纳米结构影响沸腾换热特性的分子动力学模拟

采用分子动力学方法模拟液体在纳米结构表面的快速沸腾过程.主要研究了纳米结构表面粗糙度以及栏栅形和棋盘形两种排列方式对液体快速沸腾过程以及换热特性的影响.研究结果表明,随着纳米结构表面粗糙度的增加,栏栅形和棋盘形纳米结构表面液体沸腾起始时间均提前.当栏栅形和棋盘形纳米结构表面粗糙度相同时,棋盘形纳米结构表面会进一步缩短液体沸腾起始时间.形成这种现象的原因是纳米结构表面粗糙度的增加,增加了固液接触面积,提高了初始时刻热通量,减小了固液界面热阻,导致表面附近液体动能增大,增大了液体高度方向的温度梯度,有利于液体发生沸腾.当纳米结构表面粗糙度相同时,棋盘形纳米结构表面具有较小的界面热阻,从而缩短了沸腾所需要的时间.

Molecular dynamics study of plastic deformation mechanism in Cu/Ag multilayers

The plastic deformation mechanism of Cu/Ag multilayers is investigated by molecular dynamics(MD) simulation in a nanoindentation process. The result shows that due to the interface barrier, the dislocations pile-up at the interface and then the plastic deformation of the Ag matrix occurs due to the nucleation and emission of dislocations from the interface and the dislocation propagation through the interface. In addition, it is found that the incipient plastic deformation of Cu/Ag multilayers is postponed, compared with that of bulk single-crystal Cu. The plastic deformation of Cu/Ag multilayers is affected by the lattice mismatch more than by the difference in stacking fault energy(SFE) between Cu and Ag. The dislocation pile-up at the interface is determined by the obstruction of the mismatch dislocation network and the attraction of the image force. Furthermore, this work provides a basis for further understanding and tailoring metal multilayers with good mechanical properties, which may facilitate the design and development of multilayer materials with low cost production strategies.     

Synthesis and magnetic properties of multilayer Ni/Cu and NiFe/Cu nanowires

Highly ordered composite nanowires with multilayer Ni/Cu and NiFe/Cu have been fabricated by pulsed electrodeposition into nanoporous alumina membrane. The diameter of wires can be easily varied by pore size of alumina, ranging from 30 to 100 nm. The applied potential and the duration of each potential square pulse determine the thickness of the metal layers. The nanowires have been characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), magnetic force microscopy (MFM), and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) measurements. The MFM images indicate that every ferromagnetic layer separated by Cu layer was present as single isolated domain-like magnet. This technique has potential use in the measurement and application of magnetic nanodevices.     

Molecular dynamics study of the mechanical characteristics of Ni/Cu bilayer using nanoindentation

<正>In the present work,a three-dimensional molecular dynamics simulation is carried out to perform the nanoindentation experiment on Ni single crystal.The substrate indenter system is modeled using hybrid interatomic potentials including the many-body potential embedded atom method(EAM),and two-body morse potential.To simulate the indentation process,a spherical indenter(diameter = 80 A,1 A=0.1 nm) is chosen.The results show that the mechanical behaviour of a monolithic Ni is not affected by crystalline orientation.To elucidate the effect of a heterogeneous interface, three bilayer interface systems are constructed,namely Ni(100)/Cu(111),Ni(110)/Cu(111),and Ni(111)/Cu(111).The simulations along these systems clearly describe that mechanical behaviour directly depends on the lattice mismatch. The interface with the smaller mismatch between the specified crystal planes is proved to be harder and vice versa.To describe the relationship between film thickness and interface effect,we choose various values of film thickness ranging from 20 A to 50 A to perform the nanoindentation experiment.It is observed that the interface is significant only for the relatively small thickness of film and the separation between interface and the indenter tip.It is shown that with the increase in film thickness,the mechanical behaviour of the film shifts more toward that of monolithic material.     

The chemical composition of a metal/ceramic interface on an atomic scale: The Cu/MgO {111} interface

The chemical composition profile across a Cu/MgO {111}-type heterophase interface, produced by the internal oxidation of a Cu(Mg) single-phase alloy at 1173 K, is measured via atom-probe field-ion microscopy with a spatial resolution of 0.121 nm; this resolution is equal to the interplanar spacing of the {222} MgO planes. In particular, we demonstrate directly that the bonding across a Cu/MgO {111}-type heterophase interface, along a <111> direction common to both the Cu matrix and an MgO precipitate, has the sequence Cu|O|Mg... and not Cu|Mg|O...; this result is achieved without any deconvolution of the experimental data. Before determining this chemical sequence, it was established, via high-resolution electron microscopy, that the morphology of an MgO precipitate in a Cu matrix is an octahedron faceted on {111} planes with a cube-on-cube relationship between a precipitate and the matrix; that is, {111}_Cu//{222}_MgO and <110>_Cu // <110>_MgO.     

石墨烯/铝基复合材料在纳米压痕过程中位错与石墨烯相互作用机制的模拟研究

石墨烯因其优异的力学性能已成为增强金属基复合材料的理想增强体.然而,目前对石墨烯/金属基复合材料在纳米压痕过程中嵌入石墨烯与位错之间的相互作用仍不清晰.本文采用分子动力学模拟方法,对90°,45°和0°位向的石墨烯/铝基复合材料进行了纳米压痕模拟,研究了压痕加载和卸载过程中石墨烯/铝基复合材料的位错形核及演化,以获取不同位向的石墨烯与位错的相互作用机制,并分析其对塑性区的影响.研究发现,石墨烯可以有效阻碍位错运动,并且石墨烯会沿着位错滑移方向发生弹性变形.在纳米压痕过程中,位错与不同位向石墨烯之间的相互作用差异导致塑性区的变化趋势不同.研究结果表明,在石墨烯/铝基复合材料中,位向不同的石墨烯对位错阻碍强度和方式不同,且石墨烯位向为45°的复合材料的硬度高于其他模型.此外,石墨烯/铝基复合材料的位错线总长度的演化规律与石墨烯位向紧密相关.本文研究可为设计和制备高性能石墨烯/金属基复合材料提供一定的理论指导.     

A simulation study of rapid solidification and crystal configuration of Cu_(70)Ni_(30) alloy

For under- standing the relationship between the configuration and performance, it is very impor- tant both in theory and practice to find out the form and transition feature of microcos- mic configuration by tracking the concreting processes of liquid metals.

Effect of interface structure on deformation behavior of crystalline Cu/amorphous CuZr sandwich structures

The effect of interface types (namely, sharp interface and graded interface) and its thickness on the deformation behavior of crystalline/amorphous/crystalline sandwich structures (CACSSs) under tensile loading are studied using molecular dynamics simulation. Compared with the CACSSs with sharp interface, the CACSSs with gradient interface consistently exhibit good plasticity when the interface thickness is larger than 6 nm, due to the coupling effects among crystalline layer, amorphous layer and crystalline–amorphous interface. With the increase of interface thickness, the plastic deformation mechanism of CACSSs with gradient interface changes from the local plastic deformation in amorphous layer to the homogeneous plastic deformation.     

Influence of Ni on Cu precipitation in Fe Cu Ni ternary alloy by an atomic study

The early aging Cu precipitations in Fe-3%Cu and Fe-3%Cu-4%Ni ternary alloys are investigated by molecular dynamics （MD） simulations. The results show that the average size of Cu clusters in Fe-3%Cu-4%Ni alloy is larger than that in Fe-3%Cu alloy. The diffusion of Cu is accelerated by Ni according to the mean square displacement （MSD）. Furthermore, the whole formation process of Cu-rich clusters is analyzed in detail, and it is found that the presence of Ni promotes small Cu-rich clusters to be combined into big ones. Ni atoms prefer to stay at the combination positions of small clusters energetically due to a large number of the first nearest neighbor Cu-Ni interactions, which is verified by first-principles calculations based on density functional theory （DFT）.
