Crossover aluminium alloys have recently been introduced as a new class of coarse-grained age-hardenable alloys. Here, we study the evolution of precipitation of the T-phase — -phase — in a 5xxx/7xxx crossover alloy with coarse- and ultrafined microstructures. Both alloys were examined using differential scanning calorimetry, X-ray diffraction and in situ transmission electron microscopy. The ultrafine-grained alloy revealed significant different and accelerated precipitation behaviour due to grain boundaries acting as fast diffusion paths. Additionally, the ultrafine-grained alloy revealed high resistance to grain growth upon heating, an effect primarily attributed to inter-granular precipitation synergistically with trans-granular precipitation of T-phase. GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT IMPACT STATEMENT The effect of coarse and ultrafine grains on the T-phase precipitation behaviour in novel aluminium crossover alloys was investigated. Thermal stability of ultrafine grains was achieved through controlled T-phase precipitation.
交叉铝合金是最近推出的一类新型粗晶粒时效硬化合金。在这里,我们研究了具有粗细和超细微观结构的 5xxx/7xxx 交叉合金中 T 相沉淀的演变过程。这两种合金均采用差示扫描量热法、X 射线衍射法和原位透射电子显微镜进行检测。由于晶界是快速扩散通道,超细晶粒合金显示出明显不同的加速析出行为。此外,超细晶粒合金在加热时具有很强的抗晶粒长大能力,这种效应主要归因于晶粒间析出与 T 相的跨晶粒析出的协同作用。图表说明 影响声明 研究了粗晶粒和超细晶粒对新型铝交叉合金中 T 相析出行为的影响。通过控制 T 相沉淀实现了超细晶粒的热稳定性。

Through atomistic simulations, we uncover the dynamic properties of the Cantor alloy under shock-loading conditions and characterize its equation-of-state over a wide range of densities and pressures along with spall strength at ultra-high strain rates. Simulation results reveal the role of local phase transformations during the development of the shock wave on the alloy's high spall strength. The simulated shock Hugoniot results are in remarkable agreement with experimental data, validating the predictability of the model. These mechanistic insights along with the quantification of dynamical properties can drive further advancements in various applications of this class of alloys under extreme environments.

Aluminum scandium nitride (AlScN) has been receiving increasing interest for radio frequency microelectromechanical systems because of their higher achievable bandwidths owing to the larger piezoelectric response of AlScN compared to AlN. However, alloying scandium (Sc) with aluminum nitride (AlN) significantly lowers the thermal conductivity of AlScN due to phonon alloy scattering. Self-heating in AlScN devices potentially limits power handling, constrains the maximum transmission rate, and ultimately leads to thermal failure. We grew plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy (PAMBE) AlScN on AlN-Al2O3 and GaN-Al2O3 substrates, and compared the cross-plane thermal conductivity to current work on AlScN grown on Si substrates.

The deformation of a single-crystal Fe48Mn32Co10Cr10 alloy is captured in situ at the atomic scale. The results show that full and partial dislocations, along with deformation twins, are involved in the deformation process. Partial dislocation activities result in the formation of nanotwins, high-density coherent twin boundaries, and incoherent twin boundaries. Full dislocations interact with the coherent/incoherent twin boundaries, and partial dislocations, thereby producing high strength and remarkable strain hardening. The observed high activity of full dislocations can be attributed to the inhomogeneous distribution of solid solution atoms in the alloy.
