Процессы самоорганизации частиц детонационного алмаза на подложке в ходе конденсации углерода из парогазовой фазы

Processes in which the island structure is ordered occur in composite carbon films produced by preliminary population of an amorphous substrate with a detonation-diamond system and subsequent condensation of carbon from the vapor–gas phase. These processes, observed already upon filling of the substrate with diamond-growth centers, are manifested in that there appears a structural periodicity of the islands. It was found that the condensation of carbon on the populated substrate is accompanied by the evolution of the island structure of primary growth centers. This consists in that a hexagonal packing of the islands is formed, with the size of these islands increasing by two orders of magnitude. All these structural features of how a composite diamond-carbon film is formed indicate that self-organization processes occur in the system of diamond islands when carbon atoms are condensed and interact with primary diamond crystals.

Features of the influence of thermal modes of cooling on processes of nonequilibrium crystallization of materials from the liquid state

The quantitative estimation of maximum level of cooling rates in the process of casting microwires in glass insulation is given. The shown possibility of nonequilibrium formation of microwire substance is due to the influence of an amorphous substrate in the form of glass insulation. The amorphous state in the case of thin microwires with cast iron vein Fe‒20 at.% C confirms the implementation of an increased (compared to splat-quenching) level of nonequilibrium formation of microwires in combination with updated rates of cooling and increased degree of supercooling of liquid microwire vein.

Effect of Mixed Rare Earths on the Wetting Behavior and Interfacial Reaction between Sn-0.70Cu-0.05Ni Solder and Amorphous Fe84.3Si0.3B5.4 Alloy

In order to explore the effect of addition of mixed rare earths (MRE) on the wetting behavior and interfacial reaction between Sn-0.70Cu-0.05Ni solder and amorphous Fe84.3Si10.3B5.4 alloy, 0.25 wt.% percentage of the MRE, which are mainly elements La and Ce, were added into the solder. Results show it can refine the microstructure of the solder alloy, and there is limited change of melting temperature with the addition of MRE in the solder. The wettability of the solder on amorphous substrate is improved by adding 0.25 wt.% percentage of the MRE into Sn-0.70Cu-0.05Ni solder. Moreover, research results indicate that, with the increase of wetting temperature, the final equilibrium wetting angles of Sn-0.70Cu-0.05Ni and Sn-0.70Cu-0.05Ni-0.25MRE on amorphous substrate decrease gradually, indicating the better wettability at the higher wetting temperature. In addition, with the increase of temperature, the distribution of intermetallic compound (IMC) FeSn2 formed at the interface between the two solders and amorphous substrate is changed from discontinuous state to continuous state. The thickness of the interfacial IMC layer between solder and amorphous substrates reduced with the addition of MRE, indicating that the presence of 0.25 wt.% percentage of the MRE is effective in suppressing the growth of IMC layer.
