The formation and aggravation of hydrogen damage in Fe-3 wt-% Si alloy during cathodic charging Were studied by means of Lange transmission X-ray topography.Results showed that hydrogen damage did not form in the specimens charged in 0.5 mol/L H_2S0_4 so- lution without poison,and occurred with addition of 250 mg/L As_2O_3 even at very low charge current density.As charging at a certain current density,the size of the damage may enlarge up to a limit yet no more by prolonged time.The damage size increased with increase of charging current density,but not so apparent at high current density. An external tensile stress could promote the formation of hydrogen damage obviously. It seems that for charging in H_2SO_4 solution containing poison,the drop of hydrogen permeation curve against time prolongation is due to the formation of hydrogen damages.

Two-step magnetization in a spin-chain system on the triangular lattice: Wang-Landau simulation

Physical Review B

The Wang-Landau algorithm is used to study the thermodynamic and magnetic properties of triangular spin-chain system based on two-dimensional Ising model in order to understand the magnetic-order dynamics in Ca(3)Co(2)O(6) compound. The calculated results demonstrate that the equilibrium state of the rigid spins produces the two-step magnetization curve at low temperature even when the random-exchange term is considered. This work indicates that the four-step magnetization behavior observed experimentally must be due to the nonequilibrium magnetization.

Ion sputter erosion in metallic glass-A response to "Comment on: Homogeneity of Zr(64.13)Cu(15.75)Ni(10.12)Al(10) bulk metallic glass" by L-Y. Chen, Y-W. Zeng, Q-P. Cao, B-J. Park, Y-M. Chen, K. Hono, U. Vainio, Z-L. Zhang, U. Kaiser, X-D. Wang, and J-Z Jiang J. Mater. Res. 24, 3116 (2009)

Journal of Materials Research

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.

Effect of interstitial hydrogen on cohesive strength of Al grain boundary with Mg segregation

材料科学技术（英文）

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.

First-principles study on the effect of Mn and N on the cohesion of a gamma-iron grain boundary

Physical Review B

By use of the linear-combination-of-atomic-orbital (LCAO) method for a cluster model, we studied the electronic structure of gamma-from Sigma 11 [1 (1) over bar0](11 (3) over bar) grain boundary doping with N and Mn atoms. The effect of the segregation on the cohesion of the grain boundary is investigated based on the Rice-Wang thermodynamic model. It is found that N could not only largely enhance the cohesion of the grain boundary but also eliminate the detrimental effect of Mn. The cosegregation effect of Mn and N on the cohesion of the grain boundary depends on where they segregate. Nitrogen could be reliably used in alloyed steels as an efficient strengthening element.

First-principle study of electronic properties of Ti3Si1-xAlxC2 solid solutions

Journal of Physics and Chemistry of Solids

The layered ternary ceramics Ti3SiC2 and Ti3AlC2 are isostructural and can form Ti3Si1-xAlxC2 solid solutions combining the advanced properties of both compounds [H.B. Zhang, Y.C. Zhou, Y.W.

Wang, Strengthening of Ti3AlC2 by incorporation of Si to form Ti3Al1-xSixC2 solid solutions, Acta. Mater. 54 (2006) 1317-1322]. In the present work, the solid solutions of Ti3Si1-xAlxC2 (x = 0, 0.25, 0.33, 0.5, 0.67, 0.75, 1) are investigated by first-principle calculations based on pseudo-potential plan-wave method within the density functional theory framework. The results show that as Al content increases in the solid solution, all the bonds have weakened to certain extents, which lead to an unstable structure both energetically and geometrically. The calculated results are compared and discussed with the reported data for the Ti3Si1-xAlxC2 solid solutions. (c) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

The role of dipole-dipole interaction in modulating the step-like magnetization of Ca3Co2O6

Journal of Applied Physics

While the magnetic ground state associated with the step-like magnetization in Ca3Co2O6 remains to be an issue under debate, we investigate the effect of dipole dipole (D D) interaction on the magnetic ground state using the Wang-Landau algorithm. It is revealed that the D D interaction is equivalent to an effective short-range interaction term. An inclusion of this term allows a columnar-state platform and a 1/2 platform in addition to the two-step feature in the magnetization in response to magnetic field, suggesting that the role of the D D interaction in modulating the multistep magnetization in Ca3Co2O6 is non-negligible although our model may not reproduce all the experimentally observed effects.

First-principles study on the ductility effect of zirconium and its distinct behavior from boron to restrain hydrogen-induced embrittlement in Ni-Ni3Al alloys

材料科学技术（英文）

By studying a cluster model containing Ni region (phase), Ni3Al region (phase) and Ni/Ni3Al region (interface) with a first-principles method, the occupation behavior and the ductility effect of zirconium in a Ni-Ni3Al system were investigated. It is found that zirconium has a stronger segregation tendency to Ni region than to Ni3Al region. The bond order analyses based on Rice-Wang model and the maximum theoretical shear stress model, however, show that zirconium has different degrees of ductility effect in these three regions, which originates from its different ability to increase the Griffith work of interfacial cleavage 2(gamma int) and to decrease the maximum theoretical shear stress tau(max). In addition, it is revealed in this paper that the distinct behavior of zirconium from boron to restrain hydrogen-induced embrittlement can be attributed to their different influences on the crystalline and electronic structures in Ni-Ni3Al alloys.
