It is of great interest to perform atomic force microscopy (AFM) experiment; which provides a unique technique different from that of normal optical and electron microscopy studies, to observe the interface morphology. In the present paper, we report first that the morphologies obtained by AFM on the film are similar to those of corresponding diamond surface, and they are the remaining traces after the carbon groups moving from the film to growing diamond. The fine particles and a terrace structure with homogeneous average step height are respectively found on the diamond (100) and (111) surface. Diamond growth conditions show that its growth rates and the temperature gradients in the boundary layer of the molten film at HTHP result in the differences of surface morphologies on diamond planes, being rough on (100) plane and even on the (111) plane. The diamond growth on the (100) surface at HPHT could be considered as a process of unification of these diamond fine particles or of carbon atom groups recombination on the growing diamond crystal surface. Successive growth layer steps directly suggest the layer growth mechanism of the diamond (111) plane. The sources of the layer steps might be two-dimensional nuclei and dislocations.展开更多

The results show that the lattice parameter of austenite is more important than the electron concentration and the yield strength of parent phase in governing the γ→ε martensitic transformation in Fe-Mn based alloys. A relation between the Ms and lattice parameter of austenite in Fe-Mn based alloys is suggested. The elements Mn, C, Al, Ge, which increase the lattice parameter of austenite lower the Ms; while the element Si, which decreases the lattice parameter increases the MS. The depressing effect of antiferromagnetic transition on the γ→ε martensitic transformation may be related to the increase of lattice parameter due to the positive magnetostriction during the antiferromagnetic transition.展开更多
