The wave impedance of the measuring cell section intended for filling with soil, is about 80 Ω to expand the frequency range. This allows reducing the width of the central strip and increasing the critical frequency, which cause the higher-order modes. Cell sections with the transfer from SMA connectors to measuring section are filled with a solid dielectric. The distance between outer conductors and the central strip width in these sections, are linearly increased to the size of the measuring section to provide the wave impedance of 50 Ω. The wave impedance growth in the measuring section is considered in the soil complex permittivity calculations. The complex permittivity is measured for five calibration liquids with the static permittivity of 2.27 (transformer oil) to 78.5 (water) and three soil samples with different moisture. It is shown that acceptable values of measurement error can be obtained if the real part of the complex permittivity does not exceed 23–25 units at a frequency of ~1 GHz.</p>","PeriodicalId":770,"journal":{"name":"Russian Physics Journal","volume":"67 8","pages":"1213 - 1222"},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2024-09-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142220689","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

TiNi billets were produced using dual-wire electron beam additive manufacturing by simultaneous deposition of titanium and nickel wires. The typical morphology of dendritic microstructure changes from the bottom to the top of the asbuilt billet and is characterized by large dendritic blocks in the bottom part and thin dendrites in the central and upper parts. According to the data of scanning electron microscopy energy-dispersive X-ray (SEM EDS) analysis and the phase diagrams, dendrites and interdendritic regions consist of a mixture of TiNi + TiNi₃ and TiNi + Ti₂Ni phases, respectively, but the data of X-ray analysis confirm the presence of the Ti₃Ni₄ phase as well. Annealing contributes to the partial dissolution of large dendrites in the bottom part of the billet, increase of the thin dendrite sizes, and smoothing of their forms. The data of SEM EDS analysis and XRD both testify that the multiphase mixture of different phases tends to transform into a single-phase TiNi structure during annealing, but this transformation is incomplete.

Its constituent layers are selected relying on the results of a comparative study of their physical, mechanical and tribotechnical properties. The coating architecture is based on the tribological theory and the analysis of basic requirements to protective-hardening coatings. A comparison of the coating parameters with those of its layers demonstrates that most of them exceed the latter. In particular, its hardness is found to be 40.2 ± 2.0 GPa against that of a ZrN coating equal to 31.5 ± 2.3 GPa and is at the level of the hardest (TiBSiNi)N coating layer (41.9 ± 3.6 GPa). The adhesion (strength of cohesion to substrate) of the gradient-layered coating exceeds those of its constituent layers – ZrN, (TiBSiNi)N, and (Zr+TiBSiNi)N. An annealing treatment of this coating at 700°C in air for 60 min demonstrates its high thermal stability. The proposed gradient-layered coating exhibits a higher hardness (14.8 GPa) compared to the other coating types (5.8–9.1 GPa) after annealing, which, according to the XRD analysis, can be attributed to the availability of zirconium nitrides and harder titanium nitrides in its composition. The principal criteria of the designed gradient-layered coating are its tribo-engineering tests demonstrating both a lower friction coefficient and a higher wear resistance over those of the other coatings. Its wear parameter is found to be 5.4∙10^–6 mm³N^–1m^–1 in coupling with a 100Cr6 steel counterbody compared to that of a conventional ZrN zirconium nitride coating – 43.0∙10^–6 mm³N^–1m^–1.
