A comparative study of the structure and crystallization of bulk metallic amorphous rod Pr60Ni30Al10 and melt-spun metallic amorphous ribbon Al87Ni10Pr3

Pr-based bulk metallic amorphous （BMA） rods （Pr60Ni30Al10） and Al-based amorphous ribbons （Al87Ni10Pr3） have been prepared by using copper mould casting and single roller melt-spun techniques, respectively. Thermal parameters deduced from differential scanning calorimeter （DSC） indicate that the glass-forming ability （GFA） of Pr60Ni30Al10 BMA rod is far higher than that of Al87Ni10Pr3 ribbon. A comparative study about the differences in structure between the two kinds of glass-forming alloys, superheated viscosity and crystallization are also made. Compared with the amorphous alloy Al87Ni10Pr3, the BMA alloy Pr60Ni30Al10 shows high thermal stability and large viscosity, small diffusivity at the same superheated temperatures. The results of x-Ray diffraction （XRD） and transmission electron microscope （TEM） show the pronounced difference in structure between the two amorphous alloys. Together with crystallization results, the main structure compositions of the amorphous samples are confirmed. It seems that the higher the GFA, the more topological type clusters in the Pr-Ni-Al amorphous alloys, the GFAs of the present glass-forming alloys are closely related to their structures.     

含氢硅单晶2210cm-1红外吸收峰本质的理论研究——Ⅰ.振子频率的价键力场计算

本文根据Urey-Bradely 力场的思想,用价键力场的方法对文献[1]中提出的含氢硅单晶中2210cm^-1吸收峰对应的缺陷复合体的两个模型:空位+4H,间隙硅烷,进行了振动频率的计算.在对计算结果和力常数调节合理性分析的基础上,得出了空位+4H模型比较合理的结论.此外还介绍了理论计算揭示的从实验上区分两个模型的可靠途径.     

含氢硅单晶2210cm-1IR峰本质的理论研究——Ⅲ.峰型的温度效应和缺陷的对称性破缺

本文研究表明,除了200K附近异常峰宽外,2210cm^-1IR峰峰宽均是由声子散射和剩余峰宽决定。对于200K附近峰宽、峰型的异常变化,提出了该峰对应缺陷中心由低温的T_d对称性向高温的D_2d对称性转变的机制。计算表明,空位+4H模型确实具有两种状态:低于200K的T_d稳态和D_2d亚稳态及高于200K的D_2d稳态和T_d亚稳态。对称性破缺机制所给出的结果不仅在定性上,而且在定量上都能与实验相符,这证明V+4H是2210cm^-1IR峰对应的缺陷中心具有较高的可信度。     

Nanocrystallization behaviour of a ternary amorphous alloy during isothermal annealing： a Monte Carlo simulation

The nanocrystallization behaviour of Zr70Cu20Ni10 metallic glass during isothermal annealing is studied by employing a Monte Carlo simulation incorporating with a modified Ising model and a Q-state Potts model. Based on the simulated microstructure and differential scanning calorimetry curves, we find that the low crystal-amorphous interface energy of Ni plays an important role in the nanocrystallization of primary Zr2Ni. It is found that when T〈T1max （where T1max is the temperature with maximum nucleation rate）, the increase of temperature results in a larger growth rate and a much finer mierostrueture for the primary Zr2Ni, which accords with the microstructure evolution in ＂flash annealing＂. Finally, the Zr2Ni/Zr2Cu interface energy σG contributes to the pinning effect of the primary nano-sized Zr2Ni grains in the later formed normal Zr2Cu grains.
