AbstractBoron segregation and its effect on carbon diffusion is studied in single-crystal Si1-yCy. We find that boron segregates from silicon to Si0.996C0.004 at a level m=[B]SiC/[B]Si = 1.7 during a 2 hour, 850°Cannealin N2. After this anneal, if most of the carbon is then removed from the Si1-yCy layer (via an oxidation-enhanced out-diffusion process), most of the boron segregation is removed as well. This argues against immobile B-C defects as the predominant mechanism driving the segregation. Boron is shown to increase carbon diffusion during the N2 anneal, but also appears to enhance carbon precipitation during a subsequent oxidation.

A new preparation is reported which, for the first time, results in a thin, crystalline SiO2 film on a Mo(112) single crystal. The procedure consists of repeated cycles of silicon deposition and subsequent oxidation, followed by a final annealing procedure. AES and XPS have been used to control film stoichiometry. LEED pictures of high contrast show a hexagonal, crystalline SiO2 overlayer with a commensurate relationship to the Mo(112) substrate. The wetting of the substrate by the film has been investigated by LEED, XPS and TDS, revealing that the film covers the substrate completely.

ABSTRACTEnhanced diffusion of carbon Is observed to be produced during anneal ing of silicon at 900°C under conditions of surface oxidation and phosphorus in-diffusion. Silicon containing high concentrations of carbon (∼9 × 1017/cm3 substitutional) and varying levels of interstitial oxygen and differing defect concentrations has been studied. Diffusion coefficient enhancement over the value found for an anneal in an inert ambient is by a factor of three during oxidation and a factor of forty with phosphorus in-diffusion. Carbon accumulation takes place in a region 0.3–0.5 microns from the sample surface only under conditions of phosphorus in-diffusion and is attributed to carbon precipitation. A model that assumes Interactions between silicon self-interstitials and the carbon can explain both the enhanced diffusion and the carbon accumulation.

A Re-rich phase (up to 85.40% wt.Re) was occasionally found in a single crystal superalloy during thermal exposure. Interestingly, this phase is located in front of the dendrite periphery in the interdendritic region, while the Re is segregated in the dendrite core. Formation of this phase was suggested to relate to the unusual accumulation of the Re resulting from the uneven diffusion process of Re. Appearance of this phase may imply the preference of forming Re-Re atomic bond in the superalloys.

A few snapshots of a dynamic solvent diffusion process through a seemingly non-porous crystal of a dinuclear, cyclic Ag(i) complex were revealed. These indicate the complexity of the process, which involves not only relocation of the molecules in the crystal lattice, but also conformational adjustments of the metallocycles in response to solvent uptake/release.

AbstractThe hot corrosion behavior of nickel-based single-crystal superalloy after drilling is investigated at 900 °C. The characteristics of hot corrosion after drilling which are different from normal hot corrosion are reflected in the formation of a more stable oxide layer and less severe spallation. The change of microstructure around the hole is the main reason for the formation of a stable oxide layer during hot corrosion by changing the diffusion process of alloying elements. Subsequently, the formation of a stable oxide layer can reduce the effect of spalling by optimizing surface stress.
