Boride layer formation was carried out on AISI 316 L steel at 1123–1223 K for different exposure times at each temperature, considering 10 s polarity inversion cycles. The boride layer was characterized by x-ray diffraction and high-speed Berkovich nanoindentation, the latter being used to determine the hardness and reduced Young’s modulus mappings along the depth of the layer-substrate system. Moreover, the growth kinetics of the FeB–Fe2B layer on the steel’s surface was modeled using the heat balance integral method (HBIM). This involved transforming Fick’s second law into ordinary differential equations over time, assuming a quadratic boron concentration profile in space to determine the B diffusion coefficients in FeB and Fe2B, respectively. From the Arrhenius relationship, the B activation energies in the boride layer were estimated considering the contribution of the electromigration effect; the results showed an approximately 30% reduction compared to the values obtained in the conventional powder-pack boriding for AISI 316 L steel. Finally, the theoretical layer thickness obtained by the HBIM demonstrated an error of no more than 5% against the experimental FeB and FeB + Fe2B layer thickness values.","PeriodicalId":509398,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Vacuum Science & Technology A","volume":" 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141831401","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Employing magnetron sputtering to produce films is advantageous for achieving a consistent dispersion of Fe within the Cu matrix. Furthermore, the addition of Ni will result in a more uniform distribution of Fe and facilitate the formation of the ferromagnetic Ni3Fe phase. In this study, Cu100−xFex and Cu100−x(Ni3/4Fe1/4)x series films were prepared by magnetron sputtering technique. The magnetic properties of films are closely related to their ferromagnetic element content. An increase in the content of ferromagnetic elements leads to an improvement in the saturation magnetization (MS) strength and a decrease in the coercivity (HC). The formation of Fe-Fe pairs is more favorable for magnetic properties compared to Ni-Fe pairs. Meanwhile, by comparing with bulk alloys, the distribution of the magnetic elements severely affects the magnetic properties. Moreover, the resistivity of Cu100−xFex films (20.3–96.7 μΩ cm) is much higher than that of Cu100−x(Ni3/4Fe1/4)x films (15.6–60.6 μΩ cm), which depends on the magnetic properties. This study systematically analyzes the effect of the content and distribution of magnetic elements on magnetic and electrical properties.","PeriodicalId":509398,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Vacuum Science & Technology A","volume":"6 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141267048","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Then, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, potentiodynamic polarization, potentiostatic polarization (PSP), and interfacial contact resistance (ICR) of the three coatings were also fully examined. The results revealed that CrN coating has the highest contact angle of 98.26°, indicating its superior hydrophobicity. Additionally, CrN coating performed the best corrosion resistance with the highest corrosion potential of 0.31 V, the lowest corrosion current density of 2.28 × 10−7 A cm−2, and the largest resistance. Furthermore, CrN coating showed the lowest current density during PSP tests and the smallest ICR value after corrosion. The superior corrosion resistance of CrN coating is mainly attributed to its decreased pore density caused by vacancylike defects and its uniform structure.

However, the strength and corrosion resistance of the alloy still need to be improved. In this paper, FeCoNiAl0.2Yx (x = 0, 0.05, 0.1, 0.2, and 0.3 in mole ratio) high entropy alloys with different contents of rare earth (RE) element yttrium (Y) were prepared by the vacuum arc melting method, and then the alloys were subjected to annealing treatment at 800 °C/2h. The microstructure, hardness, magnetism, and corrosion performance of FeCoNiAl0.2Yx HEAs in the annealed state with different contents of element Y were analyzed. The results show that the annealed FeCoNiAl0.2Yx HEAs without the addition of element Y and after the addition of element Y both were composed of a face-centered cubic phase. The alloy showed a dendritic structure inside. The element Y was solidly dissolved in the alloys to refine the microstructure of the alloys, and the dendrites were gradually refined with the addition of Y. The Y element caused the phenomenon of lattice distortion inside the alloys, which led to the increase in the alloys’ hardness. The alloy with x = 0.2 showed the greatest exchange of magnetic atoms and the alloy with x = 0.05 showed the lowest coercivity. The alloy with x = 0.1 showed the lowest self-corrosion current density, the broadest passivation zone, the densest dendrites, the smallest grain spacing, and the weakest tendency for intergranular corrosion. The present study shows that the introduction of element Y improves the microstructural morphology, hardness, magnetism, and corrosion properties of FeCoNiAl0.2Yx HEAs in the annealed state.","PeriodicalId":509398,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Vacuum Science & Technology A","volume":"5 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141104880","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, accessing the defect distribution within the sample primarily relies on simulation, yet a number of factors remain unaccounted for in the simulation results, ultimately resulting in numerous inaccuracies. To address this issue, a defect distribution investigation method based on the combination of argon ion etching and deep-ultraviolet (DUV) Raman spectroscopy has been established. The defects at different depths were exposed to the surface by etching, and the crystal quality of the surface layer was assessed using Raman spectra with a 266 nm DUV laser. The spectra for the H+ implanted 4H-SiC showed that the full width at half maximum of the transverse optical mode at 781 cm−1 and the longitudinal optical mode at 965 cm−1 exhibited an increasing and then decreasing trend, approximate to a Gaussian distribution. These results were confirmed with the transmission electron microscopy cross-sectional image and SRIM-2013 simulation.

Diamond/Cu composites (55% volume fraction) with three distinct interfacial carbides were fabricated via sintering at 950 °C using Cu and diamond powder coated with Ti, Cr, and W. During the sintering process, interfacial layers of TiC, Cr3C2, and W2C carbides formed at the composite interfaces. The findings reveal that the interfacial bonding strength among these three composites adheres to the following hierarchy: Ti-D/Cu exceeds Cr-D/Cu, which surpasses W-D/Cu. This hierarchy stems from the varying degrees of carbide coating integrity attained at 950 °C. Furthermore, the coating morphology differs on the diamond-{100} and -{111} crystal planes. Notably, among the interfacial carbides, TiC coating exhibits the most compact and contiguous structure postsintering. Consequently, Ti-D/Cu composites boast the highest density, reaching 95.49%, along with a remarkable TC of 317.66 W/mK. A comparative analysis of the fracture morphology of these composites reveals that Ti-D/Cu, characterized by the most robust interfacial bonding, exhibits a intransgranular fracture mechanism. This study offers profound insights and theoretical implications for the interface design of diamond/Cu composites, paving the way for their effective utilization in heat dissipation materials.","PeriodicalId":509398,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Vacuum Science & Technology A","volume":"61 8","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141123410","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The reaction between Ni- and C-containing particles was discussed, and the influences of bilayer periods on the structure and morphology, accompanied with the frictional behaviors at different loading forces (2 and 5 N), as well as the field emission properties were investigated. The results showed that Ni grew in the (111) plane, and there was no Ni–C bond or graphene formed in the film because of the relatively lower energy during deposition. Moreover, the content of sp2C in the film, the hardness, and the field emission performance exhibited an initial increase followed by a subsequent decrease with increasing bilayer periods. However, the frictional coefficient decreased owing to more graphitization with an increase of the applied load. Particularly noteworthy was that the film possessed a bilayer period of 710 nm, displayed a compact structure with a smaller grain size, and showed reduced sp2C content in the role of Ni. This resulted in sustained lower surface roughness, heightened hardness, decreased coefficient of friction, and a smaller opening electric field.","PeriodicalId":509398,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Vacuum Science & Technology A","volume":"30 12","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139962754","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
