The precipitates of Al-5Zn-0.02In-1Mg-0.05Ti-0.5Ce (wt %) anode alloy were studied by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray microanalysis, high resolution transmission electron microscopy and selected area electron diffraction analyses in the present work. The results show that the alloy mainly contains hexagonal structure MgZn2 and tetragonal structure Al2CeZn2 precipitates. From high resolution transmission electron microscopy and selected area electron diffraction, aluminium, Al2CeZn2 and MgZn2 phases have [0 1 -1]Al|| [1 -10]Al2CeZn2|| [-1 1 0 1]MgZn2orientation relation, and Al2CeZn2 and MgZn2 phases have the [0 2 -1]Al2CeZn2|| [0 1 -10]MgZn2orientation relation.

The Impact

AbstractThe dodecagonal (dd) quasicrystalline tantalum telluride dd Ta1.6Te and the crystalline approximant Ta97Te60 have been modified by partly replacing tantalum by vanadium. The impact of the substitution on the structures has been studied by X-ray and electron diffraction and by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy. The layered-type approximant structure of Ta83V14Te60 was determined by single crystal X-ray means. The partitioning of vanadium on 21 out of 29 crystallographically inequivalent metal sites is referred to, but not controlled by the Dirichlet domain volume available at the sites. A HRTEM projection of dd (Ta, V)1.6Te onto the dodecagonal plane is analysed with respect to the arrangement of (Ta, V)151Te74 clusters on the vertices of an irregular aperiodic square-triangle tiling, the edge length of which corresponds to the distance between the centres of two such clusters. The clusters comprise about 1 nm thick corrugated lamellae which are periodically stacked by weak Te-Te interactions.

Single phase AlN nanowires are fabricated by a sublimation method. They were characterized by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), typical selected area electron diffraction (SAED) and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). The SEM and TEM images show that most of the nanowires have diameters of about 10–60 nm. The crystal structure of AlN nanowires revealed by XRD, SAED and HRTEM shows the AlN nanowires have a wurtzite structure.

AbstractA new method for synthesis of 2D nanocrystals in water was proposed. The use of perfluorothiophenolate ions as surfactant allowed us to produce 2D single-crystal nanosheets of CaS at pH=9 and flat nanocrystals of PbS at pH=9 at room temperature. Mesocrystalline nanobelts of CdS and mesocrystals of PbS were obtained at pH=3–5 and pH=10–12, respectively. Morphology, structure and chemical composition of nanoparticles were characterized by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, electron diffraction and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. A mechanism of nanoparticles formation was discussed.

AbstractTi doped NaAlH4 hydride is proposed as a reversible hydrogen storage material. In this work, the microstructure of NaAlH4 with 2% TiCl3 additive was studied after 5 hydrogen cycles using a combination of transmission electron microscopy (TEM) techniques including energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) X-ray analysis. Selected area diffraction and high-resolution (HR) imaging confirmed the presence of the NaH phase in the material. Electron diffraction was dominated by Al. HRTEM showed the presence of edge dislocations, which might influence the hydrogen diffusivity process in these materials.

Single-crystallineLiMn2O4nanotubes and nanowires have been synthesized via a low-temperature molten salt synthesis method, using the preparedβ-MnO2nanotubes andα-MnO2nanowires as the precursors and self-sacrificing template. The materials were investigated by a variety of techniques, including X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). The results indicate that the preparedLiMn2O4nanotube and nanowire samples are both spinel phase, have lengths up to several micrometers and diameters of hundreds and tens of nanometers, respectively.

The ordering of cations within the perovskite structure can have a profound effect on the physical properties. A number of AA′BB′O6 perovskite phases which have both a rock salt ordering of the B/B′ cations and a layered ordering of the A/A′ cations have recently been prepared and studied. In some of these compositions complex nanoscale superstructure formation has been observed. These superstructures are the result of compositional modulations involving the occupancies of the A and A′ cations and are accompanied by a twinning of the octahedral tilt system. A wide variety of patterns are observed, such as 1-dimensional stripes or 2-dimensional chessboards which can have periodicities which are either commensurate or incommensurate with the underlying subcell. These superstructures cannot be easily detected by powder X-ray diffraction but have been observed using a combination of high resolution transmission electron microscopy, electron diffraction, and neutron powder diffraction. The factors which determine the dimensionality and periodicity of the superstructures are discussed and compared with the closely related Li based perovskite systems.

Special attention was paid to the microstructure of the nanocrystallines using high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HREM). Probable mechanisms for the sonochemical formation of Fe 3 O 4 and ZnFe 2 O 4 nanocrystallines are discussed.

In this work, the crystal structure of the rod-shaped precipitate in aged Al -1.0 mass% Mg2Ge alloy at 523 K has been investigated by high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), electron diffraction technique and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). The rod-shaped precipitate in its alloy has showed the similar arrangement of bright dots in its HRTEM images and selected area diffraction pattern (SADP) to those of the b’-phase in Al-Mg2Si alloy. But a lattice constant of this precipitate in Al-Mg2Ge alloy was slightly larger than the b’-phase in Al-Mg2Si alloy. In addition, the new metastable phase has been found out in Al-Mg-Ge alloy.
