In this paper, the commercial FEM software package Abaqus is employed to model a novel nanomachining process, in which an atomic force microscope (AFM) is used as a platform and the nano abrasives injected in slurry between the workpiece and the vibrating AFM probe impact the workpiece and result in nanoscale material removal. Diamond particles are used as loose abrasives. The ductile material model is used to describe the behavior of the silicon workpiece. The effects of impact speed, impact angle, and the frictional coefficient between the workpiece and abrasives on material removal mechanism are investigated. It is found that the impact speed, impact angle, and frictional coefficient between the silicon workpiece and nanoabrasives have big influence on material removal volume in this novel nanomachining process.

ABSTRACTAdvanced CMOS substrates composed of ultra-thin strained-Si and SiGe-on-insulator were fabricated, combining both the benefits of high-mobility strained-Si and SOI. Our pioneering method employed wafer bonding of SiGe virtual substrates (with strained-Si layers) to oxidized handle wafers. Layer transfer onto insulating handle wafers can be accomplished using grind-etchback or delamination via implantation. Both methods were found to produce a rough transferred layer, but polishing is unacceptable due to non-uniform material removal across the wafer and the lack of precise control over the final layer thickness. To solve these problems, a strained-Si stop layer was incorporated into the bonding structure. After layer transfer, excess SiGe was removed using a selective etch process, stopping on the strained-Si. Within the context of ultra-thin SSOI and SGOI fabrication, this paper describes recent improvements including metastable stop layers, low temperature wafer bonding, and improved selective SiGe removal.

The scale of influence of the single crystal sapphire crystallographic plane orientation and grinding conditions on the material removal rate, surface finish and the state of sub-surface layer have been studied under Low-Temperature Precision Grinding (LPG). The schemes of forming partial spherical heads for human hip joints endoprostheses are considered and elaborated. The possible versions of forming the spherical heads of endoprosthesis based on the novelties in kinematics and the mode of material removal are discussed.

Nanomachining tests have been conducted on single-crystal Al using atomic force microscope to simulate single-blade machining process of single gain. The influences of nanomachining experimental parameters (lateral feed and velocity) on the properties of engineering surface, material removal and chip formation were studied. Results indicated that the cutting depth of nanomachined surface increased as the lateral feed decreased. Insensitivity of cutting depth to velocity at same normal load was revealed. The different chip behaviors of nanomachined surface were investigated through scanning electron microscope (SEM). Results indicated that different lateral feeds caused different chip behaviors. Three typical chip behaviors were characterized as the lateral feed increased. In addition, the chip behavior and the volume of material removed were observed having no evident linear transformation with the evolution of the velocity by SEM graphics. Furthermore, it was concluded from the chip behaviors in nanomachining process that the material at high loads was removed by plastic deformation with no fracture or crack happened.

Grains of pigeonite, a calcium-poor silicate mineral of the pyroxene group, from the Whin Sill dolerite have been ion-thinned and examined by TEM. The pigeonite is strongly zoned chemically from the composition Wo8En64FS28 in the core to Wo13En34FS53 at the rim. Two phase transformations have occurred during the cooling of this pigeonite:- exsolution of augite, a more calcic pyroxene, and inversion of the pigeonite from the high- temperature C face-centred form to the low-temperature primitive form, with the formation of antiphase boundaries (APB's). Different sequences of these exsolution and inversion reactions, together with different nucleation mechanisms of the augite, have created three distinct microstructures depending on the position in the grain.In the core of the grains small platelets of augite about 0.02μm thick have farmed parallel to the (001) plane (Fig. 1). These are thought to have exsolved by homogeneous nucleation. Subsequently the inversion of the pigeonite has led to the creation of APB's.
