退火态Zr55Al10Ni5Cu30块体非晶合金在轧制过程中的自由体积演化

将Zr₅₅Al₁₀Ni₅Cu₃₀块体非晶合金在715 K等温退火30 min, 引入少量纳米晶, 然后于室温以不同的应变速率进行轧制, 用差示扫描量热仪考察不同应变量样品的热稳定性和自由体积演化. 结果表明:即使轧制到95%的最大应变量, 样品的热稳定性也几乎没有发生改变. 在各种应变速率下, 随着应变量的增加, 自由体积含量持续上升. 但随着应变速率的增加, 相同应变量下自由体积的含量先上升后降低, 该规律与单一非晶态结构合金在塑性变形过程中自由体积的变化情况截然不同.     

冲击加载下Zr51Ti5Ni10Cu25Al9金属玻璃的塑性行为

Pb(Zr0.52Ti0.48)O3陶瓷畴界粘滞运动的介电损耗模拟

对不同频率下(1—10kHz)Pb(Zr_0.52Ti_0.48)O₃多晶陶瓷的介电性能的测量表明：在接近铁电相变温度T_c以下存在一介电损耗峰,该峰具有弛豫特征但不满足Arrhenius关系．这一损耗峰被认为是由于畴界与晶格、缺陷钉扎的互作用引起的．用畴界粘滞运动的动力学方程,考虑陶瓷样品中T_c离散分布的情况,模拟了该介电损耗峰在不同频率下的行为,得到了与实验数据一致的结果．并由拟合参数计算了畴界运动

Dynamic light scattering in solid polymers

The viscosity of an amorphous polymeric solid above its glass transition [T _g (T,P)] increases as the temperature of the solid is decreased or the pressure is increased. Under changes in temperature or pressure, molecular subunits in the polymeric solid undergo configurational changes. Such changes or relaxations have a distribution of relaxation strengths and times. As the solid is cooled or as the hydrostatic pressure on the solid is increased, the relaxation strengths increase and the relaxation times increase. These changes in relaxation or dynamic properties are very dramatic as the empirical T _g is approached. Near T _g the polymeric solid is no longer in volume equilibrium; continued cooling or pressuring at a time rate faster than the average relaxation time will produce a polymeric glass. This glass is a nonequilibrium, amorphous solid. If the glass is held at a fixed temperature and pressure very close to, but below, T _g , the volume of the glass will be observed to relax to its equilibrium value. For temperatures and pressures well below T _g , equilibrium is a much more conjectural concept since the relaxation times become extremely long. It has been proposed^1,2 that there is a characteristic temperature T _g at which an amorphous polymer undergoes a second-order transition to an equilibrium glass with zero configurational entropy (i.e., a noncrystallizable solid).     

Cluster glass magnetism in the phase-separated Nd2/3Ca1/3MnO3 perovskite

A detailed study of the low-temperature magnetic state and the relaxation in the phase-separated colossal magnetoresistance Nd_2/3Ca_1/3MnO₃ perovskite has been carried out. Clear experimental evidence of the cluster-glass magnetic behavior of this compound has been revealed. Well defined maxima in the in-phase linear ac susceptibility χ′(T) were observed, indicative of the magnetic glass transition at T_g∼60 K. Strongly divergent zero-field-cooled and field-cooled static magnetizations and frequency dependent ac susceptibility are evident of the glassy-like magnetic state of the compound at low temperatures. The frequency dependence of the cusp temperature T_max of the χ′(T) susceptibility was found to follow the critical slowing down mechanism. The Cole–Cole analysis of the dynamic susceptibility at low temperature has shown extremely broad distribution of relaxation times, indicating that spins are frozen at “macroscopic” time scale. Slow relaxation in the zero-field-cooled magnetization has been experimentally revealed. The obtained results do not agree with a canonical spin-glass state and indicate a cluster glass magnetic state of the compound below T_g, associated with its antiferromagnetic–ferromagnetic nano-phase segregated state. It was found that the relaxation mechanisms below the cluster glass freezing temperature T_g and above it are strongly different. Magnetic field up to about μ₀H∼0.4 T suppresses the glassy magnetic state of the compound.     

The glassy state of the amorphous V2O5–NiO–TeO2 samples

The glass transition temperature dependence to heating rate and therefore the activation energy (ΔH^?) of the glass transition of (60-x)V₂O₅–xNiO–40TeO₂ oxide glasses with 0≤x≤20 (in mol%) were investigated at heating rates φ (=3 6, 9, 10 and 12 K/min) using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The heating rate dependence of T_g was used to investigate the applicability of different theoretical models describing the glass transition. Using the application of Moynihan and Kissinger et al. models to the present data, different values of (ΔH^?) at each different heating-rate regions were obtained. The fragility parameter (m=ΔH^?/R T_g) was ∼24.98 for x=10 mol%, suggesting that this glass may be considered as a rather strong glass (fragility index m∼>20 is an indication of fragile glass). Also the compositional dependence of T_g and ΔH^? was investigated.     

Photocontrol of magnetization in Al-substituted Fe3O4 thin films

Thin films of (111)-oriented spinel ferrite Al_0.5Fe_2.5O₄ have been prepared by a pulsed-laser deposition (PLD) technique on α-Al₂O₃ (0001) substrates. The films exhibit cluster-glass behaviors with a spin-freezing temperature, T_g, near or above room temperature. The magnetization was found to increase following light irradiation below T_g, which indicates the photoinduced melting of cluster-glass states. An analysis comparing the dynamic behavior of magnetic response to light irradiation between zero-field-cooled (ZFC) states and field-cooled (FC) states at 10 K under various light intensities, I, revealed that the direct photoexcitation of spins occurs when I≤0.78 mW/mm², while the thermal heating effect following the light absorption of the samples also contributes to the enhancement of magnetization when I≥1.22 mW/mm². The magnetization of the films could be controlled by light irradiation even at room temperature. This suggests the possibility of utilizing these films in the development of novel magneto-optical memory devices.     

Phase transition study in α-Fe2WO6 compound by EPR

The temperature dependence of the EPR spectrum for the α-phase of iron tungstate has been investigated in the temperature range of 40–260 K. At temperatures betweenT ₁ ≈ 250 K andT ₂ ≈ 205 K where the antiferromagnetic phase transition occurs, a relatively narrow EPR line arising from the dominant iron(III) species has emerged, gaining intensity with the temperature increase. Its linewidth temperature evolution could be described by Huber equation, with T_N = 200 K, which is consistent with the peak seen in magnetic susceptibility measurements, while the correspondingg-factor shifts to higher fields reflecting the build-up of internal field emerging from increasing shortrange order in the spin system. At temperatures lower than T₂, a very broad and distorted EPR line with temperature dependentg-factor and linewidth has been observed reflecting the corresponding rise of the magnetic susceptibility below the antiferromagnetic phase transition, presumably arising from magnetic clusters embedded in the antiferromagnetic background.     

Crystallization kinetics in new Sb14As29Se52Te5 amorphous glass

Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) under non-isothermal conditions is used to study the crystallization kinetics of Sb₁₄As₂₉Se₅₂Te₅ chalcogenide glass. In addition, two approaches are used to analyze the dependence of glass transition temperature (T_g) on the heating rate (α). One is empirical linear relationship between (T_g) and ln(α). The second approach is the use of straight line vs. 1/T_g for the evaluation of the activation energy for glass transition. The phases at which the alloy crystallizes after the thermal treatment have been identified by using X-ray diffraction. The diffractogram of the transformed material shows the presence of some crystallites of As, Te, AsSb, As₂Se₃, Sb₂Se₃ and AsSe_.5Te_.5 in the residual amorphous matrix.     

Magnetic anisotropy in Co73Mo2Si15B10 and (Co0.89Fe0.11) 72Mo3Si15B10 metallic glasses,induced by stress-annealing

Annealing temperature dependence of the stress-induced magnetic anisotropy in Co₇₃Mo₂Si₁₅B₁₀ (λ_s < 0) and (Co_0.89Fe_0.11) ₇₂Mo₃Si₁₅B₁₀ (λ > 0) metallic glass ribbons has been studied experimentally. The room temperature values of the induced anisotropy constants K depend strongly on the annealing conditions, and reveal a change of sign at annealing temperatures well below T_cryst. It is concluded that transient creep and steady-state creep at the elevated temperature give rise to compressive and tensile stresses, respectively, in the expression for the magnetoelastic coupling energy at room temperature.
