ABSTRACTSquare-shaped micropillar of nearly stoichiometric TiAl single crystals with various loading axis orientations were prepared from TiAl PST crystals by focused ion beam (FIB) technique and deformed in compression using a micro hardness testing machine equipped with a flat diamond tip in order to investigate the values of CRSS for the three types of operative deformation modes, namely ${111}1/2< 1 \bar 10 >$ ordinary slip, ${111}< \bar 101 >$ superlattice slip and ${111}<11\bar 2 >$ twinning. The selective activation of the three types of deformation modes was confirmed to be achieved by compression tests of $[\bar 2 11]-, \bar 110- and [\bar 2 12]$-oriented single crystalline micropillars, respectively. The average CRSS values for ordinary slip, superlattice slip and deformation twinning obtained for micropillars with an initial side length between 3.8 and 7.9μm were estimated to be about 145, 284 and 113 MPa, respectively.

The deformation behavior of the Γ (gamma) phase in the Fe-Zn system has been investigated via room-temperature compression tests of single-crystal micropillar specimens fabricated by the focused ion beam method. Trace analysis of slip lines indicates that {110} slip occurs for the specimens investigated in the present study. Although the slip direction has not been uniquely determined, the slip direction might be <111> in consideration of the crystal structure of the Γ phase (bcc).

c-axis micro-bridges of La 2-x Sr x CuO 4 ( LSCO ) single crystals were fabricated by the focused-ion-beam (FIB) etching method. Small rectangular LSCO pieces were fabricated by cutting and grinding single crystals of underdoped LSCO of x=0.09. The size of LSCO single crystals between electrodes was cut to 20×40μm2 in ab-plane by using the FIB etching method. Superconductor-insulator-superconductor (SIS) like-branch structures on I-V curves of the LSCO stacks were observed for the first time. The branch structures exhibited voltage jumps of several tens mV in the range of from 1.7 K to 5 K with temperature dependence. When the temperature is changed from 5 K to 1.7 K , the critical current and the next branch split into a few of small voltage jumps with the intervals of several mV in the range of from 0.1 mV and 2.0 mV .

ABSTRACTDeformation behavior of an 18R-type long period stacking ordered (LPSO) phase in the Mg-Zn-Y system was studied by micro-pillar compressions of single crystalline specimens prepared by focused ion beam (FIB) technique as a function of loading axis orientation and specimen dimensions. When the loading axis is inclined to the basal plane of the LPSO phase by 42°, basal slip of (0001)<11$\bar 2$0>-type is activated irrespective of the specimen dimensions. When the loading axis is parallel to the basal plane, the formation of thick deformation bands are observed for all specimens tested. Strong size-dependence of yield stress values is observed for both types of micro-pillar specimens with different loading axis orientations.

Fully Lamellar

ABSTRACTA micro-sized testing technique has been applied to investigate the fracture properties of lamellar colonies in a fully lamellar Ti-46Al-5Nb-1W alloy. Micro-sized cantilever specimens with a size ≈ 10 × 10 × 50 μm3 were prepared by focused ion beam machining. Notches with a width of 0.5 μm and a depth of 5 μm were also introduced into the micro-sized specimens by focused ion beam machining. Fracture tests were successfully completed using a mechanical testing machine for micro-sized specimens at room temperature. The fracture toughness (KQ) values obtained were in the range 1.4–7 MPam1/2. Fracture surface observations indicate that these variations are attributable to differences in local lamellar orientations ahead of the notch. These fracture toughness values are also lower than those having been previously reported in conventional samples. This may be due the absence of significant extrinsic toughening mechanisms in these micro-sized specimens. Fracture mechanisms of these alloys are also considered on the micrometer scale. The results obtained in this investigation give important and fundamental information on the development of TiAl based alloys with high fracture toughness.

AbstractA microscale fracture testing technique has been applied to examine the fracture properties of lamellar in TiAl PST crystals. Micro-sized cantilever specimens with a size ˜ 10×20×50 μm3 were prepared from Ti-48Al two-phase single crystals (PST) lamellar by focused ion beam (FIB) machining. Notches with a width of 0.5 μm and a depth of 5 μm were also introduced into the specimens by FIB. Two types of notch directions (interlamellar and translamellar) were selected when introducing the notches. Fracture tests were successfully completed using a mechanical testing machine for micro-sized specimens at room temperature. The fracture toughness (KQ) values of the interlamellar type specimens were obtained in the range 1.5–3.6 MPam1/2, while those of the translamellar specimens were 5.0–8.1 MPam1/2. These fracture toughness values are lower than those having been previously reported in conventional TiAl PST samples. For macro-sized specimens, extrinsic toughening mechanisms, including shear ligament bridging, act in the crack wake, and the crack growth resistance increases rapidly with increasing length of crack wake for lamellar structured TiAl alloys. In contrast, the crack length in microsized specimens is only 2–3 μm. This indicates that extrinsic toughening mechanisms are not activated in micro-sized specimens. This also indicates that intrinsic fracture toughness can be evaluated using microscale fracture toughness testing.

AbstractWe show results of in situ TEM (Transmission electron microscope) quantitative investigations on the compression behaviors of amorphous micropillars fabricated by focused ion beam from Cu47Ti33Zr11Ni6Sn2Si1 metallic glass (MG) ribbon. Pillars with well defined gauge sections and tip diameter ranging from 100 nm to 640 nm are studied. Quantitative compression tests were performed by a recently developed Picoindenter TEM holder, with the evolution of individual shear bands monitored in real time in TEM. It is found that the deformation of the MG pillars at the present size domain is still dominated by discrete shear banding as demonstrated by intermittent events in the load-displacement curves. However, the frequency, amplitude and distribution of these shear banding events are clearly size dependent at submicrometer scale, leading to an apparently transition in deformation mode from highly localized inhomogeneous deformation to less localized and more distributed deformation with decreasing pillars diameter. Deformation of a 105 nm diameter pillar having rounded tips is characterized with fully homogeneous bulge at the initial stage of deformation, indicating prompting effect of multi-axial stress state on transition to fully homogeneous deformation.

To improve the service performance of roller. The surface of roller was alloyed by a 5kW CO2 laser. The effect of CeO2 on microstructure and hardness was studied by means of OM, Micro-hardness Testing Machine and Rockwell hardness tester. The results indicate that addition of CeO2 into coating materials can enhance the fluidity of molten liquid, refine and purify microstructure and increase microhardness and surface hardness of alloying coating.
