Microstructural Evolution in Cold-Rolled Squeeze-Cast SiCw/Al Composites during Annealing

材料科学技术(英文)

A 15 vol. pct SiCCw/Al composite was fabricated by a squeeze cast route followed by hot extrusion in the extrusion ratio of 18:1 and cold rolling to 50%. Microstructural evolution in the cold rolled composite during annealing was studied using macrohardness measurement and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). It was found that, during cold rolling the plastic flow of the matrix was restricted by the whiskers around them along the rolling direction, which resulted in different microstructure from near whiskers to far away. The cold rolled composite exhibited different microstructural development on 1 h annealing at different temperatures. Under annealing at about 100℃, recovery reaction occurred obviously and the introduction of SiC whiskers resulted in enhanced recovery reaction. Under annealing above about 200℃, recrystallization (growth of nuclei by high-angle grain boundary migration) and extended recovery took place simultaneously. When annealing temperature was increased up to 500℃, recrystallization fully took place in the cold rolled microstructure. The starting temperature of recrystallization was about 200℃. Whiskers played a role in stimulating the nucleation of recrystallization.

Pulsed laser deposition of aluminate YAlO3 and LaAlO3 thin films for alternative gate dielectric applications

Applied Physics a-Materials Science & Processing

Amorphous aluminate YAlO3 (YAO) thin films on n-type silicon wafers as gate dielectric layers of metal - oxide semiconductor devices are prepared by pulsed laser deposition. As a comparison, amorphous aluminate LaAlO3 (LAO) thin films are also prepared. The structural and electrical characterization shows that the as-prepared YAO films remain amorphous until 900 degrees C and the dielectric constant is similar to 14. The measured leakage current of less than 10(-3) A/cm(2) at a bias of V-G = 1.0 V for similar to 40-nm-thick YAO and LAO films obeys the Fowler Nordheim tunneling mechanism. It is revealed that the electrical property can be significantly affected by the oxygen pressure during deposition and post rapid thermal annealing, which may change the fixed negative charge density at the gate interface.
