Microstructure observation using MeV-electron-irradiation-induced amorphization
2011, Journal of Alloys and CompoundsCitation Excerpt :The intermetallic compounds that lie close to the liquidus valley in the T–C diagram show a strong tendency to undergo SSA, while those intermetallic compounds that are far from the liquidus valley do not. The effect of the position of an intermetallic compound in the phase diagram on its glass-forming ability (GFA) during electron-irradiation-induced SSA is greater than the effects of the structure [6,12,13], transition temperature [6], and solubility [6,14,15] of the compound. In other words, intermetallic compounds whose positions coincide with a deep eutectic exhibit high GFA through irradiation-induced SSA.
Electron-irradiation-induced solid-state amorphization caused by thermal relaxation of lattice defects
2010, IntermetallicsCitation Excerpt :Intermetallic compounds that lie close to the liquidus valley in the T-C diagram show a strong tendency to undergo SSA, while intermetallic compounds that are far from the liquidus valley do not. The position of an intermetallic compound in the phase diagram has a greater effect on its glass-forming ability (GFA) during electron-irradiation-induced SSA than do the structure [3,7,8], transition temperature [3], and solubility [3,9,10] of the compound. A plot of chemical enthalpy of mixing (ΔHchem) versus mismatch entropy (Sσ/kB) map [11,12] is effective in predicting the alloy composition at which a metallic amorphous phase can be obtained by LQ.
Modelling irradiation induced glass transition in thin films
2004, Journal of Non-Crystalline SolidsCitation Excerpt :While a fundamental theory of the crystal-amorphous (c → a) transformation is lacking, phenomenological approaches must take into account the mechanisms of chemical disordering and defect formation, migration and accumulation that are able to bring the free energy, ΔGbomb, of the bombarded target to a value larger than the free energy difference, ΔGc→a, between the reference crystalline state and the amorphous state. Chemical disordering, that precedes amorphization [2], is able to drive amorphization, e.g., in electron irradiated alloys [3]. Crystal destabilization starts at crystal imperfections such as grain boundaries, line defects, and free surfaces [3].
