Short Time

Strong solid state bonds are routinely produced between physical vapor deposited (PVD) silver coatings deposited on sputter cleaned surfaces of two dissimilar metal parts. The low temperature (200°C) and short time (10 min) used in the bonding cycle are advantageous from the standpoint of productivity and dimensional control. These conditions unfortunately produce no microstructural changes at or near the interface that are detectable by optical, SEM, or microprobe examination. Microstructural problems arising at these interfaces could therefore easily go undetected by these techniques. TEM analysis has not been previously applied to this problem because of the difficulty in specimen preparation. The purpose of this paper is to describe our technique for preparing specimens from solid state bonds and to present our initial observations of the microstructural details of such bonds.

Further experiments by transmission electron microscopy on thin sections of stainless steel deformed by small amounts have enabled extended dislocations to be observed directly. The arrangement and motion of whole and partial dislocations have been followed in detail. Many of the dislocations are found to have piled up against grain boundaries. Other observations include the formation of wide stacking faults, the interaction of dislocations with twin boundaries, and the formation of dislocations at thin edges of the foils. An estimate is made of the stacking-fault energy from a consideration of the stresses present, and the properties of the dislocations are found to be in agreement with those expected from a metal of low stacking-fault energy.

A sputtered platinum nano-interlayer can react with lithium in situ to form a highly conductive lithium–platinum alloy, creating a stable lithium/electrolyte interface, which was atomically resolved by cryo-transmission electron microscopy.

Stainless steel-zirconium (SS-Zr) alloys have been developed as waste forms to immobilize and retain fission products generated during the electrometallurgical treatment of spent nuclear fuel. The baseline waste form is a stainless steel-15 wt.% zirconium (SS-15Zr) alloy, which is prepared by melting appropriate amount of Type 316 stainless steel (SS316) and high purity zirconium. As zirconium has very low solubility in iron, the addition of zirconium to SS316 results in the formation of ZrFe2 -type Laves intermetallic phases. The corrosion behavior of stainless steel has been widely studied; however, the corrosion behavior of the Zr-based-intermetallic has not been previously investigated. In this paper, we present a microstructural characterization of the corrosion layer formed on the Zr-intermetallic phase using energy-filtering transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy (EDS).Specimens of SS-15Zr alloy, crushed to 75 to 150 μm sizes, were immersed in 90°C deionized water for a period of two years.
