Xenon Focused Ion Beam in the Shape Memory Alloys Investigation – The Case of NiTi and CoNiAl
نویسندگان
چکیده
The presented article reviews the first experiences with the xenon plasma focused ion beam (FIB) in the scanning electron microscope (SEM) applied on the investigations of shape memory alloys (SMAs). The SMA are the focus of investigation in our department for many years and these investigated alloys are examples of material prepared by novel spark plasma sintering method (NiTi) and traditional metallurgical method (CoNiAl). Thus apart of basic characterization it also facilitates the comparison between two different methods of preparation.
