Effects of the laser surface treatment on the mechanical properties of CuZr-based bulk metallic glasses

Surfaces of three types of CuZr-based bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) were modified by laser surface treatment (LST), and the influence of the treatment on structure and mechanical properties of these alloys was investigated. The phase structure of as-cast and laser-treated samples was characterized by XRD and the morphology of the alloys after fracture was examined by SEM. The compressive plasticity of treated Cu47.5Zr47.5Al5 and Cu46.5Zr47.5Al5Co1 BMGs can be improved from 0.5% to 2.0% and from 1.2% to 5.7% respectively compared with the as-cast ones, while (Cu0.55Zr0.40Al0.05)99Er1 BMG shows insignificant change of plasticity. The improvement in plasticity is attributed to induced crystallization of B2 CuZr phase in the treated surface zone of selected metallic glasses.     

Application of wavelet transform in-ray spectra analysis

The frequency distribution of different ingredients in-ray spectra,e.g.,photo-peak,fluctuations of counts and Compton region,is separately analyzed.After wavelet transform of-ray spectra,the wavelet coefficients of a photo-peak increase with transforming scales and these coefficients show direct proportion with intensity of peak at determinate scale.A novel algorithm based on wavelet transform is proposed and studied.The results indicate that most of the photo-peaks in multi-spectra can be determined accurately,the-rays energy and intensity of the peak can also be determined.This method has the prospect of being applied in on-line multi-spectra analysis in such fields as radioprotection and nuclear safety monitoring.     

Optical bistability based on surface plasmon coupled between two noble metal films involving Kerr materials

We successfully investigate an optical bistability phenomenon in a layered structure consisting of Kretschmann configuration involving the Kerr-type nonlinear and the silver film. Pure theoretical approaches are employed to investigate that the surface plasmon could easily be coupled and both the reflection and transmission curves versus the incident intensity forms optical bistability. The transmission curves are greatly influenced by the thickness of the second silver film. These results may be useful for designing novel surface plasmon-based optical devices and will be essential for future classical and quantum information processes.     

THERMODYNAMIC ANALYSIS AND FORMATION ENTHALPY CALCULATION OF OXYGEN VACANCY DEFECT IN DOPED LITHIUM NIOBATE CRYSTALS

Based on the thermodynamic analysis of oxygen vacancy defects in lithium niobate (LiNbO₃ (LN)) and the data of thermogravimetric experiment, the formation enthalpies of congruent and several rare-earth (RE) doped LN crystals have been calculated. It was found that the formation enthalpy of oxygen vacancies can be decreased evidently by doping with valence-changeable RE ions. The experimental results were discussed and a new reduction process for photorefractive LN crystals at a relatively low temperature was proposed, and the reduction-treated crystals showed good effect in practical use.     

Nd2(Fe,Si)17合金的结构与磁性

本文对Nd-Fe-Si三元系富铁区域相的结构和磁性进行了研究。结果表明,Nd-Fe-Si三元系富铁区域(Fe>40at％),除出现NdFe₂Si₂三元金属间化合物外(Si>20at％),同时只出现Nd₂(Fe,Si)₁₇赝二元金属间化合物,其中Si取代9d位的Fe原子,而不能形成类似于Nd₂Fe₁₄B的三元金属间化合物,Si取代Nd₂Fe₁₇中的9d位Fe原子后,使晶胞体积缩小;使饱和磁化强度减小;同时使Fe次晶格的铁磁相互作用增强,导致居里温度增高;还使得Fe次晶格的易面各向异性减弱,造成室温下各向异性场减小。 关键词：

Ge/Au,Ge/Ag双层膜和Ge-Au,Ge-Ag合金膜中非晶Ge的晶化

本文对Ge/An,Ge/Ag,双层膜和Ge-An,Ge-Ag合金膜的退火过程进行了透射电子显微镜观测,对Ge/多晶Au(或Ag)还进行了加热过程的原位观测。观测表明,多晶Au和单晶Au膜的存在使非晶Ge的晶化温度T_c的下降显著不同,可由晶界三叉点等处为非晶Ge的有利形核位置来解释,双层膜的缩聚区中由于局域优先晶化的影响,不仅T_c(=100℃)比非缩聚区中(T_c=150℃)低,而且形成直径为1—2μm的Ge大晶粒,而Ge/多晶Ag和Ge/单晶Ag膜的T_c均约为280℃,合金膜中金属含量较低时(C_Au<17at％,C_Ag<18at％),T_c高于相应的Ge/多晶Au(Ag)膜;金属含量较高时,T_c低于Ge/多晶Au(Ag)膜。这说明过饱和金属原子的存在使得非晶Ge的晶化势垒大大降低。 关键词：

GROWTH CHARACTERISTICS OF DIAMOND FILMS DEPOSITED ON Si AND W SUBSTRATES

Growth characteristics of diamond films synthesized by using a dc arc discharge plasma CVD were studied by means of XRD,SEM and reflection electron diffraction. The results showed that columnar growth of the diamond films was observed, the columns having an average diameter of about 15μm, with sharp and regular base edges. Diamond grains grows on the substrata were initially of uniform polygons. An interfacial transition layer of polycrystalline SiC was observed between the diamond film and Si substrate. Diamond grains grown during the early-stage on W substrate were also uniform, and an interfacial transition layer of polycrystalline WC was observed between the diamond film and the substrate.     

STRUCTURES OF Si AND Ge CLUSTERS UNDER MODIFIED STILLINGER-WEBER POTENTIAL

Structural behaviors of silicon and germanium clusters under the recently proposed modified Stillinger-Weber (SW) potential have been studied by molecular dynamics method along with the con-jugate-gradient optimization. Since the SW potentials have been derived from the properties of bulk materials, it gives relatively large discrepancy when the cluster number is small, e.g. n=3 and 4. When n>4, the ground-state structures under the modified SW potential are close to that from the first-principle calculation. The binding energies are also improved under the modified SW potential. These results may be attributed to the relative enhancement of the two-body term over the three-body term in the modified SW potential, which leads to structures with a preferential coordination number 4. Structural behaviors of germanium clusters are similar to those of silicon.
