AbstractVarious theories have been developed to describe the diffusion-controlled growth of precipitates with shapes approximating needles or plates. The most comprehensive one is due to Ivantsov, Horvay and Cahn, and Trivedi (HIT theory), where all the factors that may influence the precipitate growth, i.e. diffusion, interface kinetics and capillarity, are accounted for within one equation. However, HIT theory was developed based on assumptions that transformation strain/stress and interfacial free energy are isotropic, which are not true in most of the real systems. An improved growth theory of precipitates of needle and plate shapes was developed in the present study. A new concept, the compression ratio, was introduced to account for influences from the anisotropy of transformation strain/stress and interfacial free energy on the precipitate morphology. Experimental evidence supports such compression effect. Precipitate growth kinetics were quantified using this concept. The improved HIT theory (IHIT theory) was then applied to study the growth of Widmanstatten austenite in ferrite in Fe-C-Mn steels. The calculated results agree well with the experimental observations.

Drying Technology

Damage-free drying becomes increasingly difficult with the scaling of semiconductor devices. In this work, we studied a new sublimation drying technology for 3nm node and beyond. In order to investigate the collapse factor by conventional sublimation drying, we observed the pattern with cryo-SEM and revealed that the collapse occurred when the liquid film on the substrate solidified. Based on this result, we considered that it was important to deposit a solidified film uniformly from the substrate side to suppress collapse. Two key process parameters were evaluated to achieve the uniform formation of the solidified film. One is interfacial free energy and the other is film thickness of solution just before solidification. By optimizing two key parameters, it was successfully demonstrated to suppress pattern collapse of challenging devices. In this paper, we report on a new drying method: sublimation drying by LPD (Liquid-phase deposition).

Adsorption Data

Adsorption of benzene has been studied using four samples of fine sodium chloride. The range of relative pressures employed extended to 0.99. The data were employed to show that a correction to the relative pressure should be applied because of the curvature of the surface. The correction was made in the form of a reduction of the apparent relative pressure by application of the Kelvin equation, since the relative pressure over a convex surface would be less than over a plane surface. The adsorption data at high relative pressures for several samples of salt could then be represented by a common curve. It was further concluded that the thick-layer theory of adsorption due to Frenkel, Halsey, and Hill was applicable to adsorption on salt. Adsorption data for ethanol were then obtained and the reduction of surface free energy of the salt by the saturated vapor was evaluated. This figure was then combined with van Zeggeren's and Benson's value of the solid–liquid interfacial free energy for salt and ethanol to provide a provisional value of the surface free energy of sodium chloride of 227 ergs cm−2.
