AbstractPowders of Al and Ti were blended and compacted, the compact then melted in an attempt to produce single phase Al3Ti. Optical microscopy of the cast and homogenized specimen revealed an almost single phase microstructure with minor amounts of a second phase. The composition of the matrix was measured using fully quantitative energy dispersive X-ray analysis. By use of X-ray diffractometry, the interplanar spacings and the associated integrated peak intensities were experimentally measured for the binary DO22 compound, Al3Ti. Using standard structure factor equations, the intensities were calculated for the various reflections. Good agreement was obtained between calculated and observed intensities.

In this work, we report on the observation of Nd1Ba6Cu3O10,5 (Nd163) phase of the NdBaCuO system in melt-textured Nd123 bulk samples grown from a mixture of Nd123 and Nd210 phase powders. The observation was performed with polarized light optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy–energy dispersive x-ray analyses. Images of the identified phase crystals show an aspect quite different from Nd422 crystals. Unexpectedly, Nd163 was individuated, even in “pure” Nd123 samples. Moreover, after long exposure to air, Nd163 disappeared completely in samples synthesized from powders containing Nd210. Thermogravimetry analyses of powders show that the stability of this phase in air is limited to temperatures higher than 900 °C, so Nd163 is unstable and highly reactive at room temperature. Moreover, an explanation of the observation of Nd163 in Nd210 free samples, based on the spontaneous formation of Nd163 phase in a Nd123 melt, is proposed.

ABSTRACTThe structure and composition of a previously unreported second phase were investigated in both Fe-43A1–0.12B and Fe-48Al-0.12B alloys. Energy dispersive x-ray and electron energy loss spectroscopy showed that the precipitates contained boron and were enriched in iron. This new boride phase had a tetragonal symmetry, with at = 4aB2 and ct = aB2, where aB2 is the matrix lattice parameter. The effect of iron content and heat treatments on the microstructure of those two boron-doped FeAl alloys are discussed.

Setting up of the X-ray Magnetic Circular Dichroism (XMCD) measurement facility with hard X-rays at the Energy-Dispersive EXAFS beamline (BL-08) at the Indus-2 synchrotron source is reported. This includes the design and development of a water-cooled electromagnet having a highest magnetic field of 2 T in a good field volume of 125 mm3 and having a 10 mm hole throughout for passage of the synchrotron beam. This also includes the development of an (X–Z–θ) motion stage for the heavy electromagnet for aligning its axis and the beam hole along the synchrotron beam direction. Along with the above developments, also reported is the first XMCD signal measured on a thick Gd film in the above set-up which shows good agreement with the reported results. This is the first facility to carry out XMCD measurement with hard X-rays in India.

AbstractA procedure has been developed to follow degradation of energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) X-ray lateral resolution in a variable pressure scanning electron microscope. This procedure is based on evaluation of the EDS profile shape change for different experimental conditions. Some parameters affecting the X-ray resolution in high-vacuum mode have been taken into account. Good agreement between the simulated and experimental EDS profiles shows the reliability of the proposed procedure. A significant improvement in measurement of the EDS profile interfacial distance (DINT) has been achieved.

Anisotropic (Fe-24Co-15Ni-7.5Al-3Cu-0.3Ti) permanent magnets were prepared by alloy casting technique. Samples were characterized for structural, microstructural and magnetic properties using x-ray diffractrometer (XRD), Scanning electron microscope (SEM) equiped with energy dispersive x-ray spectrometer and DC magnetometer. There is a relation between metallurgical structure and magnetic properties. The magnetic properties of this type of alloy depend on heat-treatment that is controlling the cooling rate in the presence of magnetic field and double aging. How magnetic properties vary with heat treatment is discussed in this work. XRD studied revealed that the alloy was single phase (bcc) with (110) as the major crystallographic plane. Optical and SEM micrographs showed the presence of (Ti,S)-rich precipitates which are randomly distributed in the matrix. Their composition was analyzed by EDX analysis.

Binary compound Y3Fe29cannot be directly formed by rare earth Y and Fe and the third element M (non-iron transition elements) must be introduced to form ternary compound Y3(Fe,M)29. In this work, six alloys with compositions of the Y3Fe29-xCrx(x=1,2,3,4,5,6) were prepared and investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and differential thermal analysis (DTA). The study on the thermal stability of these compounds points to that the compoundY3(Fe,Cr)29is a high temperature phase and exists above 1100K. The alloys with single-phase of Y3(Fe,Cr)29was decomposed into Y2(Fe,Cr)17and Y(Fe,Cr)12annealed at high temperature 1100K.

Abstract The technological prospects for the creation of a system of microfocus X-ray tubes with the use of silicon field emission of nanocathodes have been discussed. A numerical analysis of the field-emission current from a nanoscale semiconductor cathode regulated by voltage on a grid electrode has been carried out on the basis of which a scheme for controlling the elements of the matrix of field-emission cathode assemblies has been proposed. The current–voltage characteristics of silicon field emission nanocathodes have been measured. They are in good agreement with the theoretical estimates of the field-emission current. A full technological cycle of the development of elements of microfocus X-ray tubes (a set of field-emission cathode assemblies and a set of anode assemblies) has been performed. The results can be used to create systems of microfocus X-ray tubes for nanolithographic equipment of a new generation.

AbstractEnergy dispersive X-ray fluorescence (EDXRF) spectrometry has been applied to the high speed analysis of uranium ore for the purpose of grading and sorting truckloads of ore at the mine. The system is able to analyze uranium ore in less than 60 seconds with uranium levels ranging from < 0.005% to > 5% U3O8. Precision at the 2σ level for 200 ppm ore is better than 10% relative. Good agreement is obtained with wet chemical results in a large variety of rock matrices.
