The plasticity of diamondBrookes, Jill January 1992 (has links)
Aspects of the crystal structure of diamond, and its associated defects, have been considered with reference to the effect such characteristics might have on its mechanical properties. Also, established resolved shear stress models, which account for anisotropy in conventional Knoop indentation hardness of all single crystals, have been reviewed. Particular attention has been given to the role of microplasticity and the nature of crack formation in the deformed zone formed beneath the indenter. It is then shown that a similar approach can be applied to the case where a cone, made from a softer material, replaces the conventional rigid indenter. By using different materials covering a range of hardness, impressions can be formed beneath which there is a controlled density and depth of dislocations. In this work, the 'soft' indenter technique has been extended to high temperatures and applied to study the plasticity of various types of natural and synthetic diamond. Consequently, the effect of temperature on the critical resolved shear stress of synthetic type Ib, and natural type Ia and type IIa has been established. Above a critical threshold temperature for the onset of plasticity, time dependent growth of the impression volume occurs whilst the mean contact pressure is decreasing. It is shown that geometrical similarity, i.e. the ratio of the impression size to dislocated volume, is maintained whilst the critical mean pressure continues to be exceeded during this process of 'impression creep'. Activation energies of about 2.9 eV and 1.2 eV were determined, from rates of volume change, for natural (both type I and II) and synthetic type Ib respectively. Whilst no significant differences were observed between 98.9% 12C (natural abundance) and 99.9% 12C (isotopically enriched) synthetic diamonds, their behaviour was most like that of a type IIb diamond. Finally, by studying type la diamonds with a nitrogen concentration ranging from 14 - 750 ppm, evidence is obtained which supports the suggestion that this element reduces the intrinsic resistance to dislocation movement and encourages the initiation of cracks in the diamond structure.

Formation and properties of alumina coatingsSchneider, Jochen Michael January 1997 (has links)
Investigations concerning the microstructure and mechanical properties, composition and chemical bonding of alumina coatings have been performed. Alumina coatings have been deposited by both ionized reactive magnetron sputtering (IMS) and conventional reactive magnetron sputtering (CMS) in an argon/oxygen discharge onto stainless steel coated silicon substrates. X-ray diffraction (XRD) was used for the phase analysis, and nanoindentation was used to evaluate the mechanical properties. Substrate temperature during deposition was <500°C, which is the technologically interesting temperature range to coat temperature sensitive substrates such as tool steels. Formation of the x-phase was observed at 472°C. At substrate temperatures <472°C evidence for the formation of the amorphous alumina phase was found. Films containing a mixture of K and θ-alumina phases was grown at 430°C. The crystalline film hardness was 22+-1 GPa, which is equivalent to values reported for alumina films deposited by Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD). Films grown at the same temperature by conventional magnetron sputtering were X-ray amorphous, and the hardness was found to be strong function of the substrate temperature. Furthermore, a novel, very high rate reactive magnetron sputtering deposition process for alumina hard coatings at substrate temperature ≤250°C has been developed. Utilizing pulsed D.C. power to sputter A1+A1Ox off the target surface and partial pressure control of the reactive gas to maintain a certain partial pressure value (accuracy of better than 0.005 mTorr), fully dense, transparent alumina coatings could be produced at 76% of the metal deposition rate. The coatings have an elastic modulus of,140 GPa, a hardness of 12 GPa, a chemical composition close to stoichiometric, and a refractive index of 1.65.
