Advanced Materials
Popularization of portable electronics and electric vehicles worldwide stimulates the development of energy storage devices, such as batteries and supercapacitors, toward higher power density and energy density, which significantly depends upon the advancement of new materials used in these devices. Moreover, energy storage materials play a key role in efficient, clean, and versatile use of energy, and are crucial for the exploitation of renewable energy. Therefore, energy storage materials cover a wide range of materials and have been receiving intensive attention from research and development to industrialization. In this Review, firstly a general introduction is given to several typical energy storage systems, including thermal, mechanical, electromagnetic, hydrogen, and electrochemical energy storage. Then the current status of high-performance hydrogen storage materials for on-board applications and electrochemical energy storage materials for lithium-ion batteries and supercapacitors is introduced in detail. The strategies for developing these advanced energy storage materials, including nanostructuring nano-/microcombination, hybridization, pore-structure control, configuration design, surface modification, and composition optimization, are discussed. Finally, the future trends and prospects in the development of advanced energy storage materials are highlighted.

Friction stir processing (FSP), developed based on the basic principles of friction stir welding (FSW), a solid-state joining process originally developed for aluminum alloys, is an emerging metalworking technique that can provide localized modification and control of microstructures in near-surface layers of processed metallic components. The FSP causes intense plastic deformation, material mixing, and thermal exposure, resulting in significant microstructural refinement, densification, and homogeneity of the processed zone. The FSP technique has been successfully used for producing the fine-grained structure and surface composite, modifying the microstructure of materials, and synthesizing the composite and intermetallic compound in situ. In this review article, the current state of the understanding and development of FSP is addressed.

The status of research, development of superalloys and materials processing & fabrication technologies for aero-engine applications in China Aviation Industry, with an emphasis on recent achievements at BIAM including directionally solidified and single crystal superalloys for blade and vane applications, wrought superalloys for aero-engine disks and rings, and powder metallurgy (PM) superalloys for high performance disk applications were described. It was also reviewed the development of new class of high temperature structural materials, such as structural intermetallics, and advanced material processing technologies including rapid solidification, spray forming and so on. The trends of research and development of the above mentioned superalloys and processing technologies are outlined. Cast, wrought and PM superalloys are the workhorse materials for the hot section of current aero-engines. New high temperature materials and advanced processing technologies have been and will be the subject of study. It is speculated that high performance, high purity and low cost superalloys and technologies will play key roles in aero-engines.

The morphology of the dark and bright regions observed by transmission electron microscopy for the Zr(64.13)Cu(15.75)Ni(10.12)Al(10) bulk metallic glass strongly depends on the ion beam parameters used for ion milling. This indicates that the ion beam could introduce surface fluctuation to metallic glasses during ion milling.

Since the late 1980's there have been a number of research efforts aimed at exploring and developing the refractory intermetalllic materials for service at temperatures which compete with the nickel-based superalloys in structural applications. These efforts have documented the physical and mechanical properties of a broad set of compositions. However, only in the last three years have these efforts yielded sufficient experimental results on single selected systems to suggest that damage tolerance, creep resistance and oxidation resistance may be obtained and controlled simultaneously. These findings led to alloy development concepts and approaches which are currently under investigation and are expected to lead to research focused on a smaller set of alloys. An overview of selected alloy development strategies and resulting structural properties is presented herein.

Materials Characterization
Segregation of yttrium induces the formation of Y0.25Zr0.75O2-x and Y0.5Zr0.5O2-y microdomains, with L1(2)- and L1(0)-like ordered structures, in ZrO2-6mol%Y2O3 ceramics in both the sintered and annealed states. The compositions of precipitates such as (chi L), (chi S), (chi SS), and small precipitates formed inside XL, in Cu-11.88Al-5.06Ni-1.63Mn-0.96Ti (wt.%) shape memory alloys have been determined. Under electron beam irradiation, four types of dynamic behavior of the G.P. zones were observed in the Al-6.58Zn-2.33Mg-2.40Cu (wt.%) alloy. The G.P. zone and "G.P. zone-like" defect structures were also distinguished. Lattice distortion profile in the GaAs/InxGa1-xAs superlattice and two-dimensional lattice distortion around a 60 degrees dislocation core in the InAs(x)P(1-)x/InP superlattice were determined.

In a magnetic system, consistent with Griffiths analyticity requirements one can parameterize the equation of state near criticality by writing H = r(beta delta)h(theta), T = rt(theta) and the magnetization M = r(beta)m(theta), where T is measured from the critical temperature. For the insulating ferromagnet CrBr(3), the experimental data of Ho and Litster [J.T. Ho, J.D. Litster, Phys. Rev. Lett. 22 (1969) 6031 is well fitted by m(theta) as a linear function of theta [P. Schofield, J.D. Litster, J.T Ho, Phys. Rev. Lett. 23 (1969) 1098]. Also Ho and Litster give beta = 0.368, gamma = 1.215 and delta = 4.3. Those critical experiments are very close to the recent 31) king results of Zhang [Z.D. Zhang, Philos. Mag. 87 (2007) 5309], namely beta = 3/8, gamma = 5/4 and delta = 13/3. We therefore predict that m(theta) will be proportional to theta as a fingerprint of the 3D Ising Hamiltonian. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
