Thus, the composite methodologyfor lattice strain measurements inmechanically becomes mechanically more efficient as a higher portion of loaded samples. As there is only limited experience with the applied load is carried by the reinforcingphase.However, this technique and as the methods to evaluate the raw data with increasing stress in the reinforcement, that phase may are not standardized, the present article examines in detail fracture or debond from the matrix, thus reducing the load the experimental procedures and data evaluation techniques. born by the reinforcement and the overall load-bearing The major sources of experimental error are identified and capacity of the composite, and also often leading to macroappropriatemeasures to minimize these errors are discussed. scopic failure of the composite. The second goal of the present study is to compare, on Experimental measurement of load partitioning between Cu-Mo composites from the same origin, the phase strain the individual phases of MMCs can thus give a wealth of measured by neutron diffraction (as reported by Daymond information on themicromechanicalevolutionof composites et al.) and by synchrotron X-ray diffraction (as reported during deformation.

Effect of Mo Addition on Nanostructured Ni50Al50 Intermetallic Compound Synthesized by Mechanical Alloying

The mechanical alloying process was used to synthesize the Ni50Al50−xMox nanocrystalline intermetallic compound using pure Ni and Al elemental powder. This process was carried out in the presence of various Mo contents as a micro-alloying element for various milling times. Structural changes of powder particles during mechanical alloying were studied by X-ray diffractometry (XRD) and scanning e...

Recrystallization of Cu(In,Ga)Se2 thin films studied by X-ray diffraction

A recrystallization is essential for the synthesis of highest quality Cu(In,Ga)Se2 (CIGSe) thin films for solar cell applications. Here we present a real-time study of the recrystallization of CIGSe thin films. We trigger the recrystallization by allowing diffusion of Cu into a Cu-poor CIGSe film and use synchrotron-based energy-dispersive X-ray diffraction to monitor this transition in real ti...

Anisotropic strains and magnetoresistance of La0.7Ca0.3MnO3

Thin films of perovskite manganite La0.7Ca0.3MnO3 were grown epitaxially on SrTiO3(100), MgO(100) and LaAlO3(100) substrates by the pulsed laser deposition method. Microscopic structures of these thin film samples as well as a bulk sample were fully determined by x-ray diffraction measurements. The unit cells of the three films have different shapes, i.e., contracted tetragonal, cubic, and elon...
