ABSTRACTGrain boundary and crystallographic orientation information of an Al-foil with a columnar grain structure is characterized by Electron Backscattered Diffraction (EBSD) technique. The starting microstructure and grain boundary properties are implemented as an input for the three- dimensional grain growth simulation. In the computational model, minimization of the interface energy is the driving force for the grain boundary motion. The computed evolved microstructure is compared with the final experimental microstructure, after annealing at 550 °C. Good agreement is observed between the experimentally obtained microstructure and the simulated microstructure. The constitutive description of the grain boundary properties was based on a 1- parameter characterization of the variation in mobility with misorientation angle.

The elongated grain evolution of alumina ceramics doping with Al2O3-CaO-SiO2(CAS), Nb2O5, and 3Y-TZP was studied under pressureless sintering. From in-situ growth elongated grain cooperating with second phase to toughen the alumina ceramics, microstructure and sintering properties were firstly studied systematically. The effect of additives on the alumina ceramics with columnar grain were analyzed by means of TEM, SEM, XRD, etc. Basing on the analyzed sintering process by the principle of dynamics, the elongated grain growth mechanism was further studied.

ABSTRACTThe effect of deposition parameters on the properties of sputtered Be films has been studied. The parameters have been optimized to obtain stress free films. Nitrogen pulsing has been used to improve the film microstructure by suppressing the columnar grain growth.

ABSTRACTGadolinium-doped ceria (GDC) thin films were grown by pulsed laser ablation on various oxide single crystal substrates including MgO, YSZ, LAO, NGO, and STO with different film-substrate lattice mismatch ratios. The film microstructures were characterized mainly by using electron microscopy. A clear influence of the filmsubstrate lattice mismatch on the film crystallinity has been observed. The GDC films usually exhibit columnar grain growth for a large range of film-substrate lattice mismatch ratios. A cube-on-cube growth of GDC film on MgO has been observed with a surprisingly high lattice mismatch ratio of 28%. The highest film crystallinity is obtained on the LAO substrates under a small compressive strain. This single-crystalline GDC film shows no columnar grain growth but presents a novel directionally-aligned precipitated Gd-rich nanoparticle system, which plays a specific role in relaxing various kinds of strain fields induced during the thin film growth to ensure the film crystallinity.
