Como consequência disso, a população de idosos aumentou consideravelmente e com isso, doenças relacionadas à idade como osteoporose levam o governo a ter que gastar consideráveis quantias em próteses ortopédicas. Há também uma grande demanda devido aos acidentes de trânsito. Os materiais metálicos mais usados na manufatura de próteses são divididos em três grupos: aços inoxidáveis, ligas a base de Co e ligas a base de Ti. Dentre estes três grupos, os biomateriais mais utilizados são aqueles a base de Ti, pois apresentam excelente biocompatibilidade e elevada resistência à corrosão. A liga de Ti mais utilizada para aplicações biológicas é a liga Ti-6Al-4V, porém alguns estudos associam o V a efeitos citotóxicos e reações adversas em tecidos, enquanto o Al tem sido associado com desordens neurológicas. Para sanar este problema, novas ligas de Ti que apresentam em sua composição elementos como Nb, Ta, Zr, Fe e Mo estão sendo pesquisadas e o desenvolvimento de novas ligas de Ti contendo Nb para aplicação ortopédica é um tema de grande importância social e tecnológica, pois o Nb é um elemento não tóxico e não alergênico, possui elevada biocompatibilidade e tem o Brasil como seu maior produtor, daí a importância de desenvolvimento de ciência e tecnologia utilizando tal material. A presença de elementos intersticiais (O, C, N e H) altera de significativamente as propriedades mecânicas da liga, principalmente suas propriedades elásticas, causando endurecimento ou enfraquecimento da liga. As medidas de espectroscopia mecânica são uma ferramenta poderosa para o estudo da interação destes elementos substitucionais e intersticiais com os elementos que compõem a liga.

As a result, the elderly population has increased considerably and thus age-related disease such as osteoporosis lead the government to spend considerable sums of money with orthopedic prostheses. There is also a great demand for orthopedic prostheses due to accidents. The metallic materials commonly used in the manufacture of prostheses are divided into three groups: stainless steel, Co-based alloys and Ti-based alloys. Among these three groups, the most widely used as a biomaterial are the Ti-based alloys, since they have excellent biocompatibility and high corrosion resistance. The most used Ti-based alloy for biological applications is the Ti-6Al-4V alloy, but some studies associate the V to the cytotoxic effects and adverse reactions in tissues, while Al has been associated with neurological disorders. To solve this problem, new Ti-based alloys that have in their composition elements such as Nb, Ta, Zr, Fe and Mo are being researched. The development of new Ti-based alloys containing Nb for orthopedic application is a topic of great social and technological relevance, as this element is a non-toxic, non allergenic, has high biocompatibility and has Brazil as its biggest producer, hence the importance of development of science and technology using this material. The presence of interstitial elements (O, C, N and H) changes significantly the mechanical properties of the alloy, particularly its elastic properties, causing hardening or softening of the alloy. Mechanical spectroscopy measurements represent a powerful tool for studying the interaction of substitutional and interstitial elements with the metal matrix. This work presents the effect of interstitial oxygen in solid solution in some mechanical properties and biocompatibility of two alloys of the Ti-Nb system...

Estudo de multi-espectro de relaxação anelástica devido a defeitos intersticiais em ligas de Nb-Zr e Nb-Ti. / Study of the anelastic relaxation multi-spectra due to interstitial deffects in Nb-Zr and Nb-Ti alloys.

Carlos Roberto Grandini 06 May 1988 (has links)
As medidas de atrito interno tem sido muito usadas para o estudo de relaxações anelásticas devido à intersticiais em metais ou ligas metálicas. Estudou-se o comportamento de ligas de Nb-Zr dopadas com Oxigênio e ligas de Nb-Ti dopadas com Oxigênio e Nitrogênio, através de medidas simultâneas de atrito interno (energia dissipada por oscilação do Pêndulo de Torção) e da dispersão dos valores reativos da constante elástica apropriada. No sistema Nb-Zr-O, o multi espectro de relaxação em função da temperatura foi analisado e foram encontrados processos de relaxação devido à reorientação induzida por tensão de um, dois e três átomos de Oxigênio em torno de um átomo de Nióbio e um átomo de Oxigênio em torno de um átomo de Zircônio. No sistema NB-Ti-O-N, foram encontrados processos de relaxação devido à reorientação induzida por tensão de um e dois átomos de Oxigênio em torno de um átomo de Nióbio e um átomo de Titânio, respectivamente; um átomo de Nitrogênio em torno de um átomo de Nióbio e um átomo de Titânio, respectivamente. Com a ajuda das relações desenvolvidas por Kramers-Krönig, foi possível prever e checar com precisão cada intensidade de relaxação através das medidas da variação relativa da constante elástica apropriada (dispersão). / Internal friction measurements have been very often used for anelastic relaxation investigation in order to detect the existence of the interstitials in metal or metal alloys. The behavior of the Nb-Zr alloys doped with oxygen and the Nb-Ti alloys doped with oxygen and nitrogen have been studied using internal friction and relative elastic constants measurements obtained simultaneously. For Nb-Zr-O system, the multi-relaxation spectrum has been analyzed and relaxation processes due to the stress-induced ordenaring of one, two or three oxygen atoms around one niobium atom and also one oxygen atom around one zirconium atom went found. For Nb-Ti-O-N system, the multi-relaxation spectrum has been analyzed and relaxation processes due to the stress-induced ordenaring of one and two oxygen atoms around one niobium and titanium atoms respectively and one nitrogem atom around one niobium and titanium atoms respectively. With aid of Kramers-Krönig relations, it was possible to preview and check with good accuracy each of relaxation measurements.

Dopant behavior in complex semiconductor systems

Kong, Ning 21 June 2010 (has links)
As the size of modern transistors is continuously scaled down, challenges rise in almost every component of a silicon device. Formation of ultra shallow junction (USJ) with high activation level is particularly important for suppressing short channel effects. However, the formation of low resistance USJ is made difficult by dopant Transient Enhanced Diffusion (TED) and clustering-induced deactivation. In this work, we proposed a novel point defect engineering solution to address the arsenic TED challenge. By overlapping arsenic doped region with silicon interstitials and vacancies, we observed enhanced and retarded arsenic diffusion upon anneal, respectively. We explain this phenomenon by arsenic interstitial diffusion mechanism. In addition, we implemented this interstitial-based mechanism into a kinetic Monte Carlo (kMC) simulator. The key role of interstitials in arsenic TED is confirmed. And we demonstrated that the simulator has an improved prediction capability for arsenic TED and deactivation. As a long time unsolved process challenge, arsenic segregation at SiO₂/Si interface was investigated using density functional theory (DFT) calculation. The segregation-induced arsenic dose loss not only increases resistance but also may induce interface states. We identified three arsenic complex configurations, [chemical formula] , [chemical formula] and [chemical formula], which are highly stabilized at SiO₂/Si interface due to the unique local bonding environments. Therefore, they could contribute to arsenic segregation as both initial stage precursors and dopant trapping sites. Our calculation indicates that arsenic atoms trapped in such interface complexes are electrically inactive. Finally, the formation and evolution dynamics of these interface arsenic-defect complexes are discussed and kMC models are constructed to describe the segregation effects. A potential problem for the p-type USJ formation is the recently found transient fast boron diffusion during solid phase epitaxial regrowth process. Using DFT calculations and molecular dynamics simulation, we identified an interstitial-based mechanism of fast boron diffusion in amorphous silicon. The activation energy for this diffusion mechanism is in good agreement with experimental results. In addition, this mechanism is consistent with the experimentally reported transient and concentration-dependent features of boron diffusion in amorphous silicon. / text

Studium struktury feromagnetických polovodičů metodami rtg rozptylu / Study of the structure of ferromagnetic semiconductors by x-ray scattering methods

Horák, Lukáš January 2014 (has links)
We studied epitaxial layers of Gallium Manganese Arsenide by various x-ray scattering methods. Since the positions of the Mn dopant in the a host GaAs lattice are crucial for magnetic properties of this material, we focused mainly on a development of the laboratory diffraction method capable to identify Mn in particular crystallographic positions. From the measured diffracted intensity distributed along Crystal Truncation Rods, it is possible deduce the density of Mn interstitials in two non-equivalent crystallographic positions. It is possible to decrease the interstitial Mn density by annealing. We demonstrated our method on severally annealed epitaxial layer. The depth profile of interstitial density was determined after each annealing. The annealing process was simulated by the solving of the Drift- Diffusion equations. From the comparison with the experimentally determined interstitial densities, we estimated the diffusivity of Mn interstitials in the GaAs lattice. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)
