The reaction mechanism between electroless Ni–P and Sn was investigated to understand the effects of Sn on solder reaction-assisted crystallization at low temperatures as well as self-crystallization of Ni–P at high temperatures. Ni3Sn4 starts to form in a solid-state reaction well before Sn melts. Heat of reaction for Ni3Sn4 was measured during the Ni–P and Sn reaction (241.2 J/g). It was found that the solder reaction not only promotes crystallization at low temperatures by forming Ni3P in the P-rich layer but also facilitates self-crystallization of Ni–P by reducing the transformation temperature and heat of crystallization. The presence of Sn reduces the self-crystallization temperature of Ni–P by about 10 °C. The heat of crystallization also decreases with an increased Sn thickness.

AbstractNickel monosilicide (NiSi) nanowires (NWs) were fabricated by metal-induced growth at 575 °C. The solid-state reaction of Ni and Si provides linear grown NWs. The parallel grown NW forms a nanobridge (NB) across a trench, patterned with a simple optical lithography and metal lift-off method. The Ni pads gave a good Ohmic contact without affecting the I-V transport characteristics through a NB. The metallic NB, 2.73 µm in length and 50 nm in diameter, gave a low resistance of 148 . The self-assembled nanobridge can be applied to form nanocontacts at relatively low temperatures. The MIG NB is a promising 1 dimensional nanoscale building block to satisfy the need of ‘self and direct’ assembled ‘bottom-up’ fabrication concepts.

In the self-assembly process of β-Si3N4 (SN)/316L stainless-steel (SUS316L) composite materials tailored via sintering of powder mixtures, the formation of a SN agglomerate resulting from condensation–dispersion reactions during the stirring of SN/SUS316L was found to play an important role in improving the thermal conductivity. Moreover, the obtained SN secondary particle groups connected to form a network through diffusion-limited aggregation. In particular, it was shown that the sample prepared at the milling speed of 150 r/min has a similar particle group area (about 1.38 μm2) to that at 120 r/min, but a higher κ (increased from 9.5 W m−1 K−1 to 11.5 W m−1 K−1). To quantitatively evaluate the microstructural morphology of the texture of the self-assembled composite material, global parameters τ( q) and D q and local parameters α( q) and f( α) were determined via multifractal analysis. These characteristics of the anisotropy, dispersion, and cohesiveness of the particle network in the material texture could be analyzed together with the capacity dimension D0, information dimension D1 (configuration entropy), correlation dimension D2, and α( q) (related to internal energy). The results suggest that α( q) reflects the differences in the cohesion of the additive particle agglomeration that constitutes the self-assembly process under the solid-state reaction.

AbstractTo clarify the evolution of interfacial features between MnO-SiO2 type inclusions and Si-Mn killed steel during isothermal heating at low temperatures, two diffusion couple samples were investigated under heat treatment at 1173 K and 1273 K, respectively. The experimental results show that the diffusion of oxygen from the oxide to the alloy is the restrictive link of the solid-state reaction between MnO-SiO2-FeO oxide and steel matrix at low heating temperatures. With increasing heating time or temperature, more FeO in the oxide decomposed, and the resulting oxygen diffused into the alloy and reacted with Mn and Si elements. The critical heating temperature at which the interfacial reaction can occur was determined to be 1173 K. And a dynamic model that predicts the change in the width of the particles precipitation zone at low temperatures was also established based on Wagner equation.
