Annealing was subsequently performed in a vacuum furnace in the temperature range of 600-1000℃ for 2h. The samples were characterized by means of Rutherford backscattering （RBS） with 3MeV carbon ions. The RBS data were fitted with SIMNRA 6.0, and the results show the atomic interdiffusion in Fe/Si systems. The microstructures and crystal structures were characterized by scanning electron microscope and X-ray diffrac- tion. The effects of annealing on atomic interdiffusion, silicide formation, and microstructures in Fe/Si systems were analyzed.展开更多

During the atomic interdiffusion in Ni-Cu system, it was found that the interdiffusion coefficients increased with the increase of molar fraction of Ni atoms in the interdiffusion zones when the couples were annealed with or without the magnetic field. It was noted that all corresponding interdiffusion coefficients under the magnetic field are smaller than those without the magnetic field. The results demonstrate that the magnetic field retards the atomic interdiffusion in Ni-Cu system. This retardation is achieved through reducing the frequency factors but not changing the interdiffusion activation energies.展开更多

Pre-alloyed powders prepared by different processes including UPWA, conventional water atomization （CWA） and elemental metal mechanical mixing （EMMM） were sintered to segments and then compared in mechanical properties, holding force between matrix and diamond, fracture morphology of blank and sintering diamond section containing matrix. The results showed that the pre-alloyed powder prepared by UPWA exhibits the best mechanical properties including the relative density, the hardness and the bending strength of matrix sinteredsegment. Sintered segments fractography of UPWA pre-alloyed powder indicatesmechanical mosaic strength and chemical bonding force between the pre-alloyed powder and the diamond, leading to the great increase in the holding force between matrix and diamond. The mechanical performance andthe service life of diamond tools were greatly improved by UPWA pre-alloyed powders.展开更多

The characteristics of powders prepared by common gas atomization and dual-phase flow atomization under similar conditions were compared. The experimental results show that the dual-phase flow-atomized powders have average particle sizes that are one-half that of the common gas-atomized particles;additionally, they possess a finer microstructure and higher cooling rate under the same atomization gas pressure and the same gas flow. The Weber number in the crash criteria of liquid atomization is adopted to measure the crash ability of the atomization media. The Weber number of the dual-phase flow atomization medium is the sum of that of the gas and the solid particles. Furthermore, the critical equation of the crash model in dual-phase flow atomization is established, and the main regularities associated with this process were analyzed.展开更多

The calculated results indicate that a transition-metal atom sub- stitution for a Ti atom produces magnetic moments, which are due to the spin-polarization of transition-metal 3d electrons. The characteristics of exchange coupling are also calculated, which shows that in Cr-/Mn-/Fe-/Co- doped Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3 system, the antiferromagnetic coupling is favorable. The results can successfully explain the experimental phenomenon that, in Mn-/Fe- doped Nao.sBio.sTiO3 system, the ferromagnetism disappears at low tem- perature and the paramagnetic component becomes stronger with the increase of doping concentration of Mn/Fe/Co ions. Unexpectedly, we find the Na0.5Bi0.5Ti0.67V0.33iO3 sys- tem with ferromagnetic coupling is favorable and produces a magnetic moment of 2.00 P-B, which indicates that low temperature ferromagnetism materials could be made by intro- ducing V atoms in Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3. This may be a new way to produce low temperature multiferroic materials.展开更多

Sieving was used to determine the size distribution of the AgNi15 particles. The morphology, rapidly solidified structure and metastable solution expansion of the AgNi15 particles were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), respectively. The results show that the AgNi15 composite particles are spherical and well-dispersed, and the mass fractions of the particles with diameters <74μm and <55 μm are 99.5% and 98%, respectively. The rapidly solidified structure of the AgNi15 particles consists of spherical nickel-richβ(Ni)-phase particles dispersed throughout a silver-richα(Ag)-phase matrix andα(Ag)-phase nanoparticles dispersed throughout largerβ(Ni)-phase particles. The silver and nickel in the AgNi15 particles form a reciprocally extended metastable solution, and the solid solubility of nickel in the silver matrix at room temperature is in the range of 0.16%?0.36% (mole fraction).展开更多

文摘Mg/MgH_(2) has garnered significant attention primarily due to its abundant availability and high gravimetric density.Nevertheless,its practical implementation hindered by its high thermodynamic stability and sluggish kinetics.Fortunately,the introduction of transition metal single atom(TM SA)catalysts has emerged as an effective method to enhance the hydrogen storage properties of Mg/MgH_(2).Among these catalysts,the synergistic effect of nanoconfinement and TM SAs plays a pivotal role in the hydriding/dehydriding kinetics of Mg/MgH_(2).However,the effects of varying TM SAs interacting with N modified confined materials on H_(2) adsorption and desorption and underlying mechanisms remain enigmatic.Leveraging DFT calculations,we investigated the potential of combining TM SA catalysts with N-modified Carbon nanomaterials(CNT)to enhance the hydrogenation/dehydrogenation of Mg/MgH_(2).TM SA N-CNTs-Mg/MgH_(2) heterojunction systems encompassing ten 3d/4d transition metals were designed and constructed.We systematically investigated the impact of TM SA N-CNTs on the hydrogen absorption and desorption properties of Mg/MgH_(2) by examining parameters such as the electronic localization function(ELF),distorted charge density distributions,adsorption energies,dissociation energies,electronegativity,and the D-band center.Notably,the energy barriers for Mg/MgH_(2) hydrogenation and dehydrogenation were significantly reduced by 0.2-0.7 eV and 1.6-2.2 eV,respectively,through the catalytic promotion of TM SA N-CNTs.Herein,a novel“electronic-ropeway”effect was proposed to elucidate the underlying mechanism responsible for enhancing the hydrogen absorption and desorption kinetics in Mg/MgH_(2).Specifically,the contribution degree of TM SA N-CNTs and system electronegativity emerged as effective descriptors for predicting the reduced hydrogenation/dehydrogenation energy barriers.It is anticipated that elucidating the role of TM SA-N-CNTs will pave the way for developing innovative strategies to enhance the hydrogen absorption and desorption kinetics of Mg/MgH_(2) systems,thereby providing valuable design principles for the construction of novel Mg/MgH_(2) hydrogen storage materials.

文摘The vortex dynamics after the initial ring dark solitons in two-component ultracold Rydberg atomic systems have been investigated.The two parameters characterizing the Rydberg long-range interaction—namely,the Rydberg strength and the blockade radius—along with the initial depth,are identified as the main factors that affect the vortex dynamics.In the absence of Rydberg soft-core potential and spin-orbit coupling,the late vortex dipoles move along x-or y-axis first.However,this work demonstrates that,with certain Rydberg strength and blockade radius,the late vortex dipoles move towards the edge at an oblique angle to the coordinate axes,and it reveals that the Rydberg nonlocal nonlinear interaction shortens the lifetime of late vortices.When the intra-component and inter-component Rydberg strengths are different,the backgrounds of the two components gradually complement each other,and the lifetime of late vortices is significantly shortened.The presented results show that the Rydberg dressing breaks the rule that the initial average depth determines the number and paths of vortices.The motion features of vortex dipoles in the ultracold Rydberg atomic system have been ascertained,and their directions of movement can be predicted to some degree based on the rotation directions and initial positions of the vortices.

文摘We consider a Bose-Einstein condensate loaded inside an optical cavity and exposed to two crossed coherent pump fields with same imbalance parameter γ.We identify different effects between pure standing wave fields(γ=1)and the pump beams combining standing wave and running wave(γ≠1).In particular,for γ=1,the system only hosts a normal phase and a superradiant phase.In contrast,for γ≠1,the system features three distinctive phases:the normal phase(NP),superradiant phase 1(SR_(1)),and superradiant phase 2(SR_(2)).Importantly,the superradiance is subdivided into different types characterized by the photon phase.Furthermore,we determine perturbatively the phase boundary separating the normal phase and the superradiant phases,and find that there exists a competitive relationship of energy minimum on the overlapping region between SR_(1) and SR_(2).Interestingly,the transition between the normal phase to SR_(1) or SR_(2) is identified to be a second-order phase transition,while the transition between SR_(1) and SR_(2) is a first-order transition.When the first-order phase transition occurs,the phase of the photons changes abruptly from 0 to π/2.
文摘Pure metal Fe films with thickness of about 100nm were deposited on Si （100） substrates by DC magnetron sputtering. Annealing was subsequently performed in a vacuum furnace in the temperature range of 600-1000℃ for 2h. The samples were characterized by means of Rutherford backscattering （RBS） with 3MeV carbon ions. The RBS data were fitted with SIMNRA 6.0, and the results show the atomic interdiffusion in Fe/Si systems. The microstructures and crystal structures were characterized by scanning electron microscope and X-ray diffrac- tion. The effects of annealing on atomic interdiffusion, silicide formation, and microstructures in Fe/Si systems were analyzed.

文摘The effect of high magnetic field on the atomic interdiffusion in Ni-Cu system was studied using the Cu/Ni/Cu diffusion couples. During the atomic interdiffusion in Ni-Cu system, it was found that the interdiffusion coefficients increased with the increase of molar fraction of Ni atoms in the interdiffusion zones when the couples were annealed with or without the magnetic field. It was noted that all corresponding interdiffusion coefficients under the magnetic field are smaller than those without the magnetic field. The results demonstrate that the magnetic field retards the atomic interdiffusion in Ni-Cu system. This retardation is achieved through reducing the frequency factors but not changing the interdiffusion activation energies.

文摘Copper, iron and cobalt based pre-alloyed powders for diamond tools were prepared by ultrahigh pressure water atomization（UPWA） process. Pre-alloyed powders prepared by different processes including UPWA, conventional water atomization （CWA） and elemental metal mechanical mixing （EMMM） were sintered to segments and then compared in mechanical properties, holding force between matrix and diamond, fracture morphology of blank and sintering diamond section containing matrix. The results showed that the pre-alloyed powder prepared by UPWA exhibits the best mechanical properties including the relative density, the hardness and the bending strength of matrix sinteredsegment. Sintered segments fractography of UPWA pre-alloyed powder indicatesmechanical mosaic strength and chemical bonding force between the pre-alloyed powder and the diamond, leading to the great increase in the holding force between matrix and diamond. The mechanical performance andthe service life of diamond tools were greatly improved by UPWA pre-alloyed powders.
文摘A self-invented atomization process, in which molten metal is atomized into powder by a high-velocity gas stream carrying solid particles as the atomization medium, was introduced. The characteristics of powders prepared by common gas atomization and dual-phase flow atomization under similar conditions were compared. The experimental results show that the dual-phase flow-atomized powders have average particle sizes that are one-half that of the common gas-atomized particles;additionally, they possess a finer microstructure and higher cooling rate under the same atomization gas pressure and the same gas flow. The Weber number in the crash criteria of liquid atomization is adopted to measure the crash ability of the atomization media. The Weber number of the dual-phase flow atomization medium is the sum of that of the gas and the solid particles. Furthermore, the critical equation of the crash model in dual-phase flow atomization is established, and the main regularities associated with this process were analyzed.
文摘The origins of magnetism in transition-metal doped Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3 system are investigated by ab initio calculations. The calculated results indicate that a transition-metal atom sub- stitution for a Ti atom produces magnetic moments, which are due to the spin-polarization of transition-metal 3d electrons. The characteristics of exchange coupling are also calculated, which shows that in Cr-/Mn-/Fe-/Co- doped Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3 system, the antiferromagnetic coupling is favorable. The results can successfully explain the experimental phenomenon that, in Mn-/Fe- doped Nao.sBio.sTiO3 system, the ferromagnetism disappears at low tem- perature and the paramagnetic component becomes stronger with the increase of doping concentration of Mn/Fe/Co ions. Unexpectedly, we find the Na0.5Bi0.5Ti0.67V0.33iO3 sys- tem with ferromagnetic coupling is favorable and produces a magnetic moment of 2.00 P-B, which indicates that low temperature ferromagnetism materials could be made by intro- ducing V atoms in Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3. This may be a new way to produce low temperature multiferroic materials.

文摘Ultrasonic arc spray atomization (UASA) method was used to prepare high-melting-point, immiscible AgNi15 (mass fraction, %) composite particles. Sieving was used to determine the size distribution of the AgNi15 particles. The morphology, rapidly solidified structure and metastable solution expansion of the AgNi15 particles were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), respectively. The results show that the AgNi15 composite particles are spherical and well-dispersed, and the mass fractions of the particles with diameters <74μm and <55 μm are 99.5% and 98%, respectively. The rapidly solidified structure of the AgNi15 particles consists of spherical nickel-richβ(Ni)-phase particles dispersed throughout a silver-richα(Ag)-phase matrix andα(Ag)-phase nanoparticles dispersed throughout largerβ(Ni)-phase particles. The silver and nickel in the AgNi15 particles form a reciprocally extended metastable solution, and the solid solubility of nickel in the silver matrix at room temperature is in the range of 0.16%?0.36% (mole fraction).
