Electronic structure and magnetism in full-Heusler compound Mn2ZnGe

The first-principle calculations within density functional theory are used to investigate the electronic structure and magnetism of the Mn₂ZnGe Heusler alloy with CuHg₂Ti-type structure. The half-metallic ferrimagnets (HMFs) in Mn₂ZnGe are predicted. The energy gap lies in the minority-spin band for the Mn₂ZnGe alloy. The calculated total spin magnetic moment is −2μ_B per unit cell for Mn₂ZnGe alloy, the magnetic moments of Zn and Mn(B) are antiparallel to that of Mn(A), and we also found that the half-metallic properties of Mn₂ZnGe are insensitive to the dependence of lattice within the wide range of 5.69 and 5.80 Å where exhibiting perfect 100% spin polarization at the Fermi energy.

Electrochemical behaviors of the magnesium alloy substrates in various pretreatment solutions

Interface reactions and film features of AZ91D magnesium alloy in pickling, activation and zinc immersion solutions have been investigated. The surface morphologies of the specimens were observed with scanning electron microscope (SEM). Electrochemical behaviors of AZ91D magnesium alloy in the baths of pickling, activation and zinc immersion were analyzed based on the open circuit potential (OCP) - time curves in various solutions. The results show that the corrosive rate in HNO₃ + CrO₃ or HNO₃ + H₃PO₄ pickling solution was more rapid than in KMnO₄ pickling-activation solution. Both α phase and β phase of the substrates were uniformly corroded in HNO₃ + CrO₃ or HNO₃ + H₃PO₄ pickling solution, the coarse surface can augment the mechanical occlusive force between the subsequent coatings and the substrates, so coatings with good adhesion can be obtained. In HF activation solution, the chromic compound formed via HNO₃ + CrO₃ pickling was removed and a compact MgF₂ film was formed on the substrate surface. In K₄P₂O₇ activation solution, the corrosion products formed via HNO₃ + H₃PO₄ pickling were removed, a new thin film of oxides and hydroxides was formed on the substrate surface. In KMnO₄ pickling-activation solution, a film of manganic oxides and phosphates was adhered on the substrate surface. Zinc film was symmetrically produced via K₄P₂O₇ activation or KMnO₄ pickling-activation, so it was good interlayer for Ni or Cu electroplating. Asymmetrical zinc film was produced because the MgF₂ film obtained in the HF activation solution had strong adhesive attraction and it was not suitable for interlayer for electroplating. However, the substrate containing compact MgF₂ film without zinc immersion was fit for direct electroless Ni-P plating.     

Fourfold in-plane magnetic anisotropy in epitaxial Fe(1 1 0)/Cu(0 0 1) and Fe(1 1 0)/Ni(0 0 1) bilayers

Epitaxial Fe(1 1 0) films with thicknesses of 100-800 nm on Cu(0 0 1) and Ni(0 0 1) buffer layers grown on MgO(0 0 1) substrates have been fabricated. These films contain Fe(1 1 0) crystallites which are in the Pitsch orientation relationship. Magnetization and the fourfold in-plane magnetic anisotropy constants of these films have been determined by torque measurements. All the samples under study are characterized by a fourfold magnetic anisotropy with easy axes parallel to the [1 0 0] and [0 1 0] directions of Cu(0 0 1) and Ni(0 0 1) layers. The measured values of the constant for Fe(1 1 0)/Cu(0 0 1) are found to depend on deposition temperature; a maximum value of (2.5±0.1)×10⁵ erg/cm³ is reached after annealing at 600 °С. The in-plane torque measurements on Fe(1 1 0)/Ni(0 0 1) bilayers obtained at 300 °С, on the other hand, exhibit a constant value of (2.7±0.1)×10⁵ erg/cm³. Assuming an exchange interaction between the Fe(1 1 0) crystallites, which are in the Pitsch orientation relationship, the fourfold in-plane magnetic anisotropy has been calculated as 2.8×10⁵ erg/cm³. The deviations of the experimental values from the predicted one may be explained by the formation of a polycrystalline phase within the Fe(1 1 0) layer and a partial disorientation of the epitaxial crystallites.     

Influence of structural defects on the magnetization process in high-magnetic fields in the Fe61Co10Y8Nb1B20 alloy in the form of ribbons and plates

Amorphous samples of the Fe₆₁Co₁₀Y₈Nb₁B₂₀ alloy in the form of a ribbon with thickness of approximately 30 μm and in the form of a plate with thickness of 0.5 mm have been investigated. Plates were obtained by a suction-casting method, and ribbons by a single roller melt-spinning method. Microstructural studies, using X-ray spectroscopy, confirmed that samples in the as-quenched state were fully amorphous. Measurements carried out using a vibrating sample magnetometer allowed values of coercivity and saturation magnetization to be obtained; it also facilitated the estimation of size and nature of structural defects in the investigated samples. All of the investigated samples of this alloy in the as-quenched state have high values of saturation magnetization of greater than 1.25 T.     

微尺度型腔内液态金属流动规律模拟研究

修正了传统的Navier-Stoke方程,并利用修正后的方程与Fluent软件对微尺度型腔内Zn-Al合金微流动规律进行了数值模拟.模拟结果表明：液态金属在微尺度管道内的流动规律在管径为0.5mm时出现临界状态,管径越细,速度附面层相对厚度就越大.同时,微管流动存在着宏观流动中没有的“凸进效应”,且随着入口压力增大,流动前沿自由液面的凸进效应减弱.在流动前沿区域和上游区域之间出现负压力梯度区,且管径越细越明显. 关键词： 微管道 微流动 Zn-Al合金
