Magnetostrictive property shows anisotropic characteristics, which are related to phase structure and crystal orientation. In this paper, phase structures and magnetostrictive properties of Fe[Formula: see text]Ga[Formula: see text] at different solidification rates during zone-melting directional solidification were studied. Results show that when the solidification rate exceeds 72 mm/h, the sample has a single A2 structure. A multiphase structure of D03 and A2 is formed when the solidification rate is 36 mm/h. The multiphase structure of L12 and A2 emerges in the sample prepared with a solidification rate of 18 mm/h. The samples with L12 and A2 multiphase structure have excellent low-field magnetostrictive properties, reaching 68 × 10[Formula: see text] under a magnetic field of 20 kA/m.

A series of new alloys including Pt-Ir-M (M=Zr, Mo, Y) were invented in this study. The physical properties, electrical properties parameters and thermodynamics database of the alloys were established. The phase structure and composition were analyzed. The calculation results were verified by experiments. The influence of solidification rate to microstructures, morphology and grain size of Pt-Ir-M alloys were analyzed. According to First Principle, the electronic structures, bonding characters and energetic stability of the alloys were calculated, the calculate result indicated that Pt-Ir-Mo is formed more easily than Pt-Ir-Zr and Pt-Ir-Y, and the formed Pt-Ir-Mo is more stable than Pt-Ir-Zr and Pt-Ir-Y.

AbstractIn order to understand the superconducting gap nature of a $$\hbox {2H-Pd}_{0.08} \hbox {TaSe}_2$$ 2H-Pd 0.08 TaSe 2 single crystal with $$T_{c} = 3.13 \text { K}$$ T c = 3.13 K , in-plane thermal conductivity $$\kappa $$ κ , in-plane London penetration depth $$\lambda _{\text {L}}$$ λ L , and the upper critical fields $$H_{c2}$$ H c 2 have been investigated. At zero magnetic field, it is found that no residual linear term $$\kappa _{0}/T$$ κ 0 / T exists and $$\lambda _{\text {L}}$$ λ L follows a power-law $$T^n$$ T n (T: temperature) with n = 2.66 at $$T \le \frac{1}{3}T_c$$ T ≤ 1 3 T c , supporting nodeless superconductivity. Moreover, the magnetic-field dependence of $$\kappa _{0}$$ κ 0 /T clearly shows a shoulder-like feature at a low field region. The temperature dependent $$H_{c2}$$ H c 2 curves for both in-plane and out-of-plane field directions exhibit clear upward curvatures near $$T_c$$ T c , consistent with the shape predicted by the two-band theory and the anisotropy ratio between the $$H_{c2}$$ H c 2 (T) curves exhibits strong temperature-dependence. All these results coherently suggest that $$\hbox {2H-Pd}_{0.08} \hbox {TaSe}_2$$ 2H-Pd 0.08 TaSe 2 is a nodeless, multiband superconductor.

AbstractWe present a study of the ground state and stability of the fractional plateau phase (FPP) with M/Msat = 1/8 in the metallic Shastry–Sutherland system TmB4. Magnetization (M) measurements show that the FPP states are thermodynamically stable when the sample is cooled in constant magnetic field from the paramagnetic phase to the ordered one at 2 K. On the other hand, after zero-field cooling and subsequent magnetization these states appear to be of dynamic origin. In this case the FPP states are closely associated with the half plateau phase (HPP, M/Msat = ½), mediate the HPP to the low-field antiferromagnetic (AF) phase and depend on the thermodynamic history. Thus, in the same place of the phase diagram both, the stable and the metastable (dynamic) fractional plateau (FP) states, can be observed, depending on the way they are reached. In case of metastable FP states thermodynamic paths are identified that lead to very flat fractional plateaus in the FPP. Moreover, with a further decrease of magnetic field also the low-field AF phase becomes influenced and exhibits a plateau of the order of 1/1000 Msat.

AbstractMany experiments investigating magnetic-field tuned superconductor-insulator transition (H-SIT) often exhibit low-temperature resistance saturation, which is interpreted as an anomalous metallic phase emerging from a ‘failed superconductor’, thus challenging conventional theory. Here we study a random granular array of indium islands grown on a gateable layer of indium-oxide. By tuning the intergrain couplings, we reveal a wide range of magnetic fields where resistance saturation is observed, under conditions of careful electromagnetic filtering and within a wide range of linear response. Exposure to external broadband noise or microwave radiation is shown to strengthen the tendency of superconductivity, where at low field a global superconducting phase is restored. Increasing magnetic field unveils an ‘avoided H-SIT’ that exhibits granularity-induced logarithmic divergence of the resistance/conductance above/below that transition, pointing to possible vestiges of the original emergent duality observed in a true H-SIT. We conclude that anomalous metallic phase is intimately associated with inherent inhomogeneities, exhibiting robust behavior at attainable temperatures for strongly granular two-dimensional systems.

The stress rupture life of DZ125 nickel-based superalloy that was prepared by directional solidification process under the temperature gradient of 500 K/cm has been studied at 900°C and 235MPa. The results showed that with the increase of directional solidification rate from 50 μm/s to 800 μm/s, the primary dendrite arm spacing reduced from 94 μm to 35.8 μm and γ' precipitates reduced and more uniformed in size. The high temperature stress rupture life of as-cast sample increased firstly and then decreased and reached its maximum at the solidification rate of 500 μm/s. The dislocation configuration of sample with refine dendritic structure after stress rupture was investigated and discovered that the dislocations in different parts of sample had different morphology and density, which indicated that the deformation of as-cast samples were uneven during high temperature stress rupture. A lot of dislocations intertwined around carbides and at the interface of γ/γ', and the dislocation networks were destroyed and the dislocations entered γ' precipitate by the way of cutting.

Ni54Mn21-xFexGa25(x=0,1,3,5,7,9)polycrystalline alloys were prepared by the technique of directional solidification and the effect of substituting Fe for Mn on the martensitic transformation and mechanical properties of the alloys was analyzed. It was found that the Curie temperature increased with increasing substitution while the martensitic transformation temperature decreased. The Fe-doped Ni54Mn21Ga25 alloys exhibit excellent magnetic properties at room temperature; the typical Ni54Mn20Fe1Ga25 alloy shows a large magnetic-induced-strain of -1040 ppm at a magnetic field of 4000 Oe.
