Nanocrystalline formation in the amorphous ribbons, Fe 79 B 16 Si 5 and Fe 78 B 13 Si 9, resulting from annealing the ribbons at temperatures below their crystalline temperature is followed by Mossbauer spectroscopy. It is seen that in the B-rich Fe 78 B 16 Si 5 ribbons, the crystallization is a two stage process: amorphous →α-Fe(Si) nanocrystalline formation → (α-Fe, Fe 2 B ) nanocrystalline formation while the crystallization in the B-poor Fe 78 B 13 Si 9 ribbons is a three stage process: amorphous → Fe 3 B nanocrystalline formation → α-Fe(Si) nanocrystalline formation → (α-Fe, Fe 2 B ) nanocrystalline formation. These direct observation confirms the inferred formation of nanocrystallites obtained from magnetization measurements of similar type Fe-Si-B amorphous alloys. Our study also indicated that the α-Fe(Si) nanocrystallites survives at the higher temperatures.

Amorphous materials are of current interest due to their desirable mechanical, electrical and magnetic properties. Furthermore, crystallizing amorphous alloys provides an avenue for discerning sequential and competitive phases thus allowing access to otherwise inaccessible crystalline structures. Previous studies have shown the benefits of using AEM to determine crystal structures and compositions of partially crystallized alloys. The present paper will discuss the AEM characterization of crystallized Cu-Ti and Ni-Ti amorphous films.Cu60Ti40: The amorphous alloy Cu60Ti40, when continuously heated, forms a simple intermediate, macrocrystalline phase which then transforms to the ordered, equilibrium Cu3Ti2 phase. However, contrary to what one would expect from kinetic considerations, isothermal annealing below the isochronal crystallization temperature results in direct nucleation and growth of Cu3Ti2 from the amorphous matrix.

Ion beam mixing has recently been found to be an effective method of producing amorphous alloys in the binary metal systems where the two original constituent metals are of different crystal structure. The mechanism of ion beam mixing are not well understood yet. Several mechanisms have been proposed to account for the observed mixing phenomena. The first mechanism is enhanced diffusion due to defects created by the incoming ions. Second is the cascade mixing mechanism for which the kinematicel collisional models exist in the literature. Third mechanism is thermal spikes. In the present work we have studied the mixing efficiency and ion beam induced amorphisation of Ni-Ti system under high energy ion bombardment and the results are compared with collisional models. We have employed plan and x-sectional veiw TEM and RBS techniques in the present work.

We are studying the crystallization and annealing behavior of high performance polymers, like poly(p-pheny1ene sulfide) PPS, and poly-(etheretherketone), PEEK. Our purpose is to determine whether PPS, which is similar in many ways to PEEK, undergoes reorganization during annealing. In an effort to address the issue of reorganization, we are studying solution grown single crystals of PPS as model materials.Observation of solution grown PPS crystals has been reported. Even from dilute solution, embrionic spherulites and aggregates were formed. We observe that these morphologies result when solutions containing uncrystallized polymer are cooled. To obtain samples of uniform single crystals, we have used two-stage self seeding and solution replacement techniques.
