AbstractThe properties of many advanced alloys are derived from extremely fine-scale microstructures. This poses interesting questions about the measurement of composition on this scale. The phase separation of model Fe-Cr alloys has been been studied with the atom-probe. Statistical techniques have been used to estimate the composition and compare the results with the predictions of linear and non-linear theories of spinodal decomposition and the distributions obtained from Monte-Carlo calculations.

Small angle neutron scattering investigations performed on Fe1−x–Nix alloys with 0.26 ≤ x ≤ 0.45 revealed a thermodynamically driven decomposition below 800 °C. The miscibility gap extends at least from 30 at.% Ni to 45 at.% Ni. The diffusioncontrolled decomposition produces fractal morphologies during the early stages of the process. During annealing the structure of the precipitated phase densifies continuously from mass fractals with small dimensionality (1 ≤ dm ≤ 3) to surface fractals with 2 ≤ ds ≤ 3. The results are compared with recent simulations of aggregation and growth as well as with a new analysis of spinodal decomposition, both predicting fractal morphologies.

Our understanding of the structure and the formation of inorganic minerals in the bivalve shells has been considerably advanced by the use of electron microscope. However, very little is known about the ultrastructure of valves in the larval stage of the oysters. The present study examines the developmental changes which occur between the time of conception to the early stages of Dissoconch in the Crassostrea virginica(Gmelin), focusing on the initial deposition of inorganic crystals by the oysters.The spawning was induced by elevating the temperature of the seawater where the adult oysters were conditioned. The eggs and sperm were collected separately, then immediately mixed for the fertilizations to occur. Fertilized animals were kept in the incubator where various stages of development were stopped and observed. The detailed analysis of the early stages of growth showed that CaCO3 crystals(aragonite), with orthorhombic crystal structure, are deposited as early as gastrula stage(Figuresla-b). The next stage in development, the prodissoconch, revealed that the crystal orientation is in the form of spherulites.

The evolution of dislocation channels in irradiated metals during deformation can be envisaged to occur in three stages: (i) formation of embryonic cluster free regions, (ii) growth of these regions into microscopically observable channels and (iii) termination of their growth due to the accumulation of dislocation damage. The first two stages are particularly intriguing, and we have attempted to follow the early stages of channel formation in polycrystalline molybdenum, irradiated to 5×1019 n. cm−2 (E > 1 Mev) at the reactor ambient temperature (∼ 60°C), using transmission electron microscopy. The irradiated samples were strained, at room temperature, up to the macroscopic yield point.Figure 1 illustrates the early stages of channel formation. The observations suggest that the cluster free regions, such as A, B and C, form in isolated packets, which could subsequently link-up to evolve a channel.
