AbstractSingle crystalline specimens of pure Pd have been irradiated at ambient temperature with 590 MeV protons to doses ranging between 10−4 and 10−1 dpa. Tensile deformation experiments revealed that irradiation induces hardening and embrittlement, while scanning (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) observations showed that plastic deformation of specimens irradiated to a dose ≥ 10−2 dpa is strongly localized and yields the creation of slip bands at the macroscopic scale and of defect-free channels at the microscopic level.

Aqueous Environments

ABSTRACTHydrogen can influence the behaviour of materials significantly. The effects of hydrogen are specially pronounced in high fugacities of hydrogen which can occur at the surface of steels in contact with certain aqueous environments. In this investigation the effect of high fugacity hydrogen on the surface of stainless steel was investigated using electrochemical cathodic charging. Microhardness was measured on the cross section. Transmission electron microscopy was used to investigate the dislocation substructure just below the surface. Computer simulation using finite element method was carried out to estimate the extent and severity of the deformation. The significance of the results are discussed in relation to the loss of ductility due to hydrogen.

Hot Hardness

The high-temperature indentation fracture and microstructures of dysprosium niobate (DyNbO4) were investigated by optical, scanning, and transmission electron microscopy (OM, SEM, and TEM). Polycrystalline samples were sintered at 1350 °C for 3 h and cut into 3 mm disks for TEM. The disks were indented in a Nikon QM (Tokyo, Japan) hot hardness indenter at room temperature up to 1000 °C. Many lamellar twins having different widths were observed by TEM as well as intergranular microcracks. The room temperature hardness was relatively low at 5.64 GPa and decreased with elevated temperatures. Crack lengths were short, showing a typical micro-cracking effect. In the sample indented at 1000 °C, dislocations in periodic arrays were evident, and their density increased markedly due to heavy plastic deformation.

ABSTRACTWe present a study of the deformation mechanism of decagonal Al73Ni10Co17 quasicrystals by means of transmission electron microscopy. We performed compression tests on single-quasicrystalline samples in three different orientations: with the compression axis parallel to, inclined by 45 ° and perpendicular to the tenfold axis of the decagonal quasicrystal. The deformed samples reveal characteristic orientation-dependent dislocation structures leading us to the conclusion that fundamentally different deformation mechanisms are involved in plastic deformation in the three deformation geometries. We explicitly identified the Burgers vectors of the dislocations as interatomic vectors in the structure of decagonal Al-Ni-Co.
