Thermal Cycling and Growth of the Martensite Studied by NMR in an Ag-Cd Alloy
نویسندگان
چکیده
l13Cd NMR measurements in two Ag-Cd samples cycled between room temperature and temperatures below M, are presented. The growth curve of the martensite on cooling presents a discontinuity in the cycling temperature region. It is shown that the method of analysis of the NMR data recently developed by us [Phys.Rev.B 46, 10563 (1992)], allows to detect subtle memory effects and the absolute determination of the fraction of the martensite in thermoelastic equilibrium with the parent phase at fuced temperature.

High-Reliability Low-Ag-Content Sn-Ag-Cu Solder Joints for Electronics Applications
Sn-Ag-Cu (SAC) alloy is currently recognized as the standard lead-free solder alloy for packaging of interconnects in the electronics industry, and highAg-content SAC alloys are the most popular choice. However, this choice has been encumbered by the fragility of the solder joints that has been observed in drop testing as well as the high cost of the Ag itself. Therefore, low-Ag-content SAC all...
متن کاملStudy of the effects of lower bainite volume fraction on tensile and impact properties of D6AC medium carbon low alloy ultrahigh strength steel
The effects of lower bainite volume fraction on tensile and impact properties of D6AC ultrahigh strength steel were studied in the current work. To obtain mixed microstructures containing martensite and different volume fractions of the lower bainite, specimens were austenitized at 910° C, then quenched in a salt bath of 330°C for different holding times, finally quenched in oil. In order to ob...

Thin-film samples of Ni-Ti-Zr shape memory alloys were studied by combinatorial nanocalorimetry to determine the effects of high-temperature (900°C) heat treatments and lowtemperature (450°C) thermal cycling on the characteristics of the martensite transformation. The response of the samples to heat treatments depends on composition and is controlled by a precipitation mechanism. Two precipitat...
