The conductivities increase with the deuterium content, and the value of the a-direction is larger than that of the e-direction. Compared with DKDP crystals, DADP crystals have larger conductivities, which is partly due to the existence of A defects. The ac conductivity over the temperature range 25-170℃has shown a knee in the curve ofln（σT） versus T-1. The conductivity activation energy calculated by the slope of the high temperature region decreases with the deuterium content. The previously reported phase transition is not seen.展开更多

文摘Compared with Cu/Al_(2)O_(3)composites,high-strength Cu/Al_(2)O_(3)composites usually exhibit obviously deteriorated electrical conductivity.A chemical and mechanical alloying-based strategy was adopted to fabricate ultrafine composite powders with lowcontent reinforcement and constructed a combined structure of Cu ultrafine powders covered with in-situ Al_(2)O_(3)nanoparticles.After consolidation at a relatively lower sintering temperature of 550℃,high-volume-fraction ultrafine grains were introduced into the Cu/Al_(2)O_(3)composite,and many in-situ Al_(2)O_(3)nanoparticles with an average size of 11.7±7.5 nm were dispersed homogeneously in the Cu grain.Results show that the composite demonstrates an excellent balance of high tensile strength(654±1 MPa)and high electrical conductivity(84.5±0.1%IACS),which is ascribed to the synergistic strengthening effect of ultrafine grains,dislocations,and in-situ Al_(2)O_(3)nanoparticles.This approach,which utilizes ultrafine composite powder with low-content reinforcement as a precursor and employs low-temperature and high-pressure sintering subsequently,may hold promising potential for large-scale industrial production of high-performance oxide dispersion strengthened alloys.

文摘In thermoelectricity,the inherent coupling between electrical conductivity and Seebeck coefficient represents a fundamental challenge in thermoelectric materials development.Herein,we present a unique pressure-tuning strategy using compressible layered 2H-MoTe2,achieving an effective decoupling between the electrical conductivity and Seebeck coefficient.The applied pressure simultaneously induces two complementary effects:(1)bandgap reduction that moderately enhances carrier concentration to improve the electrical conductivity,and(2)band convergence that dramatically increases density-of-states effective mass to boost the Seebeck coefficient.This dual mechanism yields an extraordinary 18.5-fold enhancement in the average power factor.First-principles calculations and Boltzmann transport modeling precisely reproduce the experimental observations,validating this pressure-induced decoupling mechanism.The pressure-tuning mechanism provides a feasible and effective strategy for breaking through the optimization limits of the power factor,facilitating the design of high-performance thermoelectric materials.

文摘The effects of forward extrusion as well as extrusion combined with reversible torsion(KoBo extrusion),followed by additional deformation via the MaxStrain module of the Gleeble thermomechanical simulator,on the microstructure,mechanical properties,and electrical conductivity of a Cu−0.7Mg(wt.%)alloy,were investigated.The simulation results highlighted the critical influence of processing history on determining the equivalent strain distribution.The sample subjected to forward extrusion at 400℃and subsequent MaxStrain processing(FM sample),possessed 76%lower grain size compared to the sample processed solely with MaxStrain(AM sample).Likewise,the KoBo-extruded and MaxStrain-processed sample(KM sample)exhibited 66%smaller grain size compared to the AM sample.Tensile test results revealed that the AM,FM,and KM samples,respectively,possessed 251%,288%,and 360%higher yield strength,and 95%,121%,and 169%higher tensile strength compared to the initial annealed alloy,as a result of grain refinement as well as deformation strengthening.Finally,the electrical conductivity measurements revealed that AM,FM,and KM samples,respectively,possessed electrical conductivity values of 37.9,35.6,and 32.0 MS/m,which,by considering their mechanical properties,makes them eligible to be categorized as high-strength and high-conductivity copper alloys.

文摘The effects of drawing strain during intermediate annealing on the microstructure and properties of Cu-20 wt%Fe alloy wires while maintaining constant total deformation were investigated.Intermediate annealing effectively removes work hardening in both the Cu matrix and Fe fibers,restoring their plastic deformation capacity and preserving fiber continuity during subsequent redrawing.The process also refines the Fe phase,leading to a more uniform size distribution and straighter,better-aligned Cu/Fe phase interfaces,thereby enhancing the comprehensive properties of the alloy.The magnitude of drawing strain during intermediate annealing plays a critical role in balancing the mechanical strength and electrical conductivity of redrawn wires.A lower initial drawing strain requires greater redrawing strain,leading to excessive hardening of the Fe fibers,which negatively impacts the electrical conductivity and tensile plasticity.Conversely,a higher initial drawing strain can result in insufficient work hardening during the redrawing deformation process,yielding minimal strength improvements.Among the tested alloys,H/3.5 wires show a slight reduction in strength and hardness compared to W and H/4.5 wires but exhibit a significant increase in tensile elongation and electrical conductivity.The tensile strength was 755 MPa,and the electrical conductivity was 47%international-annealed copper standard(IACS).The optimal performance is attributed to the formation of a high-density,ultrafine Fe fiber structure-aligned parallel to the drawing direction,which is achieved through a suitable combination of the drawing process and intermediate annealing.

文摘In this study,Al-xSi-0.3Mn-0.3Mg-0.14Fe alloys(x=6.5,7.5,8.5,wt.%)were prepared by super-slow-speed die-casting,and the effects of Si content on the microstructure,mechanical,and thermal/electrical conductivities in as-cast,T5,and T6 states(DIN EN 1706:2020)were investigated.It is found that the increase of Si content in the alloy enhances the formation of eutectic segregation band in the casting surface microstructure.Within the Si content range of 6.5%-8.5%,as a comprehensive evaluation criterion of mechanical properties,the quality index(QI)of 376.1 MPa can be obtained in the as-cast state of the alloy with about 7.5%Si content,373.4 MPa in T5 state of the alloy with 6.5%Si content,and 432.2 MPa in T6 state of the alloy containing 8.5%Si.The heat treatment state significantly affects the thermal conductivity and electrical conductivity of the alloys.The eutectic silicon in the alloy is segemented and further spheroidizaed during the solution process,and the solute atoms of Mg and Si are more adequately precipitated during the aging process.Both of these greatly reduce the probability of electron scattering.Thus,T6 treatment significantly improves the electrical and thermal conductivities.With the increase of Si content,both thermal conductivity and electrical conductivity decrease slightly,demonstrating a strong correlation with the Si content in the alloy.

文摘Magnesium(Mg)alloys offer significant potential for conductive applications,thanks to their distinctive attributes,including high specific strength,excellent electrical conductivity(EC),low density,electromagnetic interference shielding effectiveness(EMI SE),and recyclability.However,a major challenge in Mg alloy research is balancing high strength with good EC,as strengthening these alloys often compromises their EC.This paper offers an in-depth analysis of the mechanisms,strategies,and applications aimed at improving the EC of Mg alloys.A bibliometric study is performed to uncover the main research trends and emerging hotspots within the field.The review then examines various strategies to improve EC focusing on factors such as solute elements,second phases,grain boundaries,textures,and vacancies.By carefully controlling alloy composition and optimizing heat treatment processes,significant advancements have been achieved by researchers in developing Mg alloys that possess both high strength and high EC,especially in Mg-Al,Mg-Zn,Mg-RE alloy systems and composites.Finally,the paper outlines future research directions,stressing the importance of further exploration into alloying element selection,heat treatment optimization,and other advanced strategies.These efforts are crucial for overcoming current challenges and expanding the application of Mg alloys in EC fields.

文摘Immiscible bimetal systems,of which tungsten–copper(W–Cu)is a typical representative,have crucial applications in fields requiring both mechanical and physical properties.Nevertheless,it is a major challenge to determine how to give full play to the advantages of the two phases of the bimetal and achieve outstanding comprehensive properties.In this study,an ultrafine-grained W–Cu bimetal with spatially connected Cu and specific Wislands was fabricated through a designed powder-mixing process and subsequent rapid low-temperature sintering.The prepared bimetal concurrently has a high yield strength,large plastic strain,and high electrical conductivity.The stress distribution and strain response of individual phases in different types of W–Cu bimetals under loading were quantified by means of a simulation.The high yield strength of the reported bimetal results from the microstructure refinement and high contiguity of the grains in the W islands,which enhance the contribution of W to the total plastic deformation of the bimetal.The high electrical conductivity is attributed to the increased mean free path of the Cu and the reduced proportion of phase boundaries due to the specific phase combination of W islands and Cu.This work provides new insight into modulating phase configuration in immiscible metallic composites to achieve high-level multi-objective properties.

文摘Lightweight aluminum alloy conductor materials(Al-Mg-Si alloys)require not only high electrical conductivity to reduce electrical loss,but also high strength to withstand extreme weather conditions.To improve electrical conductivity and mechanical properties of Al-Mg-Si alloy simultaneously,the rare earth La was introduced to modify the Al-Mg-Si alloy.The effect of La addition on the microstructure,tensile properties and electrical conductivity of cast Al-Mg-Si alloy was investigated systematically.Results indicate that the appropriate La content is helpful to improve the strength and electrical conductivity of Al-Mg-Si alloys.When the addition of La is 0.2wt.%,theα-Al grains are refined apparently,Mg and Si solute atoms in the Al matrix are reduced by the formation of Mg_(2)Si phase;the distribution of Al_(11)La_(3)phases is uniform,and the morphology of AlFeSi phase transforms from continuous state to discontinuous state.The Al-Mg-Si-0.2La alloy exhibits the optimal tensile properties and electrical conductivity,with an ultimate tensile strength of 170 MPa,a yield strength of 88 MPa,an elongation of 18.9%,and an electrical conductivity of 44.0%IACS.These values represent improvements of 9.0%,15.8%,70.3%,and 17.3%,respectively,compared to the Al-Mg-Si alloy without La addition.However,excessive La deteriorates the properties of Al-Mg-Si-xLa alloys.

文摘The deformation of Cu–20 wt.%Fe alloy wires leads to a significant improvement in mechanical properties and a decrease in electrical conductivity.Simultaneous improvements in strength and conductivity were achieved by intermediate annealing of drawn Cu–20 wt.%Fe wires.As the annealing temperature increased,the strength of Cu–20 wt.%Fe alloy wire decreased monotonically,but the electrical conductivity first increased and then decreased,reaching its peak value after annealing at 500℃.The decrease in strength is related to dislocation recovery and static recrystallization of Cu and Fe phases,and the increase in electrical conductivity mainly results from the aging precipitation of solid solution Fe.After annealing at 500℃,there was no obvious recrystallization of Cu phase,and many of the nano-Fe particles precipitated from Cu matrix.An annealing temperature of 600℃ induced the recrystallization of Cu matrix and an increase in Fe solid solubility,resulting in a decrease in strength and electrical conductivity.Subsequently,the wires annealed at 500℃ were drawn to 2 mm.Compared with those of the continuously drawn Cu–20 wt.%Fe alloy wires,the deformation ability,strength,and electrical conductivity of Cu–20 wt.%Fe alloy wires subjected to intermediate annealing treatment are significantly greater.This is mainly related to the sufficient precipitation of Fe in Cu matrix and the strengthening of refined Fe fibers parallel to the drawing direction.

文摘A novel approach of decorating graphene surface with graphene quantum dots(abbreviated as GQDs@Gr)was presented to achieve superior tribological properties in Gr/Cu composites.The prepared GQDs@Gr hybrid reinforcement possessed superior dispersion and had achieved strong interface bonding with Cu matrix.GQDs@Gr/Cu composite showed a good combination of wear resistance and electrical conductivity due to the synergistic effect of GQDs and Gr.Specifically,the coefficient of friction(COF)was reduced to 0.3,the wear rate(WR)was 2.13×10^(-5) mm^(3)·N^(−1)·m^(−1)(only a quarter of pure copper),and maintained the electrical conductivity of 96.5%IACS(international annealed copper standard).As a result,delamination,fracture,and plow furrows on the wear surface of Gr/Cu composite indicate that fatigue and abrasive adhesive wear are the main wear mechanisms.Wear surface lubrication film and strong interface bonding ensure better comprehensive performance of GQDs@Gr/Cu composite.

文摘High-performance Ti_(3)C_(2)T_(x)fibers have garnered significant potential for smart fibers enabled fabrics.Nonetheless,a major challenge hindering their widespread use is the lack of strong interlayer interactions between Ti_(3)C_(2)T_(x)nanosheets within fibers,which restricts their properties.Herein,a versatile strategy is proposed to construct wet-spun Ti_(3)C_(2)T_(x)fibers,in which trace amounts of borate form strong interlayer crosslinking between Ti_(3)C_(2)T_(x)nanosheets to significantly enhance interactions as supported by density functional theory calculations,thereby reducing interlayer spacing,diminishing microscopic voids and promoting orientation of the nanosheets.The resultant Ti_(3)C_(2)T_(x)fibers exhibit exceptional electrical conductivity of 7781 S cm^(-1)and mechanical properties,including tensile strength of 188.72 MPa and Young's modulus of 52.42 GPa.Notably,employing equilibrium molecular dynamics simulations,finite element analysis,and cross-wire geometry method,it is revealed that such crosslinking also effectively lowers interfacial thermal resistance and ultimately elevates thermal conductivity of Ti_(3)C_(2)T_(x)fibers to 13 W m^(-1)K^(-1),marking the first systematic study on thermal conductivity of Ti_(3)C_(2)T_(x)fibers.The simple and efficient interlayer crosslinking enhancement strategy not only enables the construction of thermal conductivity Ti_(3)C_(2)T_(x)fibers with high electrical conductivity for smart textiles,but also offers a scalable approach for assembling other nanomaterials into multifunctional fibers.

文摘This work focuses on the structural,electrical and magnetic properties of Bi_(0.8)Tb_(0.1)Ba_(0.1)Fe_(0.9)Ti_(0.1)O_(3)ceramics,fabricated by solid state reaction procedure.XRD forms of the samples at RT exhibited perovskite phase through the hexagonal structure at room temperature.Dielectric studies of the materials with frequency at different temperatures(25-400℃)exhibit two dielectric anomalies,first at 175℃(ferroelectric-ferroelectric transition)and second at around 320℃(ferroelectric-paraelectric transition).The Curie temperature moved towards the low side temperature with the increase in frequency.The less value of activation energy got for these samples could be attributed to the influence of electronic contribution to the conductivity.A significant change in the magnetic studies was observed for Bi_(0.8)Tb_(0.1)Ba_(0.1)Fe_(0.9)Ti_(0.1)O_(3) ceramic.The impedance analysis confirms the non-Debye type nature of the ceramic and relaxation frequency moved to a higher temperature.The Nyquist plot and conductivity studies showed the NTCR behavior of samples.The highest magnetization field was found at temperature-268.15℃.

文摘Clays have considerable influence on the electrical properties of hydrate-bearing sediments.It is desirable to understand the electrical properties of hydrate-bearing clayey sediments and to build hydrate saturation(S_(h))models for reservoir evaluation and monitoring.The electrical properties of tetrahydrofuran-hydrate-bearing sediments with montmorillonite are characterized by complex conductivity at frequencies from 0.01 Hz to 1 kHz.The effects of clay and Sh on the complex conductivity were analyzed.A decrease and increase in electrical conductance result from the clay-swelling-induced blockage and ion migration in the electrical double layer(EDL),respectively.The quadrature conductivity increases with the clay content up to 10%because of the increased surface site density of counterions in EDL.Both the in-phase conductivity and quadrature conductivity decrease consistently with increasing Sh from 0.50 to 0.90.Three sets of models for Sh evaluation were developed.The model based on the Simandoux equation outperforms Archie’s formula,with a root-mean-square error(E_(RMS))of 1.8%and 3.9%,respectively,highlighting the clay effects on the in-phase conductivity.The fre-quency effect correlations based on in-phase and quadrature conductivities exhibit inferior performance(E_(RMS)=11.6%and 13.2%,re-spectively)due to the challenge of choosing an appropriate pair of frequencies and intrinsic uncertainties from two measurements.The second-order Cole-Cole formula can be used to fit the complex-conductivity spectra.One pair of inverted Cole-Cole parameters,i.e.,characteristic time and chargeability,is employed to predict S_(h) with an E_(RMS) of 5.05%and 9.05%,respectively.

文摘A Cu-10wt%Fe composite was prepared through hot-pressed sintering,and the material was subsequently solution treated.The hot-pressed sintered and solution treated materials were rolled and aged.The precipitation behavior and performance changes were systematically studied by using scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy.In contrast to the hot-pressed sintered specimen,the solution treatment significantly affects the thermal stability and properties of the Cu-10wt%Fe composite.The Cu-10wt%Fe composite was prepared after solid solution,cold rolling and aging at 773 K for 1 h,and it obtained excellent tensile strength of 494 MPa,uniform elongation of 16.3%,electrical conductivity of 51.1%IACS and softening temperature of 838 K.Mechanisms for the distinct difference in thermal stability and properties between hot-pressed sintered and solution treated specimens were analyzed.These findings provide a theoretical basis for designing high-performance Cu-based in-situ composites by post treatment.
