“Structure and stability of Fe2 phases from density-functional theory calculations”. Fang CM, van Huis MA, Zandbergen HW, Scripta materialia 63, 418 (2010). http://doi.org/10.1016/j.scriptamat.2010.04.042
Abstract: Fe(2)C plays a crucial role in the precipitation of iron carbides. Jack's structural models for epsilon-Fe(2)C, and non-stoichiometric epsilon-Fe(2.4)C, are analyzed using first-principles calculations. Several new configurations of epsilon-Fe(2)C with even higher stability are found. We show how epsilon-Fe(2)C transforms into eta-Fe(2)C, and address the structural relationships with the chi-Fe(5)C(2), theta-Fe(3)C and Fe(7)C(3) phases. The relative occurrence of these phases in steel, as well as their probable evolution during tempering of quenched steels, is discussed. (C) 2010 Acta Materialia Inc. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

“Texture-dependent twin formation in nanocrystalline thin Pd films”. Wang B, Idrissi H, Shi H, Colla MS, Michotte S, Raskin JP, Pardoen T, Schryvers D, Scripta materialia 66, 866 (2012). http://doi.org/10.1016/j.scriptamat.2012.01.038
Abstract: Nanocrystalline Pd films were produced by electron-beam evaporation and sputter deposition. The electron-beam-evaporated films reveal randomly oriented nanograins with a relatively high density of growth twins, unexpected in view of the high stacking fault energy of Pd. In contrast, sputter-deposited films show a clear 〈1 1 1〉 crystallographic textured nanostructure without twins. These results provide insightful information to guide the generation of microstructures with enhanced strength/ductility balance in high stacking fault energy nanocrystalline metallic thin films.

“Transmission electron microscopy investigation of microstructures in low-hysteresis alloys with special lattice parameters”. Delville R, Schryvers D, Zhang Z, James RD, Scripta materialia 60, 293 (2009). http://doi.org/10.1016/j.scriptamat.2008.10.025
Abstract: A sharp drop in hysteresis is observed for shape memory alloys satisfying the compatibility condition between austenite and martensite, i.e. ë2 = 1, where ë2 is the middle eigenvalue of the transformation strain matrix. The present work investigates the evolution of microstructure by transmission electron microscopy as the composition of the Ti50Ni50−xPdx system is systemically tuned to achieve the condition ë2 = 1. Changes in morphology, twinning density and twinning modes are reported along with twinless martensite and exact austenitemartensite interfaces.

“Orientation relationship of the austenite-to-ferrite transformation in austenitic stainless steels due to dissolution corrosion in contact with liquid Pb-Bi eutectic”. Charalampopoulou E, Cautaerts N, Van der Donck T, Schryvers D, Lambrinou K, Delville R, Scripta materialia 167, 66 (2019). http://doi.org/10.1016/J.SCRIPTAMAT.2019.03.035
Abstract: The orientation relationship of an austenite-to-ferrite phase transformation in 316L stainless steels induced by the loss of austenite stabilizers resulting from the steel dissolution corrosion in liquid Pb-Bi eutectic was studied by means of electron backscatter diffraction. The misorientations at the austenite/ferrite interface were compared to the prevailing orientation relationship models in steels. The Pitsch orientation relationship model was found to be predominant, which is unusual for austenite-to-ferrite bulk transformations in steels. The nature of this particular transformation, which involves loss of steel alloying elements and the presence of an interfacial liquid metal layer, is discussed to explain this finding.

“Anomalous stress-strain behavior of NiTi shape memory alloy close to the border of superelastic window”. Wang X, Yao X, Schryvers D, Verlinden B, Wang G, Zhao G, Van Humbeeck J, Kustov S, Scripta Materialia 204, 114135 (2021). http://doi.org/10.1016/J.SCRIPTAMAT.2021.114135
Abstract: In this work, we report an anomalous phenomenon on superelastic cycling of NiTi shape memory alloys when deforming at the temperature close to the border of superelastic window. New unexpected effects are found-(i) critical stress for inducing martensite transformation during the second loading cycle is higher than that of the first cycle; ( ii ) the plateau stress of the second cycle decreases to the original level when the strain overcomes the limit of the first cycle; ( iii ) transition from good superelasticity in the first cycle to fully irreversible strain in the second. We propose that defects generated during the first superelastic cycle close to the border of superelastic window impede following stress-induced martensitic transformations, leading to the increase of critical stress beyond yield stress of the B2 matrix, and thus functional fatigue of NiTi alloys.

“On the formation of antiphase boundaries in Fe₄Al₁₃, intermetallics during a high temperature treatment”. Ding L, Sapanathan T, Schryvers D, Simar A, Idrissi H, Scripta materialia 215, 114726 (2022). http://doi.org/10.1016/J.SCRIPTAMAT.2022.114726
Abstract: In this paper, we report atomic scale observations and formation mechanisms of a high-density of antiphase boundaries (APBs) within an ultra-fine-grained Fe4Al13 intermetallic layer at an Al/steel interface after a heat treatment at 596 degrees C. The results reveal that the APBs are formed by nucleation and the glide of partial dislocations with Burgers vector of b/3[010] (b = 12.47 angstrom). The intensive activation of APBs locally transforms the Fe4Al13 structure from the quasicrystal approximant structure to a quasicrystal. Very few stacking faults and nanotwins are observed indicating that the formation of planar defects is mainly driven by this transformation. This new insight on the formation of high density of APBs could possibly lead to an improvement in toughness by increasing the strength/ductility balance of this intermetallic.

“Discovery of core-shell quasicrystalline particles”. Yang T, Kong Y, Du Y, Li K, Schryvers D, Scripta materialia 222, 115040 (2023). http://doi.org/10.1016/J.SCRIPTAMAT.2022.115040
Abstract: Submicron-sized quasicrystalline particles were obtained in an Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy produced by traditional melting. These particles consist of an Al-Fe-Ni core and a Mg-Cu-Zn shell and were found to be stable and embedded randomly in the Al matrix. The diffraction patterns of these core-shell particles reveal a decagonal core and an icosahedral shell with, respectively, ten- and five-fold axes aligned. High resolution scanning transmission electron microscopy of the Mg-Cu-Zn shell confirms the five-fold symmetry atomic arrangement and the icosahedral structure. It can therefore be concluded that Fe and Ni impurities play an important role in mediating the formation of such an unusual ternary core-shell quasicrystalline particle. These findings provide some novel insights in the formation of quasicrystals in traditional industrial Al alloys.
