The results show that: (1) under Joe's model, the growth mechanism from single carbon species is suitable for the growth of (100) oriented CVD diamond film in low temperature; (2) the deposition rate and surface roughness (Rq) under Joe's model are influenced intensively by temperature (Ta) and not evident bymass fraction W of atom chlorine; (3)the surface roughness increases with the deposition rate, i.e. the film quality becomes worse with elevated temperature, in agreement with Grujicic's prediction; (4) the simulation results cannot make sure the role of single carbon insertion.展开更多

The results show that the second phase precipitated from the interphase boundary formed by the first phase and the disordered matrix at high temperature, and from the interphase boundaries of the first phase at low temperature. L12 phase had obvious selective orientation when precipitated from the interphase boundaries of D022- L12 phase nucleated easily at the interphase boundaries formed by [10] and [01] directions of D022 projection along [001] direction, and grew easily at [10] direction. There was no the selective orientation when L12 phase precipitated from the interphase boundary formed by D022 and the disordered matrix. D022 phase had the selective orientation when precipitated from the interphase boundaries of L12, and grew along the [10] direction.展开更多

The mechanisms of the stick-slip behavior are investigated by considering sliding speeds between 10 m/s and 200 m/s.The analyses of the shear distance between the upmost layer and the downmost layer and displacements of a column of atoms in the slider show that shearing deformation of the slider is the main cause of the stick-slip phenomenon. Our simulations also present that a commensurate fit between the two contact surfaces is unimportant for the stick-slip friction.展开更多
