液态五元Zr57Cu20Al10Ni8Ti5合金的微观结构演变与非晶形成机制

利用电磁悬浮无容器处理技术实现了液态五元Zr₅₇Cu₂₀Al₁₀Ni₈Ti₅合金的深过冷与快速凝固,同时通过分子动力学模拟计算揭示了非晶形成的微观机制.实验发现,凝固组织具有明显的核-壳结构特征,核区为非晶相,壳区主要由ZrCu, Zr₂Cu和Zr₈Cu₅晶体相组成.非晶体积分数随合金过冷度的升高逐渐增大,当达到实验最大过冷度300 K (0.26T_L)时,非晶体积分数增至81.3%.由此导出完全非晶凝固所需临界过冷度为334 K. TEM分析显示,过冷度增大并接近临界过冷度时,合金凝固组织中晶体相主要为Zr₈Cu₅相,而ZrCu和Zr₂Cu相的生长被抑制.在达到临界过冷度后,过冷液相的凝固路径由Zr₈Cu₅结晶生长转变为非晶凝固.此外,合金的晶体壳中存在少量的晶间非晶相,而非晶核中...     

Zr60Al15Ni25大块非晶合金晶化动力学研究

通过等温示差扫描量热法研究了Zr₆₀Al₁₅Ni₂₅大块非 晶合金的晶化动力学.实验结果表明，晶化过程的孕育期很短，即使在743 K这样低的温度下也不过0.52 min，而放热峰宽（反应整个晶化过程进行的时间）却随退火温度的降低明显增大，这说明了结晶过程是一个晶核长大控制的过程.Avrami指数表明在不同的退火温度，该合金的晶化机制发生了变化.晶化机制的变化是由于合金原子在不同温度下的扩散能力相差很大所致. 关键词： 晶化动力学 60Al₁₅Ni₂₅大块非晶合金')" href="#">Zr₆₀Al₁₅Ni₂₅大块非晶合金 示差扫 描量热法（DSC）

退火诱导亚稳态Fe80Cu20合金固溶体的结构相变

利用扩展x射线吸收精细结构和x射线衍射研究了机械合金化制备的体心立方(bcc)的亚稳态Fe₈₀Cu₂₀合金固溶体的结构随退火温度的变化特点.结果表明，在300—873 K温度范围内，随着退火温度的升高，bcc结构物相的晶格常数近于线性降低，这主要是由于Cu原子从bcc结构Fe₈₀Cu₂₀合金固溶体中逐渐偏析出来，生成面心立方(fcc)结构的Cu物相所致.经603K退火后，Cu原子的平均键长R_Cu—Cu增加了0.003 nm左右，大约有50%的Cu原子从bcc结构的Fe₈₀Cu₂₀合金固溶体中偏析出来.在773 K退火后，bcc结构Fe_８０Cu₂₀合金固溶体近于完全相分离，生成了bcc结构的α-Fe与fcc结构的Cu物相. 关键词： 扩展x射线吸收精细结构 x射线衍射 ８０Cu₂₀合金')" href="#">Fe_８０Cu₂₀合金 机械合金化

Proton magnetic relaxation studies of molecular diffusion in the liquid crystal 40.5

Nuclear magnetic relaxation spectroscopy is used to study the molecular dynamics in a liquid crystal butoxy benzylidene pentylaniline (40.5) in the frequency range 4 to 30 MHz and the results are compared with two other members of the same homologous series (viz 40.8 and 40.6). Spin lattice relaxation time studies indicate that molecular self diffusion (SD) and reorientation processes (R) dominate the relaxation process and their relative contributions are quantified. This contrasts with the case where order director fluctuations (ODF) effectively mediate relaxation process and all the three processes are found to be important in 40.6 in a similar frequency range.T _1D in 40.5 in the nematic phase shows temperature dependence indicating that ODF that is present at low frequencies might be diffusion assisted. These relaxation data are analysed in theS _B phase of this compound also to obtain contributions to the relaxation process. These results are also analysed to obtain different parameters associated with the above dynamical processes.     

Magnetic excitations in the two dimensional planar antiferromagnets K2FeF4 and Rb2FeF4

The magnetic excitation spectrum of K₂FeF₄ and Rb₂FeF₄, two K₂NiF₄-structure planar antiferromagnets with rather large anisotropy and spins perpendicular to the c-axis, has been measured by Raman and FIR-spectroscopy. One of the two predicted one-magnon transitions and the two-magnon mode have been observed in K₂FeF₄ (Rb₂FeF₄) at 48.5 cm^-1 (37.6 cm^-1) and 182.0 cm^-1 (160.5 cm^-1) respectively. The magnetic field and temperature dependence of the spectra are reported too. The data are discussed on the basis of an easy plane spin model Hamiltonian. In K₂FeF₄: Mn²⁺ a low lying magnetic impurity mode is observed at 40.5 cm^-1.     

Magnetic and crystallographic study of Tb0.75Y0.25Co3B2

Tb_0.75Y_0.25Co₃B₂ was studied as a function of temperature by neutron powder diffraction, ac susceptibility and SQUID magnetization measurements. The solid solution, which is of hexagonal symmetry and is paramagnetic at 300 K, undergoes a magnetic Co–Co ordering transition at ∼150 K, and a second magnetic Tb–Tb ordering transition at ∼17 K. The latter induces a spin-reorientation transition, in which the magnetic axis rotates from the c-axis toward the basal plane. The component of the magnetic axis, which is perpendicular to c, leads to a crystal symmetry reduction from hexagonal to monoclinic. The observed magnitude of the magnetic moment of the Tb ion is 1.5 μ_B, unusually small relative to the free ion and parent compound (TbCo₃B₂) values. These magnetic and crystal properties are discussed and compared with what was previously published for the parent compound.     

Magnetic properties of the novel nanocomposite (Zn0.15Ni0.85Fe2O4)0.15/(SiO2)0.85 at room temperature

The value of the effective magnetic anisotropy constant of the ferrimagnetic nanoparticles Zn_0.15Ni_0.85Fe₂O₄ embedded in a SiO₂ silica matrix, determined through ferromagnetic resonance (FMR), is much higher than the magnetocrystalline anisotropy constant. The higher value of the anisotropy constant is due to the existence of surface anisotropy. However, even if the magnetic anisotropy is high, the ferrimagnetic nanoparticles with a 15% concentration, which are isolated in a SiO₂ matrix, display a superparamagnetic (SPM) behavior at room temperature and at a frequency of the magnetization field equal to 50 Hz. The FMR spectrum of the novel nanocomposite (Zn_0.15Ni_0.85Fe₂O₄)_0.15/(SiO₂)_0.85, recorded at room temperature and a frequency of 9.060 GHz, is observed at a resonance field (B_0r) of 0.2285 T, which is substantially lower than the field corresponding to free electron resonance (ESR) (0.3236 T). Apart from the line corresponding to the resonance of the nanoparticle system, the spectrum also contains an additional weaker line, identified for a resonance field of ∼0.12 T, which is appreciably lower than B_0r. This line was attributed to magnetic ions complex that is in a disordered structure in the layer that has an average thickness of 1.4 nm, this layer being situated on the surface of the Zn_0.15Ni_0.85Fe₂O₄ nanoparticles that have a mean magnetic diameter of 8.9 nm.     

Phase transition in Cd2Ta2O7 and the Cd2Nb2−xTaxO7 series

A phase transition has been discovered in Cd₂Ta₂O₇ near 200 K which is about the same temperature at which Cd₂Nb₂O₇ is known to become ferroelectric. However, Cd₂Ta₂O₇ does not become ferroelectric below this transition. The nature of this transition was also studied in the Cd₂Nb_2?xTa_xO₇ series using low temperature X-ray, SHG, and DSC techniques.     

Phase separation with charge self-organization in the Tb0.95Bi0.05MnO3, Gd0.75Ce0.25Mn2O5, and Eu0.8Ce0.2Mn2O5 manganite multiferroics

New doped manganite multiferroics Tb_0.95Bi_0.05MnO₃, Gd_0.75Ce_0.25Mn₂O₅, and Eu_0.8Ce_0.2Mn₂O₅, which are semiconductors, have been grown and studied. The starting dielectric multiferroics TbMnO₃ and RMn₂O₅ (R = Gd and Eu) have close magnetic and ferroelectric ordering temperatures of 30–40 K. The crystals studied are multiferroics in which states with giant permittivity and ferromagnetism coexist at room temperature. An analysis of the dielectric properties suggests that, at temperatures T ≥ 180 K, these crystals undergo a phase separation involving dynamic periodic alternation of quasi-2D layers of mixed-valence manganese ions, a process accounting for the onset of charge-induced ferroelectricity. At low temperatures (T < 100 K), a small phase volume in the crystals is occupied by as-grown quasi-2D layers containing dopants and carriers. Most of the crystal volume is occupied by the carrier-free dielectric phase. Thermally activated hopping conduction involving carrier self-organization in the crystal matrix with ferroelectric frustrations drives a phase transition to the state of charge-induced ferroelectricity at T ∼ 180 K.

Optical amplification properties of Dy3+-doped Gd2SiO4, Lu2SiO5 and YAl3(BO3)4 single crystals

Comparative investigation of the optical amplification properties of dysprosium doped Gd₂SiO₅, Lu₂SiO₅ and YAl₃(BO₃)₄ single crystals was performed in a pump-and-probe experiment. High power laser pulses at 475 nm were used as the pump source in order to strongly populate the ⁴F_9/2 level of the Dy³⁺ ions due to ground state absorption. Low signal beam cw radiation at 574 nm was used as the probe beam to stimulate the emission associated with the ⁴F_9/2→⁶H_13/2 electronic transition of the Dy³⁺ ions. The process was modelled as a three levels system, and their populations were analysed and simulated in order to study the gain dynamics. Positive optical gain was observed and compared in these crystals. These results confirmed that among the systems studied the Dy³⁺-doped YAl₃(BO₃)₄ single crystal can be considered as a good candidate to develop an optical amplifier employing the ⁴F_9/2→⁶H_13/2 transition at around 574 nm which is the first step to consider as laser active media.     

Electrical and magnetic behavior of La0.7Ca0.3MnO3/La0.7Sr0.2Ca0.1MnO3 composites

The electrical transport properties and the magnetoresistance of La_0.7Ca_0.3MnO₃/La_0.7Sr_0.2Ca_0.1MnO₃ composites are investigated as a function of sintering temperature. On the basis of an analysis by X-ray powder diffraction and scanning electron microscopy we suggest that raising the sintering temperature enhanced the interfacial reaction and creates interfacial phases at the boundaries of the La_0.7Ca_0.3MnO₃ and La_0.7Sr_0.2Ca_0.1MnO₃. Results also show that in 3 kOe, and at the Curie temperature, the magnetoresistance value of 14% was observed for the composite sintered at 1300 °C. Based on the phenomenological equation for conductivity under a percolation approach, which depends on the phase segregation of ferromagnetic metallic clusters and paramagnetic insulating regions, we fitted the experimental resistivity—temperature data from 50-300 K and find that the activation barrier decreases as temperature is increased.     

Crystal and magnetic structure of the Sm0.55Sr0.45MnO3 and (Nd0.545Tb0.455)0.55Sr0.45MnO3 manganites

Neutron diffraction data are presented for the ¹⁵²Sm_0.55Sr_0.45MnO₃ (SSM) and (Nd_0.545Tb_0.455)_0.55Sr_0.45MnO₃ (NTSM) manganites. The Nd and Tb contents in the latter composition are such that the average radius of the A cation 〈r _A 〉 in these two compounds is the same. The difference in local tolerance factor fluctuations was about 10%. It was found that replacement of a rare-earth cation with leaving 〈r _A 〉 unchanged has practically no effect on the structural and transport properties; indeed, both compounds are metals at low temperatures, have the same crystal structure from liquid-helium to room temperature, and exhibit the same pattern of structural distortions at the onset of magnetic ordering. Magnetic moments of Mn ions in both compositions are ferromagnetically ordered at low temperatures, with T _C =122 and 90 K for the SSM and NTSM, respectively. Below 80 K, the rare-earth cation moments in NTSM undergo additional ordering. In contrast to compositions that are close in Sr concentration (x _Sr=0.4, 0.5), which feature a phase-separated state with a mixture of the ferromagnetic metallic and antiferromagnetic insulator phases, the ground state of both studied compositions with x _Sr=0.45 is uniformly ferromagnetic and metallic. __________ Translated from Fizika Tverdogo Tela, Vol. 46, No. 9, 2004, pp. 1650–1656.

Spin glass ordering of Zn0.75Co0.25Fe0.5Cr1.5O4 cubic spinel

The linear and nonlinear low field AC susceptibilities of Zn_0.75Co_0.25Fe_0.5Cr_1.5O₄ show peaks due to non-critical contributions, which mask the peak due to spin glass ordering. They extend into the region of temperatures in which Mössbauer spectra do not show any magnetic component. When a DC field of 200 Oe suppresses the non-critical contributions, peak due to spin glass ordering is clearly visible. The spin glass ordering is thus shown to be a thermodynamic transition. The critical exponent is found to fall within the range found using other spin glasses. Mössbauer spectra in zero fields provide T_SG, which agrees with the peak temperature of AC susceptibilities in the absence of non-critical contributions. 〈S_Z〉 determined using Mössbauer spectra does not show any anomaly. In the presence of a field of 5 T, the spectra show SG ordering at 4.2 K, which converts into ferrimagnetic ordering at higher temperatures.
