Coarsening (including grain growth and pore growth) and densification behavior of superfine Y-TZP and YSZ powder compacts in the intermediate stage were investigated. It has been found that grain growth in the compacts is basically not affected by the compaction properties, and pore growth is driven by both grain growth and densification. Grain growth alone leads to size-proportional pore growth, and densification results in pore shrinkage. The relation between grain size and density is analyzed to be linear when grain growth and densification are believed to be driven by different stresses under an identical diffusion process. Both theoretical and experimental results show that compaction properties and the heating rate do not alter this linear relation between grain size and density but influence the slope of the linear relation. Larger dihedral angle, higher green density, and narrower particle and pore size distributions are found favorable for the achievement of the grain size-density trajectory with promoted densification and minimized grain growth.

Addition of small amounts of erbium has a profound effect on recrystallization and grain growth in titanium. Erbium, because of its negligible solubility in titanium, precipitates in the titanium matrix as a finely dispersed second phase. The presence of this phase, depending on its average size, distribution, and volume fraction in titanium, strongly inhibits the migration of grain boundaries during recrystallization and grain growth, and thus produces ultimate grains of sub-micrometer dimensions. A systematic investigation has been conducted to study the isothermal grain growth in electrolytically pure titanium and titanium-erbium alloys (Er concentration ranging from 0-0.3 at.%) over the temperature range of 450 to 850°C by electron microscopy.

Rapid solidification processing (RSP) is one method of producing high strength aluminum alloys for elevated temperature applications. Allied-Signal, Inc. has produced an Al-12.4 Fe-1.2 V-2.3 Si (composition in wt pct) alloy which possesses good microstructural stability up to 425°C. This alloy contains a high volume fraction (37 v/o) of fine nearly spherical, α-Al12(Fe, V)3Si dispersoids. The improved elevated temperature strength and stability of this alloy is due to the slower dispersoid coarsening rate of the silicide particles. Additionally, the high v/o of second phase particles should inhibit recrystallization and grain growth, and thus reduce any loss in strength due to long term, high temperature annealing.The focus of this research is to investigate microstructural changes induced by long term, high temperature static annealing heat-treatments. Annealing treatments for up to 1000 hours were carried out on this alloy at 500°C, 550°C and 600°C. Particle coarsening and/or recrystallization and grain growth would be accelerated in these temperature regimes.

Abstract Microstructure and its effect on mechanical behavior of ultrafine interconnects have been studied in this paper using a modeling approach. The microstructure from the processes of solidification, spinodal decomposition, and grain growth in ultrafine interconnects has highlighted its importance. The size, geometry and composition of interconnects as well as the elastic energy can influence microstructure and thus the mechanical behavior. Quantification of microstructure in ultrafine interconnects is a necessary step to establish the linkage between microstructure and reliability.
