A series of thermodynamics experiments were used to optimize the hot forging process of 20SiMn low-carbon alloy steel. A dynamic recrystallization and grain growth model was developed for the 20SiMn steel for common production conditions of heavy forgings by doing a nonlinear curve fit of the experiment data. Optimized forging parameters were developed based on the control of the dynamic recrystal...Show More

The grain size and magnetic properties of sintered Nd14.3 Fe78.9TM1.2B5.6(TM: Co, Cu, Al, Ga) magnets have been examined in dependence on the powder particle size and distribution. The mean grain size decreases almost linearly with the mean particle size and seems to become more homogeneous with a decreasing width of the particle size distribution. The coercivity increases with decreasing grain si...Show More
We present an efficient simulation method for metal grain growth that combines Voronoi tessellation and the Monte Carlo method. The accuracy of our model is validated through its ability to reproduce theoretical predictions of film stress and grain boundary energy. The model can identify stress hot spots and generate grain size statistics potentially useful for estimating metal line failure. Our r...Show More
The structure of Cu-Ta and Cu-Mo condensates obtained by electron-beam evaporation from various sources in a vacuum is studied. It is shown that alloying copper condensates with tantalum and molybdenum disperses the grain structure of the copper matrix from micro- to nanoscale dimension as a result of the formation of grain boundary segregations by these elements that are formed on the surface of ...Show More
Seeding is an explored way to control the final structure of Silicon PV ingots. In HPMC-Si (High Performance Multi-Crystalline-Silicon) ingots, nucleation on numerous seed grains creates grain boundaries that can terminate the propagation of dislocation clusters. In the present work, we focus on the impact of the initial growth in G2 ingots that were prepared by directional solidification with a s...Show More
It's an important method to improve the mechanical properties of forging by studying variation of the crystal grain and realizing the quantitative prediction of the forging process. The inner grain evolutionary model during stretching of shaft heavy forging was established by the microstructure project module based on the cellular automata method of Deform-3D software. The variations and distribut...Show More
A Monte Carlo (MC) simulation methodology using high performance computing (HPC) has been proposed to characterize grain growth kinetics and recrystallisation phenomena during hot rolling of C-Mn and TRIP steels.

A fully recrystallized microstructure with a fine grain size can improve the performance of superconducting radio-frequency cavities produced from high-purity Nb (ASTM B393–18 Type 5 Nb) while providing mechanical strength. Recrystallization depends on impurity content, initial microstructure, deformation state, and annealing conditions. To better understand how fine-grained, fully recrystallized ...Show More
The realization of high critical current density YBCO-based coated conductors in the RABiTS approach is primarily related to the sharpness of cube texture developed in the substrate. Among the various proposed Ni-based tapes, Ni-W alloys have attracted a particular interest either because of the enhanced mechanical properties and reduced magnetism with respect to pure Ni, or of the sharp and almos...Show More
Grain size and size distribution reduction in L10 FePt granular thin film is becoming critical to increase the areal storage density and realize the full potential of heat-assisted magnetic recording media. FePt and amorphous carbon or mixture with other segregants are often deposited at elevated temperature in order to promote the L10 ordering in FePt. Due to the materials system and high tempera...Show More
Metal oxide varistors (MOVs) are well established as surge arrestors to protect AC power transmission and distribution apparatus. Unlike the rare lightning-induced surges in AC application, MOVs are required to absorb energy repeatedly and frequently in DC circuit breakers (DCCBs). Therefore, further advances in lifetime and reliability are needed to develop MOVs for high-efficiency DCCBs. Microst...Show More

We present the results of a series of anhydrous piston cylinder experiments that illustrate the mechanisms and implications of reaction between tholeiitic melt and depleted peridotite in the uppermost mantle. To simulate infiltration–reaction processes we have applied a three-layer setup in which a layer of primitive basaltic powder (‘melt layer’) is consecutively overlain by a ‘peridotite layer’ ...Show More

Initial recrystallization texture is influenced by the bulk content of sulfur and by the final reduction. At a given bulk content of sulfur, a lower final reduction is favorable for obtaining the initial {011} Goss texture. Under a fixed final reduction, a lower bulk content of sulfur is good for this purpose. As the intensity of initial Goss texture increases, it is easier to obtain magneti...Show More
Copper Through-Silicon Via (Cu TSV) is becoming a key technology for three dimensional (3D) packaging and 3D integrated circuit (IC) applications. The microstructure of the Cu TSV is important as it not only affects the electrical properties, but ma y play a role in its reliability such as protrusion. In this study, physical vapor deposition (PVD) and electroplated (ECP) Cu TSV microstructure evol...Show More
Previously the Cu resistance transient time was found to be dependent on the electroplating current. It was shown that longer transient times were correlated with a greater incorporation of plating impurities for the bath chemistry used in this study. The present work shows that the grain growth that occurs during the resistance transient is initiated by the formation of abnormally large grains, w...Show More

Geophysical Journal International
Year: 1996 | Volume: 125, Issue: 2 | Journal Article |
The microstructural development during nucleation and growth processes is studied numerically. Most of the studies are for the simple case of constant nucleation and growth rates, but a brief discussion is made of the effect of time-dependent nucleation and growth. A 3-D code is used which accounts for not only the nucleation and growth of individual new grains, but also the effects of grain impin...Show More

Cu6Sn5 is the main intermetallic compound between the Sn-based solder and Cu substrate. And the orientation of Cu6Sn5 is one of the key factors affecting its electrical, thermal, and mechanical properties. Besides, under bump metallization may only contain one grain in a limit case due to the decrease of the solder joint. Therefore, the orientation-preferred Cu6Sn5 on Cu single crystal attracts a ...Show More

We propose a double diffusion model adapted to the granular structure of polysilicon and to the effects of high concentrations. This model takes account of the temporal and thermal changes of the morphological structure of polysilicon, by the grains growing in size, during the thermal post-implantation treatment. In addition, it combines the effects of the trapping and the segregation of dopant to...Show More
We utilized bi-crystals with an artificially designed grain boundary configuration as a seed for floating-zone growth of multicrystalline Si (mc-Si) in order to clarify the impact of the initial grain boundary configuration on the crystal growth. Intentionally introduced large tilt deviation from Sigma3 was found to lead to appearance of new crystal grains accompanied by spontaneous modification o...Show More
