Effect of Field-evaporation Rate on Quantitative Atom-probe Analysis
The effects of field-evaporation rate on the quantitative chemical analysis of materials by atom-probe field-ion microscopy are considered. Examples of erroneously high measured values of the Ti concentration in Mo-1.0 at.% Ti and Mo-1.0 at.% Ti-0.08 at.% Zr (TZM) alloys are presented and the cause is shown to have been due to a high field-evaporation rate. The basic arguments used to explain t...
متن کاملAtom-probe Analysis of Zircaloy
Zirconium based alloys in the Zircaloy series have been analysed with atom-probe field-ion microscopy. During specimen preparation an anodic layer is formed, containing about 50% oxygen. In preliminary analyses of the matrix al1 the minor elements Fe, Ni, Cr and O were detected, and it appears possible to determine with the atom-probe whether any particular heat treatment causes matrix depletio...
متن کاملStatistical Analysis of an Atom Probe Study of Iron Chromium
The atom probe was used to study the microstructure of samples of Fe-Cr (32 at%) aged for different periods. The data were expected to reveal evidence of spinodal decomposition, with the wavelength of the sinusoidal fluctuations increasing with aging time. This paper discusses a statistical model for the data. A twostage hierarchical model is used, in which the first stage models the spinodal d...
متن کاملCo-precipitated and collocated carbides and Cu-rich precipitates in a Fe-Cu steel characterized by atom-probe tomography.
The composition of co-precipitated and collocated NbC carbide precipitates, Fe3C iron carbide (cementite), and Cu-rich precipitates are studied experimentally by atom-probe tomography (APT). The Cu-rich precipitates located at a grain boundary (GB) are also studied. The APT results for the carbides are supplemented with computational thermodynamics predictions of composition at thermodynamic eq...
متن کاملAtom Probe Analysis of Solute Clustering above a Miscibility Gap
At temperatures just above a miscibility gap, spatially small but large amplitude solute fluctuations or clusters are predicted. These clusters may be retained in the solution upon quenching to a lower temperature and may influence subsequent decomposition kinetics. A model has been developed which quantitatively predicts the shape of composition histograms as a function of temperature and comp...
