The morphology of the dark and bright regions observed by transmission electron microscopy for the Zr(64.13)Cu(15.75)Ni(10.12)Al(10) bulk metallic glass strongly depends on the ion beam parameters used for ion milling. This indicates that the ion beam could introduce surface fluctuation to metallic glasses during ion milling.

采用磁控溅射方法在Si(111)基片上沉积Cu-Zr/ZrN薄膜体系作为扩散阻挡层.通过比较Cu-Zr/ZrN薄膜体系和三元非晶(Mo,Ta,W)-Si-N的电阻率,同时比较Cu-Zr/ZrN薄膜体系和Ta,YaN的硬度,说明作为扩散阻挡层的材料的选取,应从整体性能上考虑,而不能仅仅考虑热稳定性等单一指标.

Based on the developed multiple-scattering theory [C.-W. Nan and F. S. Jin, Phys. Rev. B 48, 8578 (1993)], an effective-medium theory (EMT) is proposed to treat coupled electromechanical behavior in composite media. The explicit relations for determining effective behavior of piezoelectric composites are derived. To illustrate the technique, numerical results of piezoelectric ceramic/epoxy composites for various particle shapes are presented over the whole range of concentrations. The EMT estimates are shown to be in good agreement with available experimental results. Porous piezoelectric ceramics are also discussed. The EMT predicts a similar critical behavior for heterogeneous piezoelectric materials to recent experiments.

The effect of interstitial hydrogen on the cohesion of the Al Sigma=11(113) grain boundary (GB) is investigated based on the thermodynamic model of Rice-Wang using the first-principles density function calculation. The results indicate that interstitial H behaves as an embrittler from "strengthening energy" analysis. The reduced GB cohesion due to the presence of H at the GB is attributed to the low affinity between H and Al, and the weakened bonding of Al atomic pairs perpendicular to GB plane.

In a first report [Jin ZH.. Gumbsch P, Ma E, Albe K, Lu K, Hahn H, et al. Scripta Mater 2006;54:1163], interactions between screw dislocation and coherent twin boundary (CTB) were studied via molecular dynamics simulations for three face-centered cubic (fcc) metals, Cu, Ni and Al. To complement those preliminary results, purely stress-driven interactions between 60 degrees non-screw lattice dislocation and CTB are considered in this paper. Depending on the material and the applied strain, slip has been observed to interact with the boundary in different ways. If a 60 degrees dislocation is forced by an external stress into a CTB, it dissociates into different partial dislocations gliding into the twin as well as along the twin boundary. A sessile dislocation lock may be generated at the CTB if the transited slip is incomplete. The details of the interaction are controlled by the material-dependent energy barriers for the formation of Shockley partial dislocations from the site where the lattice dislocation impinges upon the boundary.
