Generating gradient germanium nanostructures by shock-induced amorphization and crystallization

Journal Article Zhao, Shiteng ; Kad, Bimal ; Wehrenberg, Christopher E. ; ... - Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America

Gradient nanostructures are attracting considerable interest due to their potential to obtain superior structural and functional properties of materials. Applying powerful laser-driven shocks (stresses of up to one-third million atmospheres, or 33 gigapascals) to germanium, we report here a complex gradient nanostructure consisting of, near the surface, nanocrystals with high density of nanotwins. Beyond there, the structure exhibits arrays of amorphous bands which are preceded by planar defects such as stacking faults generated by partial dislocations. At a lower shock stress, the surface region of the recovered target is completely amorphous. We propose that germanium undergoes amorphization above a thresholdmore »« less

Amorphization and nanocrystallization of silcon under shock compression

Journal Article Zhao, S. ; Hahn, E. N. ; Kad, B. ; ... - Acta Materialia

In collaboration with LLNL and Caltech, experiments to test the strain rate and texture dependence of spall strength in tantalum were conducted at Janus in the Jupiter Laser Facility at LLNL from June-July 2014. Part of the laser shots were dedicated to reproducing data from the last set of spall experiments in 2012 and the rest of the laser shots were dedicated to produce new science on spall strength. Experiments were also conducted at the Omega Facility (LLE, U. of Rochester). The limits of spall strength were tested by increasing the strain rate and changing the texture of the samples.more »« less

Deformation and failure in extreme regimes by high-energy pulsed lasers: A review

Journal Article Remington, Tane P. ; Remington, Bruce A. ; Hahn, Eric N. ; ... - Materials Science and Engineering. A, Structural Materials: Properties, Microstructure and Processing

The use of high-power pulsed lasers to probe the response of materials at pressures of hundreds of GPa up to several TPa, time durations of nanoseconds, and strain rates of 10⁶–10^1° s^-1 is revealing novel mechanisms of plastic deformation, phase transformations, and even amorphization. This unique experimental tool, aided by advanced diagnostics, analysis, and characterization, allows us to explore these new regimes that simulate those encountered in the interiors of planets. Fundamental Materials Science questions such as dislocation velocity regimes, the transition between thermally-activated and phonon drag regimes, the slip-twinning transition, the ultimate tensile strength of metals, the dislocation mechanismsmore »« less

Pressure and shear-induced amorphization of silicon

Journal Article Zhao, S. ; Kad, B. ; Hahn, E. N. ; ... - Extreme Mechanics Letters

We report that high-power, pulsed, laser-driven shock compression of monocrystalline silicon produces directional amorphization, revealed by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy and confirmed by molecular dynamics simulations. At the lowest energy level experiment, generating a pressure of ~4 GPa, silicon reacts elastically. At intermediate energy levels (P~11 and 22 GPa), amorphization is observed both at the surface and directionally, along planes making angles close to the maximum shear. At the highest laser energy level explored here, (P_peak ~28 GPa), the recovered sample shows a nanocrystalline microstructure near the surface. This nanocrystalline structure forms by crystallization from the amorphous phase and ismore »« less
