that it is approximately a Gaussian laser beam, the heat conduction equation is resolved based on the assumption of the thermal insulating boundary conditions and the fixed thermal physical parameters. The FORTRAN language is employed to compile the program to simulate the temperature field in the direct copper powder sintering process. It shows a good agreement with the preliminary experimental results.[KH3/4D]展开更多

High-performance flexible strain sensors attached on clothing or human skin are required for potential applications in the entertainment,health monitoring, and medical care sectors. In this work,conducting copper electrodes were fabricated onpolydimethylsiloxane as sensitive stretchable microsensors by integrating laser direct writing and transfer printing approaches. The copper electrode was reduced from copper salt using laser writing rather than the general approach of printing with pre-synthesized copper or copper oxide nanoparticles. An electrical resistivity of 96 l X cm was achieved on 40-lm-thick Cu electrodes on flexible substrates. The motion sensing functionality successfully demonstrated a high sensitivity and mechanical robustness.This in situ fabrication method leads to a path toward electronic devices on flexible substrates.展开更多

The microstructural evolution along the building direction and the room-temperature tensile properties along the horizontal and vertical directions(building direction) were systematically studied through SEM and OM. EBSD and XRD were utilized to accurately demonstrate the texture of the α and β phases. The results showed that the α phase presented a low texture intensity, which was ascribed to the weak textured β grain with near-equiaxed morphology, since there are Burgers orientation relationships during the β →α transition. In addition, numerical simulation, combined with the CET curve of Ti60 alloy considering the effect of multi-composition,was utilized to elucidate the formation mechanism of the near-equiaxed β grains. Furthermore, according to the solidification theory, we proposed that the solidification temperature range ΔTfwas more accurate than the growth restriction factor Q in predicting the formation tendency of equiaxed β grain in different titanium alloys. Tensile results showed that the horizontal and vertical samples had similar strength,while the former exhibited larger elongation than the latter. The effect of the near-equiaxed β grain and the internal α phase on mechanical properties were revealed at last.展开更多

文摘Under the laser directed energy deposition(LDED)process,the rapid melting and solidification usually lead to the emergence of pores and coarse columnar dendrites,which in turn compromise the properties of the deposited alloys.This study introduced in-situ ultrasonic rolling(UR)as an innovative method to enhance the corrosion resistance of LDED specimens,and the microstructural characteristics and their correlation with corrosion resistance were deeply investigated.The findings reveal that the LDED-UR specimen exhibits a reduction in both the fraction and size of pores.Under the influence of severe plastic deformation generated by LDED-UR process,fully equiaxed grains appear with a reduced average size of 28.61μm(compared to63.98μm for the LDED specimen with columnar grains).The electrochemical corrosion resistance of the LDED-UR specimen is significantly enhanced compared to the LDED specimen.This enhanced corrosion resistance can be attributed to the low fraction of small-sized pores,the fine and uniformly distributed Cr-enriched ferrite phase,and the formation of a compact and thick passive film due to dense grain boundaries.The insight of the correlation between microstructure and corrosion behavior opens up a new pathway to enhance the corrosion resistance of LDED specimens.

文摘Able to precisely control and manipulate materials'states at micro/nano-scale level,femtosecond(fs)laser micro/nano processing technology has undergone tremendous development over the past three decades.Free-forming three-dimensional(3D)microscale functional devices and inducing fascinating and unique physical or chemical phenomena have granted this technology powerful versatility that no other technology can match.As this technology advances rapidly in various fields of application,some key challenges have emerged and remain to be urgently addressed.This review firstly introduces the fundamental principles for understanding how fs laser pulses interact with materials and the associated unique phenomena in section 2.Then micro/nano-fabrication in transparent materials by fs laser processing is presented in section 3.Thereafter,several high efficiency/throughput fabrication methods as well as pulse-shaping techniques are listed in sections 4 and 5 reviews four-dimensional(4D)and nanoscale printing realized by fs laser processing technology.Special attention is paid to the heterogeneous integration(HI)of functional materials enabled by fs laser processing in section 6.Several intriguing examples of 3D functional micro-devices created by fs laser-based manufacturing methods such as microfluidics,lab-on-chip,micro-optics,micro-mechanics,micro-electronics,micro-bots and micro-biodevices are reviewed in section 7.Finally,a summary of the review and a perspective are proposed to explore the challenges and future opportunities for further betterment of fs laser micro/nano processing technology.

文摘Solution and aging treatment were conducted on the laser directed energy deposition(LDED)-prepared carbon nanotubes(CNTs)-reinforced WE43(CNTs/WE43)layers to optimize their microstructure and surface properties in this study.The microstructure of the WE43 and CNTs/WE43 layers was systematically compared.The dissolution of divorced eutectics at the grain boundaries was retarded by CNTs during solution treatment.The spot segregation composed of Mg_(24)Y_(5),CNTs,and Zr cores in the solution treated CNTs/WE43 layer presented a slight decreasing in Y content.The grain growth of both types of layers underwent three stages:slow,rapid,and steady-state.The significant inhibitory effect of CNTs on the grain growth of the LDED WE43 matrix was more pronounced than the promoting effect of temperature,resulting in a 47%increase at 510℃ and a 35%increase at 540℃ in the grain growth exponent compared to the WE43 layers at 510℃.During the subsequent aging treatment at 225℃,the precipitation sequences from plate-shaped β″to plate-shaped and globular β′ were observed in both types of layers.CNTs can facilitate an increase in the nucleation rate of precipitates,but without accelerating precipitation hardening rate.The long and short diameters of the precipitates in peak-aged state were decreased by 48.5%and 43.1%by addition of CNTs,respectively.The wear resistance of both the WE43 and CNTs/WE43 layers can be significantly enhanced through solution and aging treatment.The enhancement in wear resistance for the CNTs/WE43 layers is considerably greater than that of the WE43 layers.

文摘To address the issues of low accuracy,long time consumption,and high cost of the traditional temperature prediction methods for laser directed energy deposition(LDED),a machine learning model combined with numerical simulation was proposed to predict the temperature during LDED.A finite element(FE)thermal analysis model was established.The model's accuracy was verified through in-situ monitoring experiments,and a basic database for the predictive model was obtained based on FE simulations.Temperature prediction was performed using a generalized regression neural network(GRNN).To reduce dependence on human experience during GRNN parameter tuning and to enhance model prediction performance,an improved adaptive step-size fruit fly optimization algorithm(ASSFOA)was introduced.Finally,the prediction performance of ASSFOA-GRNN model was compared with that of back-propagation neural network model,GRNN model,and fruit fly optimization algorithm(FOA)-GRNN model.The evaluation metrics included the root mean square error(RMSE),mean absolute error(MAE),coefficient of determination(R^(2)),training time,and prediction time.Results show that the ASSFOA-GRNN model exhibits optimal performance regarding RMSE,MAE,and R^(2) indexes.Although its prediction efficiency is slightly lower than that of the FOA-GRNN model,its prediction accuracy is significantly better than that of the other models.This proposed method can be used for temperature prediction in LDED process and also provide a reference for similar methods.

文摘Laser-directed energy deposition(LDED)technology has demonstrated great potential for the rapid and integrated fabrication of nickel-based superalloy components.The plastic deformation-assisted method is crucial for achieving grain refinement and microstructural homogeneity in LDED-fabricated superalloys.However,existing methods suffer from uniformity constraints owing to their high deformation resistance,which significantly limits their application in load-bearing components.To address these issues,a synchronous-hot-forging-assisted(SHFA)LDED additive manufacturing method was proposed,and its effects on the macroscopic morphology,microstructure,and mechanical properties of GH4169 nickel-based alloy specimens were systematically compared.The results demonstrated up to 30.1%average plastic deformation in hot-forging components while maintaining good surface flatness.The synergistic effect of dislocation accumulation and dynamic recrystallization during hot forging enables dramatic grain refinement,reducing the average grain size by 89.1%(from 168.5μm to 18.4μm)while weakening texture intensity from 15.31 to 2.15,ultimately promoting equiaxed grain formation.The pores of hot-forging components changed from fine round to flat,the porosity decreased from 0.264%to 0.089%,and the densification level was significantly improved.With the increase in the synchronous hot-forging force,the average ultimate tensile strength of hot-forging components can reach 1175.1 MPa,while the anisotropy difference is gradually weakened.The SHFA-LDED process not only achieves excellent grain refinement and microstructure homogenization but also enhances mechanical properties,providing a new technical path for the additive manufacturing of high-performance nickel-based superalloy components.

文摘High-density interconnect(HDI)soft electronics that can integrate multiple individual functions into one miniaturized monolithic system is promising for applications related to smart healthcare,soft robotics,and human-machine interactions.However,despite the recent advances,the development of three-dimensional(3D)soft electronics with both high resolution and high integration is still challenging because of the lack of efficient manufacturing methods to guarantee interlayer alignment of the high-density vias and reliable interlayer electrical conductivity.Here,an advanced 3D laser printing pathway,based on femtosecond laser direct writing(FLDW),is demonstrated for preparing liquid metal(LM)-based any layer HDI soft electronics.FLDW technology,with the characteristics of high spatial resolution and high precision,allows the maskless fabrication of high-resolution embedded LM microchannels and high-density vertical interconnect accesses for 3D integrated circuits.High-aspect-ratio blind/through LM microstructures are formed inside the elastomer due to the supermetalphobicity induced during laser ablation.The LM-based HDI circuit featuring high resolution(~1.5μm)and high integration(10-layer electrical interconnection)is achieved for customized soft electronics,including various customized multilayer passive electric components,soft multilayer circuit,and cross-scale multimode sensors.The 3D laser printing method provides a versatile approach for developing chip-level soft electronics.

文摘The fabrication of nanostructures beyond the diffraction limit has been the focus of nanotechnology research.Scanning probe microscopy(SPM)has attracted the attention of researchers for the detection and manufacture of nanostructures.Here,a nanosecond laser irradiated a cantilevered scanning nearfield optical microscopy(SNOM)tip and directly wrote subwavelength nanostructures on Au nano-film,without the assistance of a mask or vacuum atmosphere.This method was stable and reproducible for long-term use.The in situ morphology detection was conducted after the writing process by atomic force microscope(AFM).A feature linewidth of approximately 83.6 nm(<k/6)was confirmed using scanning electron microscopy(SEM).Linewidth of(167.8±6.6)nm was reproduced stably.Theoretical calculations revealed that the elliptical heat distribution under the SNOM tip generated different linewidths when the tip scanned vertically and horizontally.It also interpreted the influential mechanism of single-pulse energy.The simulated linewidths were consistent with the fabricated linewidths.According to the elemental analysis by energy dispersive spectrometer(EDS),the mechanism of this method can be interpreted asmelting of the Au nano-film instead of oxidation.Owing to its high positioning,machining accuracy,and instantaneous energy,this technology is considered convenient and economical for nanostructure fabrication and is proposed to be applied in nanolithography on multiple materials in the future.
文摘Laser processing technologies enable the precise fabrication of arbitrary structures and devices with broad applications in micro-optics,micro-mechanics,and biomedicine.However,its adoption is limited by the large size,complexity,high cost,and low flexibility of optical systems.Metasurfaces enable precise multidimensional control of light fields,aligning well with the development trend toward compact,high-performance optical systems.Here,we review several recent studies on the application of metasurfaces in laser processing technologies,including 3D nanolithography,direct laser writing,and laser cutting.Metasurfaces provide an integrated operational platform with exceptional performance,poised to disrupt conventional laser processing workflows.This combination presents significant cost efficiency and substantial development potential,with promising applications in areas such as imaging,optical storage,advanced sensing,and space on-orbit manufacturing.
文摘A mathematical model is developed for simulating the heat transferring behavior in a direct metal laser sintering process. The model considers the thermal phenomena involved in the process, including conduction, radiation, and convection. A formula for the calculation of the heat conductivity of a sintering system containing solid phase, liquid phase, and gas phase is given. Due to the continuous movement of the laser beam, a local coordinate system centered on the laser beam is used to simplify the analytical calculation. Assuming that it is approximately a Gaussian laser beam, the heat conduction equation is resolved based on the assumption of the thermal insulating boundary conditions and the fixed thermal physical parameters. The FORTRAN language is employed to compile the program to simulate the temperature field in the direct copper powder sintering process. It shows a good agreement with the preliminary experimental results.[KH3/4D]

文摘With the rapid developments of marine resource exploitation,mounts of marine engineering equipment are settled on the ocean.When it is not possible to move the damaged equipment into a dry dock,welding operations must be performed in underwater environments.The underwater laser welding/cladding technique is a promising and advanced technique which could be widely applied to the maintenance of the damaged equipment.The present review paper aims to present a critical analysis and engineering overview of the underwater laser welding/cladding technique.First,we elaborated recent advances and key issues of drainage nozzles all over the world.Next,we presented the underwater laser processing and microstructural-mechanical behavior of repaired marine materials.Then,the newly developed powder-feeding based and wire-feeding based underwater laser direct metal deposition techniques were reviewed.The differences between the convection,conduction,and the metallurgical kinetics in the melt pools during underwater laser direct metal deposition and in-air laser direct metal deposition were illustrated.After that,several challenges that need to be overcame to achieve the full potential of the underwater laser welding/cladding technique are proposed.Finally,suggestions for future directions to aid the development of underwater laser welding/cladding technology and underwater metallurgical theory are provided.The present review will not only enrich the knowledge in the underwater repair technology,but also provide important guidance for the potential applications of the technology on the marine engineering.

文摘Stretchable electronic sensing devices are defining the path toward wearable electronics. High-performance flexible strain sensors attached on clothing or human skin are required for potential applications in the entertainment,health monitoring, and medical care sectors. In this work,conducting copper electrodes were fabricated onpolydimethylsiloxane as sensitive stretchable microsensors by integrating laser direct writing and transfer printing approaches. The copper electrode was reduced from copper salt using laser writing rather than the general approach of printing with pre-synthesized copper or copper oxide nanoparticles. An electrical resistivity of 96 l X cm was achieved on 40-lm-thick Cu electrodes on flexible substrates. The motion sensing functionality successfully demonstrated a high sensitivity and mechanical robustness.This in situ fabrication method leads to a path toward electronic devices on flexible substrates.

文摘Lightweight aluminum(Al)alloys have been widely used in frontier fields like aerospace and automotive industries,which attracts great interest in additive manufacturing(AM)to process high-value Al parts.As a mainstream AM technique,laser-directed energy deposition(LDED)shows good scalability to meet the requirements for large-format component manufacturing and repair.However,LDED Al alloys are highly challenging due to their inherent poor printability(e.g.low laser absorption,high oxidation sensitivity and cracking tendency).To further promote the development of LDED high-performance Al alloys,this review offers a deep understanding of the challenges and strategies to improve printability in LDED Al alloys.The porosity,cracking,distortion,inclusions,element evaporation and resultant inferior mechanical properties(worse than laser powder bed fusion)are the key challenges in LDED Al alloys.Processing parameter optimizations,in-situ alloy design,reinforcing particle addition and field assistance are the efficient approaches to improving the printability and performance of LDED Al alloys.The underlying correlations between processes,alloy innovation,characteristic microstructures,and achievable performances in LDED Al alloys are discussed.The benchmark mechanical properties and primary strengthening mechanism of LDED Al alloys are summarized.This review aims to provide a critical and in-depth evaluation of current progress in LDED Al alloys.Future opportunities and perspectives in LDED high-performance Al alloys are also outlined.

文摘Flexible and wearable humidity sensors play a vital role in daily point-of-care diagnosis and noncontact human-machine interactions.However,achieving a facile and high-speed fabrication approach to realizing flexible humidity sensors remains a challenge.In this work,a wearable capacitive-type Ga_(2)O_(3)/liquid metal-based humidity sensor is demonstrated by a one-step laser direct writing technique.Owing to the photothermal effect of laser,the Ga_(2)O_(3)-wrapped liquid metal particles can be selectively sintered and converted from insulative to conductive traces with a resistivity of 0.19Ω·cm,while the untreated regions serve as active sensing layers in response to moisture changes.Under 95%relative humidity,the humidity sensor displays a highly stable performance along with rapid response and recover time.Utilizing these superior properties,the Ga_(2)O_(3)/liquid metal-based humidity sensor is able to monitor human respiration rate,as well as skin moisture of the palm under different physiological states for healthcare monitoring.

文摘Near-equiaxed β grain was achieved in the near-α Ti60(Ti-5.7Al-4.0Sn-3.5Zr-0.4Mo-0.4Si-0.4Nb-1.0Ta-0.05C) titanium alloy via laser directed energy deposition(LDED). The microstructural evolution along the building direction and the room-temperature tensile properties along the horizontal and vertical directions(building direction) were systematically studied through SEM and OM. EBSD and XRD were utilized to accurately demonstrate the texture of the α and β phases. The results showed that the α phase presented a low texture intensity, which was ascribed to the weak textured β grain with near-equiaxed morphology, since there are Burgers orientation relationships during the β →α transition. In addition, numerical simulation, combined with the CET curve of Ti60 alloy considering the effect of multi-composition,was utilized to elucidate the formation mechanism of the near-equiaxed β grains. Furthermore, according to the solidification theory, we proposed that the solidification temperature range ΔTfwas more accurate than the growth restriction factor Q in predicting the formation tendency of equiaxed β grain in different titanium alloys. Tensile results showed that the horizontal and vertical samples had similar strength,while the former exhibited larger elongation than the latter. The effect of the near-equiaxed β grain and the internal α phase on mechanical properties were revealed at last.
文摘To improve the mechanical properties of the parts fabricated by Laser Direct Metal Shaping(LDMS),it is of great significance to understand the distribution regularities of transient temperature field during LDMS process.Based on the“el-ement birth and death”technique of finite element method,a three-dimensional multi-track and multi-layer model for the transient temperature field analysis of LDMS is developed by ANSYS Parametric Design Language(APDL)for the first time.In the fab-ricated modal,X-direction parallel reciprocating scanning paths is introduced.Using the same process parameters,the simulation results show good agreement with the microstructure features of samples which fabricated by LDMS.
