Abstract
Carbon polymer dots (CPDs) has represented unique potential in reconciling the incompatible properties of strength and electrical conductivity (EC) in copper matrix composites, while the mechanisms underlying EC improvement remain to be fully elucidated. 0.2CPDs/Cu composites prepared by conventional powder metallurgy processes achieves excellent mechanical and electrical conductivity simultaneously. Compared to pure Cu, CPDs not only participated in the construction of a better electronic transport pathway, but accelerated the twinning forming behavior, leading to outstanding strength(∼423 MPa) and electrical conductivity(95%IACS). Here the conductive behavior of CPDs/Cu composites was revealed through characterizing the intrinsic electrical properties of CPDs and composites microstructure evolution. CPDs not only participated in the construction of a better electronic transport pathway, but accelerated the twinning forming behavior. Increased twinning domain leads to the remarkable amelioration of grain boundary resistance, meanwhile, the intragranular CPDs made a significant contribution on the enhanced mechanical strength via Orowan strengthening. This work makes up the lack of understanding on the mechanical and electrical enhancement mechanism in our prior research.
期刊介绍:
DRM is a leading international journal that publishes new fundamental and applied research on all forms of diamond, the integration of diamond with other advanced materials and development of technologies exploiting diamond. The synthesis, characterization and processing of single crystal diamond, polycrystalline films, nanodiamond powders and heterostructures with other advanced materials are encouraged topics for technical and review articles. In addition to diamond, the journal publishes manuscripts on the synthesis, characterization and application of other related materials including diamond-like carbons, carbon nanotubes, graphene, and boron and carbon nitrides. Articles are sought on the chemical functionalization of diamond and related materials as well as their use in electrochemistry, energy storage and conversion, chemical and biological sensing, imaging, thermal management, photonic and quantum applications, electron emission and electronic devices.
The International Conference on Diamond and Carbon Materials has evolved into the largest and most well attended forum in the field of diamond, providing a forum to showcase the latest results in the science and technology of diamond and other carbon materials such as carbon nanotubes, graphene, and diamond-like carbon. Run annually in association with Diamond and Related Materials the conference provides junior and established researchers the opportunity to exchange the latest results ranging from fundamental physical and chemical concepts to applied research focusing on the next generation carbon-based devices.
