Commercially useful multiphase alloy Inconel 783 is made up of Ni(28%), Fe(25%), and Co(35%) with smaller amounts of Cr, Al, Nb, Mo, Ti, C, and Si. In this work, relative temperature variations of the lattice constants a(T)/a0 of the gamma (face-centered-cubic) and beta (body-centered-cubic) phases of this alloy are determined from 97 to 773 K using analyses of their x-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns. Plots of a(T)/a0 for the two phases vary from 1.0 at 97 K to 1.012 at 773 K and show that (i) for T = 500 K, thermal expansion of the β phase is larger than that of the = phase; and (ii) an abrupt jump is observed near 300 K. The appearance of new lines above 700 K in XRD representing Co2CrO4 and CoCr2O4 is interpreted in terms of the oxidation of the γ phase, whereas the β phase is oxidation resistant. The anomalous change in a(T)/a0, observed near 300 K and accompanied by a similar change in the temperature variation of the initial magnetic susceptibility, is not well understood. A brief discussion on the implications of these results is presented.

Highly ordered Cu, Ag and Au nanowire arrays with high aspect ratio and highly dense self-supporting nanowire patterns of copper group were successfully prepared using cyclic voltammetry with the assistance of anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) template. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns of the metal nanowries were indexed to the face-centered cubic structure. The field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM) results demonstrated that the length of nanowire could be controlled by changing the electrodepositon conditions. The aspect ratio of nanowire arrays can be tuned.

To study the structural, thermal, electrical, optical, and adhesive properties of magnetic FePdB thin films, 25–200-Å-thick Fe40Pd40B20and Fe60Pd20B20films were deposited on a glass substrate by direct current (DC) magnetron sputtering at room temperature (RT). X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns indicated that the 25–75-Å-thick Fe40Pd40B20and Fe60Pd20B20films were amorphous, whereas the 100–200-Å-thick Fe40Pd40B20and Fe60Pd20B20films were crystalline, with a face-centered cubic (FCC) FePd (111) textured structure. The activation energy of the Fe40Pd40B20and Fe60Pd20B20thin films decreased as thickness was increased. The 25-Å-thick Fe40Pd40B20film exhibited the highest resistivity, whereas the 200-Å-thick Fe60Pd20B20film exhibited the lowest resistivity. Increasing the thickness and crystallization reduced transmission. The Fe40Pd40B20thin films exhibited higher surface energy and stronger adhesion than did Fe60Pd20B20thin films.

Effects of stacking faults in a high nitrogen face-centered-cubic phase (γΝ) formed on plasma source ion nitrided 1Cr18Ni9Ti (18-8 type) austenitic stainless steel on peak shift and peak asymmetry of x-ray diffraction were investigated based on Warren’s theory and Wagner’s method, respectively. The peak shift from peak position of the γΝ phase is ascribed to the deformation faults density α, while the peak asymmetry of the γΝ phase is characterized by deviation of the center of gravity of a peak from the peak maximum (Δ C.G.) due to the twin faults density β. The calculated peak positions of x-ray diffraction patterns are consistent with that measured for plasma source ion nitrided 1Cr18Ni9Ti stainless steel.

Cr–Al–N coatings with a lateral composition gradient were deposited from two segmented Cr/Al targets with different segment size, thus covering the Al content range 0.22 ≲ c ≲ 0.87 and a thickness range from several hundred nanometres to several micrometres. The two-dimensional thickness and composition profiles were determined nondestructively from X-ray fluorescence maps. The results were reproduced by simulations of the flux distribution on the sample surface, combiningTRIDYNsimulations of the reactive sputter process at the target surface andSIMTRAsimulations of the subsequent transport through the gas phase. The phase formation was studied by spatially resolved X-ray diffraction and X-ray absorption spectroscopy at the Cr Kedge. Forc ≲ 0.69, a single-phase solid solution face-centered cubic (f.c.c.) (Cr,Al)N phase was found, and for 0.69 ≲ c ≲ 0.87 coexisting f.c.c. (Cr,Al)N and hexagonal close packed (h.c.p.) (Cr,Al)N phases were observed. The biaxial texture formation in nearly the entire composition range indicates a zone T growth. Four, mainly composition-dependent, texture regions were identified. All observed textures are closely related to textures reported for the h.c.p. AlN and f.c.c. CrN parent phases. Forc ≳ 0.69, a strong thickness dependence of the textures was observed. The measurements reveal an orientation relation between different f.c.c. and h.c.p. textures, indicating that local epitaxy might play a role in the structure formation.

Nanocrystalline CoxCu100−x (4 ⋚ x ⋚ 49 at. %) powders were prepared by the reduction of metal acetates in a polyol. The structure of powders was characterized by x-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), extended x-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) spectroscopy, solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, and vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM). As-synthesized powders were composites consisting of nanoscale crystallites of face-centered cubic (fcc) Cu and metastable face-centered cubic (fcc) Co. Complementary results of XRD, HRTEM, EXAFS, NMR, and VSM confirmed that there was no metastable alloying between Co and Cu. The NMR data also revealed that there was some hexagonal-closed-packed (hcp) Co in the samples. The powders were agglomerated, and consisted of aggregates of nanoscale crystallites of Co and Cu. Upon annealing, the powders with low Co contents showed an increase in both saturation magnetization and coercivity with increasing temperature. The results suggested that during preparation the nucleation of Cu occurred first, and the Cu crystallites served as nuclei for the formation of Co.

Zinc stannate Zn2SnO4 (ZTO) nanoparticles were synthesized via a hydrothermal process utilizing sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) as a weak basic mineralizer. The samples were hydrothermally treated at 150, 200, and 250oC for 48 h. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns show that the highly-crystalline ZTO nanostructure could be formed in a well-dispersed manner for the 250°C sample at a particle size of less than 50 nm. As determined from transmission electron microscopy (TEM) results, ZTO nanoparticles are face-centered cubic single crystals agglomerated together. The Raman spectra results showed that the ZTO nanocrystals have a spinel structure. Furthermore, photocatalytic activity was tested with methylene blue (MB) by UV irradiation. The ZTO synthesized by the 2 M Na2CO3 mineralizer at 250oC demonstrated excellent photocatalytic activity. The ZTO treated three different ways had three distinct UV-Visible absorption curves, which directly influences their corresponding photocatalytic activity.

Cobalt-nickel (Co-Ni) nanowires were formed by electroless deposition in ethylene glycol under external magnetic field. The effects of initial Co (II) and Ni (II) concentration on the surface and morphology of the synthesized nanowires were investigated by x-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM) respectively. An increase in the Co (II) concentration resulted in increase in diameter of the nanowires. However, the length of nanowires was observed to decrease. Higher Co (II) concentration resulted in a mixture of hexagonal close-packed and face-centered cubic Co-Ni nanowires. X-ray diffraction revealed that crystal growth occurred when the nanowires are annealed at 653 K for 10h.

The scope of this work is the determination of single-crystals elastic constants (SEC) from X-ray diffraction lattice strains measurements performed on multi-phase polycrystals submitted to mechanical load through a bending device. An explicit three scales inverse self-consistent model is developed in order to express the SEC of a cubic phase, embedded in a multi-phase polycrystal, as a function of its X-ray Elasticity Constants. Finally, it is applied to a two-phases (α+β) titanium based alloy (Ti-17), in order to estimate Ti-17 β-phase unknown SEC. The purpose of the present work is to account the proper microstructure of the material. In particular, the morphologic texture of Ti-17 a-phase, i.e. the relative disorientation of the needle-shaped grains constituting this phase, is considered owing to the so-called Generalized Self-Consistent model.

Strength And Ductility

Sacking fault energy (SFE) is the key role in solving this problem of getting high strength and expected ductility simultaneously. This work adds Al as the procedure of decreasing SFE in Cu face-centered cubic. It is an economic and effective method to counterpart Cold-rolling at liquid nitrogen temperature to get high density deformation twin and ultrafine-grains size. After undergoing tensile and X-ray diffraction tests, Cu-4.5 wt.% Al plays the best performance on both strength and ductility. Thus there exist the optimal SFE of Cu-Al alloys which get both high strength and expected ductility simultaneously.
