Cu-Ni-Zn/Cu-Zr/Cu-Ni-Zn three layered clad plates were prepared by high pressure torsioning (HPT) at room temperature and theirmicrostructural and mechanical analyses wereperformed. No intermetallic compounds were observed at Cu-Zr/Cu-Ni-Zn interfaces in the as-HPTed and heat-treated Cu/Ni-Zn/Cu-Zr/Cu-Ni-Zn clad plates. The strength of as-HPTed clad plate reached up to 610 MPa with the ductility of 14%. After heat treatment at 500oC, Cu-Ni-Zn/Cu-Zr/Cu-Ni-Zn clad plate exhibited the strength up to 490 MPa and the ductility of 28 %. The clad plate fractured all together at the same time without discontinuous drop of the stress until final fracture. The excellent mechanical reliability and the good interfacialbonding strength can be attributed to the absence of detrimental interfacial reaction compounds between Cu-Ni-Zn and Cu-Zr.

Cu-1 wt. % Cr was clad between Cu-Ni-Zn plates to form 3-layered composite by high pressure torsioning (HPT) at room temperature and theirmicrostructure and mechanical propertieswereexamined. No intermetallic compounds were observed at the interfaces in the as-HPTed and heat-treated 3-layered composite plates. The strength of as-HPTed composite plate reached up to 650 MPa with the ductility of 7 %. After heat treatment at 500oC, Cu-Ni-Zn/Cu-Cr/Cu-Ni-Zn clad plate exhibited the strength up to 420 MPa and the ductility of 32 %. The clad plate fractured all together at the same time without discontinuous drop of the stress until final fracture. The excellent mechanical reliability and the good interfacial bonding strength can be attributed to the absence of detrimental interfacial reaction compounds between Cu-Ni-Zn and Cu-Cr.

In this study Cu-Ag or Cu-Cr layer was sandwiched by Ti and Fe plates and the three layers of Ti/Cu-8Ag/S20C were clad by High Pressure Torsioning(HPT). The effect of post-HPT heat treatment on the interfacial reaction products and the mechanical performance in Ti/Cu-Ag/S20C and Ti/Cu-Cr/S20C clad material were studied. Cu4Ti3 and Cu4Ti Intremetallic compound layers were observed at the Ti/Cu-Ag and Ti/Cu-Cr interfaces in the clad heat-treated at 500°C where as no intermetallic compounds were observed at the Cu-Ag/S20C and Cu-Cr/S20C interfaces. The strength of as-HPTed Ti/Cu-8Ag/S20C is much higher than that of Ti/Cu-1Cr/S20C. The strengthening mechanism of Cu-Ag deformed severely is the interface and strain hardening in which dislocations are deposited at the Cu/Ag interfaces and can contribute to the strengthening of the clad composite just after HPT processing, rendering the high strength just after processing. In both clad composites, the strength and ductility increased after heat treatment at 350°C, which are likely caused by the enhanced bonding at the interfaces.

3-ply Cu-Ni-Zn/Cu-Cr/Cu-Ni-Zn clad composite plates were prepared by roll bonding at 823K and their properties were characterized. No intermetallic compounds were observed at Cu-Ni-Zn/Cu-Cr interfaces in the as-rolled and heat-treated Cu/Ni-Zn/Cu-Cr/Cu-Ni-Zn clad plates. The strength of as-rolled clad plate reached up to 420MPa with the ductility of 13%. After heat treatment at 723K for 1.5 hours, the strength of Cu-Ni-Zn/Cu-Cr/Cu-Ni-Zn clad composite plate dropped to 340 MPa and the ductility increased to 20%. With annealing at 723K, there is no drastic drop of the stress before final fracture, meaning three plates were bonded together until the last part of the stress-strain curve. The peak of the conductivity (>70% of IACS) was attained after aging for 1.5 hrs, compatible with the typical peak aging condition of Cu-Cr alloy.

ABSTRACTHighly officient radiative recombination even at room temperature was found at a wavelength of about 1.3 μm in heat-treated Si-doped GaAs. The range of Si concentrations and the condition of heat-treatment to yield this intense luminescence were determined. Excitation spectra of the PL lines suggest that such PL lines are related to pairs of Si-donor and Si- acceptor and such pairs combined with gallium vacancies.

The mechanical properties and microstructure of layered Cu/Al/Cu composites was investigated after annealing at various temperatures. The nature of intermetallic compounds in roll-bonded Cu/Al/Cu clad metals after heat treatment was investigated using SEM, XRD and EBSD.in the temperature range 200~500oC. In the roll-bonded 3-ply Cu/Al/Cu clad metal, no visible interfacial reaction compound and defects were observed at the interfaces. The reaction layer was observed grow rapidly at the Cu/Al interface after annealing at and above 400oC, which deteriorated the ductility of clad metals. Intermetallic reaction layers of Cu/Al/Cu clad materials annealed at 500oC for 3, 5, 10hours was found to consist of three layers, CuAl2, CuAl and Cu9Al4. EBSD analyses revealed that intermetallic layers are polycrystalline. The drastic decrease of stress and elongation in Cu/Al/Cu clad composite annealed at 500oC can be linked to the interfacial cracks between Al and Cu layer.

Ti-6Al-4V alloy was heated to above the β phase transformation temperature with two different cooling speeds: air cooling and furnace cooling, in order to generate a full thin lamellar structure and a fully coarse lamellar structure, respectively. Then the alloy in two heat-treated conditions was processed at room temperature up to 10 turns by high-pressure torsion (HPT) processing. Investigations were carried out to study the effect of the different initial lamellar plate thicknesses on the microstructure development during HPT processing, and the corresponding superplastic behaviour at the selected low testing temperatures of 773 - 923 K.

AbstractIrradiation of crystalline n -type silicon carbide ( n -SiC) with high-energy (53-MeV) argon ions was used to create near-surface semi-insulating ( i -SiC) layers. The influence of subsequent heat treatment on the electrical characteristics of i -SiC layers has been studied. The most high-ohmic ion-irradiated i -SiC layers with room-temperature resistivity of no less than 1.6 × 10^13 Ω cm were obtained upon the heat treatment at 600°C, whereas the resistivity of such layers heat-treated at 230°C was about 5 × 10^7 Ω cm.

Regarding the use of hydrogen as a fuel, it is necessary to measure its concentration in air at room temperature. In this paper, sensitive composite films have been developed for surface acoustic wave (SAW) sensors, using quantum dots (QDs) and polymers. Si/SiO2 QDs were used due to having a high specific surface area, which considerably improves the sensitivity of the sensors compared to those that only have a polymer. Si/SiO2 QDs were obtained by laser ablation and analyzed by X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Two types of polymers were used: polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA). Polymer and polymer with QDs compositions were deposited on the sensor substrate by drop casting. A heat treatment was performed on the films at 80 °C with a thermal dwell of two hours. The sensors obtained were tested at different hydrogen concentrations at room temperature. A limit of detection (LOD) of 452 ppm was obtained by the sensor with PDMS and Si/SiO2 QDs, which was heat treated. The results demonstrated the potential of using QDs to improve the sensitivity of the SAW sensors and to achieve a heat treatment that increases its adsorption capacity of the gas molecules.

When polycrystalline TiO2 (rutile) pellets (∼1mm in thickness and ∼3 mm in diameter), dispersed with Pt particles to act as a catalyst, were heat-treated under certain conditions involving an applied electric field, new unusual microstructures were formed. The heat-treatment procedure was, as follows: 1) apply 1 volt dc field between two Pt electrodes inbedded into the pellet, 2) heat the sample to 750°C and begin cycling the sample between oxydizing (4% O2 in N2) and reducing (2% CO in N2) atmospheres at a rate of several cycles per hour, 3) lower the temperature to 600°C while continually cycling (200 cycle), and, 4) cool the sample to room temperature under the reducing atmosphere (1). The pellet was ion milled to a proper electron transparency and examined by means of a Siemens EM102 and a Philips EM400 TEM-STEM microscope.Some TiO2 grains in this sample exhibited no resolvable defect structure, except that the matrix appeared to be strained due to small defects (Fig. la).
