  1. 6. High-resolution characterization of TiN diffusion barrier layers

    Författare :Marlene Mühlbacher; Lars Hultman; Christian Mitterer; Lars Johnson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Diffusion; TiN; Microstructure; Transmission electron microscopy; TEM; Atom probe tomography; APT;

    Sammanfattning : Titanium nitride (TiN) films are widely applied as diffusion barrier layers in microelectronic devices. The continued miniaturization of such devices not only poses new challenges to material systems design, but also puts high demands on characterization techniques. LÄS MER

  3. 7. Evolution of microstructure and nanoscale chemistry of Zircaloy-2-type alloys during nuclear reactor operation

    Författare :Johan Eriksson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Zircaloy-2; Nuclear fuel cladding; Atom probe tomography; Zirconium alloys; Clustering; Dislocation loops; Radiation effects; Boiling water reactor;

    Sammanfattning : Zirconium alloys are used as fuel cladding tubes in nuclear reactors. During reactor operation, these alloys are degraded by corrosion, hydrogen pickup (HPU), and radiation-induced growth, processes influenced by the alloying elements. LÄS MER

  4. 8. Radiation Induced Precipitation in Reactor Pressure Vessel Steel Welds

    Författare :Kristina Lindgren; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; precipitation; irradiation damage; low alloy steel; reactor pressure vessel; atom probe tomography;

    Sammanfattning : Radiation induced clustering and precipitation affect the mechanical properties of the reactor pressure vessel (RPV) of a nuclear power plant, i.e. the material becomes embritteled. The combination of low Cu (0. LÄS MER

  5. 9. Microstructural investigation of CVD TiAlN, TiN and WN coatings

    Författare :Ren Qiu; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEM; XEDS; TiN; SEM; APT; TiAlN; coating growth; EBSD; WN; CVD;

    Sammanfattning : High speed machining of workpiece materials puts extreme thermal and pressure loads onto the cutting tool inserts, which thus must possess both high hardness and good toughness. Nowadays, most cutting tools are made of cemented carbide substrates that are coated with wear-resistant coatings. LÄS MER

  7. 10. Effects of Irradiation and Thermal Ageing on the Nanoscale Chemistry of Steel Welds

    Författare :Kristina Lindgren; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; spinodal decomposition; thermal ageing; low alloy steel; reactor pressure vessel; irradiation damage; atom probe tomography; core barrel; clustering;

    Sammanfattning : Structural materials of nuclear power plants degrade during operation due to thermal ageing and irradiation from the reactor core. Effects on the materials are an increase in hardness and tensile strength, and a decrease in ductility and fracture toughness, i. e. embrittlement. LÄS MER
