And free energy, microstructures, compositions and volume fractions of pre-precipitation phase and equilibrium phase were analyzed. The simulation results indicate that nonstoichiometric Llo pre-precipitation phase formed first, and then would gradually transform into L12 equilibrium phase. It is discovered that the phase transformation process was closely related to free energy and interatomic potentials. Additionally, it is revealed that free energy of Llo pre-precipitation phase was higher and interatomic potential was smaller than that of L12 equilibrium phase. Therefore, it is concluded that Llo phase was unstable, and phase transformation would occur to L12 which was more stable.展开更多

The results show that the precipitation peak temperature of secondary Laves phases is 925 ℃. Below 925 ℃, the volume fraction of secondary Laves phases increases with the rise of the temperature, and its morphology changes from granular to thin-film;above 925 ℃, the volume fraction of secondary Laves phases shows an opposite trend to temperature, and its morphology changes from thin-film to granular. A detailed explanation through linear density (ρ) is provided that the influence of secondary Laves phases at the grain boundaries (GBs) on notch sensitivity depends on the coupling competition effect of their size, quantity, and morphology. Notably, the granular Laves phases are more beneficial to improving the notch sensitivity of the alloy compared with thin-film Laves phases. Granular secondary Laves phases can promote the formation of γ′ phases depletion zone to improve the ability of GBs to accommodate high strain localization, and effectively inhibit the crack initiation and propagation.展开更多

In this paper, the basic principles and methods of SPE and its new applications in different areas are reviewed.
文摘As an advanced device for observing atmospheric winds,the spaceborne Doppler Asymmetric Spatial Heterodyne(DASH)interferometer also encounters challenges associated with phase distortion,par-ticularly in limb sounding scenarios.This paper discusses interferogram modeling and phase distortion cor-rection techniques for spaceborne DASH interferometers.The modeling of phase distortion interferograms with and without Doppler shift for limb observation was conducted,and the effectiveness of the analytical expression was verified through numerical simulation.The simulation results indicate that errors propagate layer by layer while using the onion-peeling inversion algorithm to handle phase-distorted interferograms.In contrast,the phase distortion correction algorithm can achieve effective correction.This phase correction method can be successfully applied to correct phase distortions in the interferograms of the spaceborne DASH interferometer,providing a feasible solution to enhance its measurement accuracy.

文摘The grain boundary diffusion process(GBDP)has proven to be an effective method for enhancing the coercivity of sintered Nd-Fe-B magnets.However,the limited diffusion depth and thicker shell struc-ture have impeded the further development of magnetic properties.Currently,the primary debates re-garding the mechanism of GBDP with Tb revolve around the dissolution-solidification mechanism and the atomic substitution mechanism.To clarify this mechanism,the microstructure evolution of sintered Nd-Fe-B magnets during the heating process of GBDP has been systematically studied by quenching at different tem peratures.In this study,it was found that the formation of TbFe_(2) phase is related to the dis-solution of _(2)Fe_(14)B grains during GBDP with Tb.The theory of mixing heat and phase separation further confirms that the Nd_(2)Fe_(14)B phase dissolves to form a mixed phase of Nd and TbFe_(2),which then solidifies into the(Nd,Tb)_(2)Fe_(14)B phase.Based on the discovery of the TbFe_(2) phase,the dissolution-solidification mechanism is considered the primary mechanism for GBDP.This is supported by the elemental content of the two typical core-shell structures observed.

文摘By utilizing phase field method combined with analysis on free energy and interatomic potentials, pre-precipitation phase formation and transformation process of Ni0.75Al0.05Fe0.2 alloy in early precipitation stage during the ageing process under 1 000 K were studied. And free energy, microstructures, compositions and volume fractions of pre-precipitation phase and equilibrium phase were analyzed. The simulation results indicate that nonstoichiometric Llo pre-precipitation phase formed first, and then would gradually transform into L12 equilibrium phase. It is discovered that the phase transformation process was closely related to free energy and interatomic potentials. Additionally, it is revealed that free energy of Llo pre-precipitation phase was higher and interatomic potential was smaller than that of L12 equilibrium phase. Therefore, it is concluded that Llo phase was unstable, and phase transformation would occur to L12 which was more stable.

文摘Organic ferroelastics with metal free features and intrinsically light weight are highly desirable for future applications in flexible,smart and biocompatible devices.However,organoferroelastics with plastic phase transition have rarely been reported yet.Herein,we discovered ferroelasticity in a pair of organic enantiomers,(1S and/or 1R)-2,10-camphorsultam(S-and R-CPS),which undergoes a high-T_(c)plastic phase transition.Both large entropies change of∼45 J mol^(-1)K^(-1)and evidently ductile deformation process confirm the plastic phase feature.Strip-like ferroelastic domain patterns and bidirectional domain movements have been observed via polarized light microscopy and nanoindentation technique,respectively.This work highlights the discovery of organic ferroelastic combining the features of enantiomers and plastic phase transition,which contributes insights into exploration of organic multifunctional materials.

文摘In this paper,three magnetrons with each of them having specifically designed multiple coupling ports,which deliver specific power distribution for developing a magnetron array based on efficient phase locking between them,are proposed to produce high powerμs-level pulses.To demonstrate the effectiveness of the magnetron with one and two coupling ports as a unit for efficient phase locking,we designed experimentally the coupling ports delivering~10%(the power distribution ratio)of the output power of the magnetron for coupling with other magnetron units.The effect of one and two coupling ports on the operating capability,including the power distribution ratio,anode current and frequency,is demonstrated by establishing an equivalent experimental model which can characterize an ideal operation of the array.The experimental results show that the power distribution ratio is~9%for the magnetron with one coupling port,and~12.5%(coupling port 1,2)for the magnetron with two coupling ports.This shows good uniformity of the coupling capability of the two coupling ports and provides guidance for optimizing the power distribution ratio of multiport magnetron units,which are critical for efficient phase locking in the proposed array in future and higher power arrays.

文摘Mg-Zn-Mn alloys have the advantages of low cost,excellent mechanical properties,and high corrosion resistance.To clarify the phase equilibria of Mg-Zn-Mn alloy in the Mg-rich corners,the present work experimentally investigated the phase equilibria in the Mg-rich corner at 300-400°C with equilibrated alloy method using electron probe micro analyzer(EPMA),X-ray diffractometer(XRD),transmission electron microscopy(TEM),and differential scanning calorimeter(DSC).Mn atoms were found to dissolve into MgZn_(2) to form a ternary solid-solution type compound,in which Mn content can be up to 15.1at%at 400°C.Three-phase equilibrium ofα-Mg+MgZn_(2)+α-Mn and liquid+α-Mg+MgZn_(2) were confirmed at 400°C.Subsequently,thermodynamic modeling of the Mg-Zn-Mn system was carried out using the CALPHAD method based on the experimental data of this work and literature data.The calculated invariant reaction Liquid+α-Mn→α-Mg+MgZn_(2) at 430°C shows good agreement with the DSC results.In addition,the results of solidification path calculations explain the microstructure in the ascast and annealed alloys well.The agreement between the calculated results and experimental data proves the self-consistency of the thermodynamic database,which can provide guidance for the compositional design of Mg-Zn-Mn alloys.
文摘The precipitation of secondary Laves phases and its effect on notch sensitivity are systematically studied in Thermo-Span alloy. The results show that the precipitation peak temperature of secondary Laves phases is 925 ℃. Below 925 ℃, the volume fraction of secondary Laves phases increases with the rise of the temperature, and its morphology changes from granular to thin-film;above 925 ℃, the volume fraction of secondary Laves phases shows an opposite trend to temperature, and its morphology changes from thin-film to granular. A detailed explanation through linear density (ρ) is provided that the influence of secondary Laves phases at the grain boundaries (GBs) on notch sensitivity depends on the coupling competition effect of their size, quantity, and morphology. Notably, the granular Laves phases are more beneficial to improving the notch sensitivity of the alloy compared with thin-film Laves phases. Granular secondary Laves phases can promote the formation of γ′ phases depletion zone to improve the ability of GBs to accommodate high strain localization, and effectively inhibit the crack initiation and propagation.

文摘A novel approach for fabricating multi-principal element alloys with adjustable phase configurations and mechanical properties was developed using laser-aided additive manufacturing(LAAM),combining FCC-structured(face-centered cubic)CoCrNi and BCC-structured(body-centered cubic)CoCrNiAl0.6TiFe feedstocks.During fabrication,CoCrNi powders and CoCrNiAl0.6TiFe powders were simultaneously fed into the melt pool at individually adjustable rates,allowing for controlled phase transitions.The resulting phase evolution demonstrated a gradual transition from a single FCC structure CoCrNi(A10.6TiFe)x(x=0,0.1,0.2,0.3)to a dual FCCB2 structure CoCrNi(Al0.6TiFe)x(x=0.4,0.5)as the proportion of BCC-structured powders increased.The B2 phase,enriched in Ti and Al due to their larger atomic radii and negative segregation enthalpy,precipitated around the FCC matrix,with volume fractions of 0.5%and 5.7%for CoCrNi(A10.6TiFe)0.4 and CoCrNi(A10.6TiFe)0.5,respectively.This phase transition resulted in significant mechanical enhancements.Yield and ultimate tensile strengths increased from 486.0 and 781.2 MPa(CoCrNi)to 887.2 and 1165.2 MPa(CoCrNi(A10.6TiFe)0.5).Dislocation-mediated hardening prevailed in single-phase FCC alloys,exhibiting a characteristic dislocation density of 2.5×10^(15)m^(-2)for CoCrNi(A10.6TiFe)0.3 alloy.Once the B2 phase precipitated,precipitation strengthening became dominant,as observed in transmission electron microscopy(TEM),where dislocations accumulated around B2 precipitates.This study presents an innovative alloy fabrication strategy that enables precise tuning of FCC-BCC dualphase structures,facilitating the direct fabrication of components with spatially customized properties.These findings provide valuable insights for developing multiprincipal element alloys with heterogeneous microstructures for advanced engineering applications.

文摘The two-dimensional van der Waals layered semiconductor In_(2)Se_(3) has emerged as a promising candidate for non-volatile ferroelectric memory,optoelectronic devices,and polymorphic phase engineering.Polymorphic In_(2)Se_(3) typically stabilizes in three distinct phases:α-,β′-,and β^(*)-In_(2)Se_(3),each dominant within specific temperature ranges.Although the crystal structures and ferroelectric properties of these phases have been widely studied,the unambiguous assignment of their in-plane and out-of-plane ferroelectric behaviors,as well as the mechanisms governing their phase transitions,remains a subject of active debate.In this study,we investigate the evolution of atomic and electronic structures in molecular beam epitaxy-grown ultrathin In_(2)Se_(3) films through correlated microstructural and macroscopic physical property analysis.By employing scanning tunneling microscopy/spectroscopy,temperature-dependent Raman spectroscopy,and piezoresponse force microscopy,we demonstrate a reversible temperature-induced phase transition between the in-plane ferroelectric β^(*)and antiferroelectric β′phases.Furthermore,we confirm robust out-of-plane ferroelectric polarization in the as-grown films and achieve an electric-field-driven transition from the β^(*)to β′phase.Our findings not only advance the fundamental understanding of phase transitions and polarization evolution in two-dimensional semiconductors but also open new avenues for the design of tunable,non-volatile ferroelectric memory devices.

文摘Phase imprinting enables the dynamic generation of superflow in bosonic atoms,effectively overcoming traditional limitations such as vortex number constraints and heating effects.However,the mechanisms underlying superflow formation remain insufficiently understood.In this work,we reveal these mechanisms by studying the time evolution of the transferred total angular momentum and the quantized current throughout the phase imprinting process,achieved through numerically solving the time-dependent Schrodinger and Gross-Pitaevskii equations.We demonstrate that the Bose gas dynamically acquires angular momentum through the density depletion induced by the phase imprinting potential,whereas quantized currents emerge from azimuthal phase slips accompanied by complete density depletions.Regarding the impact of system parameters,such as interactions,we find that interactions hinder superflow formation,as the azimuthal density distribution becomes less susceptible to the phase imprinting potential.Our findings offer microscopic insights into the dynamic development of superflow during the phase imprinting process and provide valuable guidance for ongoing experimental efforts.

文摘To explain the precipitation mechanism ofχphase in Co-based superalloys,the microstructural evolution of Co−Ti−Mo superalloys subjected to aging was investigated by X-ray diffraction(XRD),scanning electron microscope(SEM)and transmission electron microscope(TEM).The results show that the needle-likeχphase is mainly composed ofD0_(19)-Co_(3)(Ti,Mo),which is transformed from L1_(2-γ′)phase,and a specific orientation relationship exists between them.χphase is nucleated through the shearing ofγ′phase due to the influence of stacking fault.The crystal orientation relationship between L1_(2) andD0_(19)can be confirmed as{111}L1_(2)//{0001}_(D0_(19)),and<112>_(L1_(2))//<1100>_(D0_(19)).The growth ofD0_(19-χ)phase depends on the diffusions of Ti and Mo,and consumes a large number of elements.This progress leads to the appearance ofγ′precipitation depletion zone(PDZ)aroundD0_(19-χ)phase.The addition of Ni improves the stability of L1_(2-γ′)phase and the mechanical properties of Co-based superalloys.
