Metals And Alloys: Phase Separation and Defect Agglomeration

  • Chapter
Modern Aspects of Small-Angle Scattering

Part of the book series: Nato ASI Series ((ASIC,volume 451))

Abstract

Small-angle scattering provides the spatial and temporal resolution necessary to study the kinetics and morphology of phase separation from very early to rather advanced stages. Some characteristic results on the decomposition of alloys, e.g. Au-Pt, Ni-Al, Ni-Ti, Ni-Al-Mo, are discussed in the light of current theoretical concepts of nucleation and growth, spinodal decomposition, power law scattering and scaling, and elastic interaction of precipitates. Vacancy agglomerates introduced by quenching or plastic deformation may also be revealed, as illustrated by measurements on quenched NiAl and fatigued Cu single crystals.

Note: This paper is a slightly reduced version of the paper Phase separation and defects studied by scattering techniques, Physica Scripta 48, 1993, copyright Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences.
