Powder Cd of 99.999% purity was prepared at room temperature (25 °C) and x-ray diffraction patterns were obtained using CuKaα radiation with Ni-filter. The line broadening was analyzed after incorporating the appropriate correction factors. At room temperature Cd was found to have large particle size (653 A), small root mean square strain (.001), small deformation fault probability a (.003). and negligible growth fault probability β(0). Compared to other hep metals which have been studied earlier and which have higher melting temperatures, metal Cd is much less affected by mechanical deformation at room temperature.

Abstract Microstructures of polycrystalline hexagonal close packed (hep) Zn and Mg have been studied by x-ray diffraction line broadening analysis using the integral breadth method, and the Fourier coefficient method. For these two methods, several diffraction peaks were considered to obtain two suitable peak combinations. For the room temperature powder samples, the root mean square (rms) strain was observed to be extremely small. The particle size was anisotropic in both samples with the Zn powder showing more particle size variation than Mg. The average particle size for Zn was about 750 Å, which was over twice the average particle size of 295 Å observed in Mg. The two fault probabilities for Zn turned out to be negligible or zero. Mg, on the other hand, was found to have small, but definite fault probabilities. The deformation fault probability a was 4.5X10-4 and the growth fault prob-ability β was 6.5X10-4 . These results can be compared with the previous work of hep Cd at room temperature, which was found to have no growth fault probability β and a deformation fault prob-ability a amounting to 3X10-3 . This value is higher than that observed in Mg, because for Cd the two fault probabilities were obtained by neglecting the particle size of about 650 Å which actually did exist in the sample.

Abstract The structures of the equiatomic stannides RERhSn with the smaller rare earth elements Y, Gd-Tm and Lu were reinvestigated on the basis of temperature-dependent single crystal X-ray diffraction data. GdRhSn crystallizes with the aristotype ZrNiAl at 293 and 90 K. For RE = Y, Tb, Ho and Er the HP-CeRuSn type (approximant with space group R3m) is already formed at room temperature, while DyRhSn adopts the HP-CeRuSn type below 280 K. TmRhSn and LuRhSn show incommensurate modulated variants with superspace groups P31m(1/3; 1/3; γ) 000 (No. 157.1.23.1) (γ = 3/8 for TmRhSn and γ = 2/5 for LuRhSn). The driving force for superstructure formation (modulation) is a strengthening of Rh–Sn bonding. The modulation is expressed in a 119Sn Mössbauer spectrum of DyRhSn at 78 K through line broadening.

The aims of this research were study the microstructures and mechanical properties for partial replacement of cement with Fly ash (FA) and kaolin waste (KW). Ordinary Portland cement were partially replaced with FA and KW in the range of 25-35% and 10-25% by weight of cement powder. The kaolin waste was ground for 180 minutes before using. The specimen was packing into an iron mold which sample size of 5×5×5 cm3. Then, the specimens were kept at room temperature for 24 hours and were moist cured in the incubation lime water bath at age of 3 days. After that the specimens were dry cured with plastic wrap at age of 3, 7, 14 and 28 days. After that the compounds were examined by x-ray diffraction patterns (XRD) and the microstructures were examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The compressive strength was then investigated.

The influences of the substitution of Ni with Mg on crystallographic and magnetic properties of the intermetallic alloys LaNi5-xMgx (x ≤ 0.4) were investigated. The X-ray diffraction patterns showed that all samples were of single phase, and the lattice parameters, a and c, decreased slightly upon chemical doping. LaNi5 is well known as an exchange-enhanced Pauli paramagnet. Interestingly, in LaNi5-xMgx, the ferromagnetic order existed even with a small amount of dopants; the Curie temperature reached the value of room temperature for x = 0.2, and enhanced with increasing x.

This study is to investigate the crystallite development in nanostructured aluminium using x-ray line broadening analysis. Nanostructured aluminium was produced by equal channel angular extrusion at room temperature to a total deformation strain of ~17. Samples of the extruded metal were then heat treated at temperatures up to 300oC. High order diffraction peaks were obtained using Mo radiation and the integral breadth was determined. It was found that as the annealing temperature increased, the integral breadth of the peak reflections decreased. By establishing the modified Williamson-Hall plots (integral breadth vs contract factor) after instrumental correction, it was determined that the crystallite size of the metal was maintained ~80 nm at 100oC. As the annealing temperature increased to 200oC, the crystallite size increased to ~118 nm. With increasing annealing temperature, the hardness of the metal decreased from ~60 HV to ~45 HV.

Chemical Solution Route

A chemical co-reduction route in aqueous solution was developed to synthesize Bi100−xSbx alloys at room temperature. The hydrolyses of Bi(III) and Sb(III) were effectively avoided by selecting proper raw materials and coordinator. X-ray diffraction analysis indicated that the as-prepared Bi100−xSbx alloys were homogeneous and phase-pure, and the Bi/Sb ratios in the alloys were very close to those in the aqueous solutions. The transmission electron microscope observation showed that the as-prepared Bi100−xSbx (x = 0∼100) alloys were particles with a size of tens of nanometers. The selected area electron diffraction patterns confirmed the high crystallinity, the homogeneousness, and the composition controllability of as-prepared alloys. All these characters and the nanometer-scaled size of the alloys are believed to be beneficial to the thermoelectric property of the Bi100−xSbx alloys.

ABSTRACTThe relaxation of thermally induced strain in 500 nm thick polycrystalline Ag layers electron-beam deposited onto Si wafers was traced during ageing at room temperature. The layers consisted predominantly of matrix crystallites with {111} planes parallel to the surface and twin crystallites with {51 l} planes parallel to the surface. The macrostrain in the plane of the layer was determined from the X-ray diffraction line-profile position and the microstrain from the diffraction-line broadening. The residual macrostress relaxed from 160 MPa to 30 MPa in the matrix crystallites and from 170 MPa to 50 MPa in the twin crystallites. Simultaneously with the decrease in macrostress the microstrain decreases significantly for both texture fractions. The strain relaxation behaviour is governed by movement and subsequent annihilation of defects in the layer.

A system enabling X-ray diffraction patterns under controlled conditions of relative humidity and temperature has been devised and combined with an X-ray powder diffractometer. Relative humidity in the sample space is controlled by mixing dry N2 gas with saturated water vapor. Temperatures of the sample and inner wall of the sample chamber are monitored by two attached thermocouples and the information was fed back to the control unit. Relative humidity between 0% and the 95%, and temperature between room temperature and 60 °C can be controlled. All parameters including those for XRD are programmable and the system runs automatically. The function of the system was checked by recording the XRD patterns of montmorillonite (a clay mineral) and NaCl under increasing and decreasing relative humidity.
