The field-induced magnetic anisotropy (K-u) and hyperfine interactions have been investigated for nanocrystalline Febal.B14 similar to 14.8SixCu1.5 (x = 0, 1, 2 and 4) alloys. Fe-57 Mossbauer spectroscopy was used to quantify the Si contents and volume fractions of the amorphous and bcc-Fe(Si) phases after nanocrystallisation. This information was then used to estimate the local K-u contribution from the bcc-Fe(Si) phase. The bulk K-u value of these nanocrystalline alloys showed an increase from 40 +/- 5 J/m(3) to 69 +/- 5 J/m(3) with increasing Si content from 0 to 4 at%. The local K-u of the bcc-Fe(Si) phase was found to increase in line with Si content, as predicted by the well-known directional pair ordering model and showed a large value of 172 +/- 14 J/m(3) for a local Si content of around 6 at%. The addition of Si to Fe-rich nanocrystalline alloys is widely perceived as an effective means for improving magnetic softness. However, the findings of this study imply that small additions of Si to Fe-rich nanocrystalline alloys may result in undesirable effects if the crystalline volume fraction is especially large.

Yun Li, Zheng Chen, Jie Wang, Teng li, Mingliang Tian, Julie Karel, Kiyonori Suzuki

Summary: Abnormal magneto-transport properties, including thickness-dependent magnetoresistance and Hall effect, are found in CST nanoflakes. The sign reversal of magnetoresistance ratio and the transformation of Hall effect behavior are attributed to the variation of spin correlation with thickness in CST. These findings provide a basis for spintronics device design and offer new insights into the relationship between sample thickness, transport properties, and spin correlation in vdW ferromagnets.

Highly efficiency blue emissive from Bi3+ions in zero-dimensional organic bismuth halide for white LED applications

Jun'an Lai, Daofu Wu, Peng He, Kang An, Yijia Wang, Peng Feng, WeiWei Chen, Zixian Wang, Linfeng Guo, Xiaosheng Tang

Summary: Zero-dimensional organic-inorganic metal halides (OMHs) are gaining attention in the fabrication of light-emitting diodes due to their broad emission band and high photoluminescence quantum yield. This work synthesized a zero-dimensional organic tetraphenylphosphonium bismuth chloride (TBC) that showed efficient blue light emission, with the emission mechanism attributed to the transition of Bi3+ ions. White light-emitting diodes (WLEDs) were fabricated using TBC, along with green-emitting and red-emitting single crystals, achieving single-component white emissions. These findings demonstrate the different emission mechanism of ns2 ions-based OMHs and highlight the potential of bismuth-based OMHs in WLEDs applications.

Study on the wear resistance and mechanism of AlCrCuFe2NiTix high-entropy surfacing alloys

Xuewei Liang, Yunhai Su, Taisen Yang, Zhiyong Dai, Yingdi Wang, Xingping Yong

Summary: The revolutionary design concept of high-entropy alloys has brought new opportunities and challenges to the development of advanced metal materials. In this work, AlCrCuFe2NiTix high-entropy flux cored wires were prepared by combining the design idea of a high-entropy alloy with the characteristics of flux cored wire. AlCr-CuFe2NiTix high-entropy surfacing alloys were prepared using gas metal arc welding technology. The wear properties of the alloys were analyzed, and the phase composition, microstructure, strengthening mechanism, and wear mechanism were discussed. The results show that the alloys exhibit a dendritic microstructure with BCC/B2 + FCC phases. Increasing Ti content leads to the precipitation of Laves phase. The alloys show improved microhardness and wear resistance due to the precipitation of coherent B2 and Laves phases. However, excessive Ti addition results in the increase of Laves phase and reduced wear resistance of the alloys.

Micro-alloying effects of Ta and B on nano-oxides and grain boundaries in 13CrWTi-ODS ferritic alloys

Jianning Zhang, Jing Li, Yiren Wang, Xiaodong Mao, Yong Jiang

Summary: We conducted a study on the formation of ultra-fine Y-Ti-Ta-O nano-oxides in Ta+B micro-alloyed 13CrWTi-ODS alloys using electron microscopy and first-principles calculations. The Y-Ti-Ta-O nano-oxides were found to be mainly Y2(Ti,Ta)2O7, with an average size of 7 nm and a number density of 6.8 x 1023 m-3. Excess boron was found to enhance the adhesion of some low-sigma grain boundaries but weaken the Fe/Y2Ti2O7 interface, while excess tantalum enhanced the Fe/Y2Ti2O7 interface but caused serious degradation of grain boundaries.
