Title: Locality and rapidity of the ultra-large elastic deformation of Nb nanowires in a NiTi phase-transforming matrix

Abstract

This study investigated the elastic deformation behaviour of Nb nanowires embedded in a NiTi matrix. The Nb nanowires exhibited an ultra-large elastic deformation, which is found to be dictated by the martensitic transformation of the NiTi matrix, thus exhibiting unique characteristics of locality and rapidity. These are in clear contrast to our conventional observation of elastic deformations of crystalline solids, which is a homogeneous lattice distortion with a strain rate controlled by the applied strain. The Nb nanowires are also found to exhibit elastic-plastic deformation accompanying the martensitic transformation of the NiTi matrix in the case when the transformation strain of the matrix over-matches the elastic strain limit of the nanowires, or exhibit only elastic deformation in the case of under-matching. Such insight provides an important opportunity for elastic strain engineering and composite design.

Anomalous expansion of Nb nanowires in a NiTi matrix under high pressure

Journal Article Yu, Cun ; Ren, Yang ; Cui, Lishan ; ... - Applied Physics Letters

Under high pressure, materials usually shrink during compression as described by an equation of state. Here, we present the anomalous volume expansion behavior of a one-dimensional Nb nanowire embedded in a NiTi transforming matrix, while the matrix undergoes a pressure-induced martensitic transformation. The Nb volume expansion depends on the NiTi transition pressure range from the matrix, which is controlled by the shear strain induced by different pressure transmitting media. The transformation-induced interfacial stresses between Nb and NiTi may play a major role in this anomaly. In conclusion, our discovery sheds new light on the nano-interfacial effect on mechanical anomalies inmore »« less

Deformation behavior of Nb nanowires in TiNiCu shape memory alloy matrix

Journal Article Jiang, Daqiang ; Liu, Yinong ; Yu, Cun ; ... - Materials Science and Engineering. A, Structural Materials: Properties, Microstructure and Processing

An in-situ nanowire Nb/TiNiCu composite is fabricated based on the concept of strain under-matching between a phase transforming matrix and high strength nanomaterials. The deformation behavior of the Nb nanowire was investigated by means of in-situ synchrotron X-ray diffraction when the TiNiCu matrix underwent different deformation modes. The maximum lattice strain of the Nb nanowires was about 5% when the matrix deformed via martensitic transformation or 1% when deforming plastically by dislocation slip. As a result, the Nb nanowires showed a lattice strain of 3.5% when the matrix deformed in the mixed mode of plastic deformation and martensitic transformation, whichmore »« less

Dual Phase Synergy Enabled Large Elastic Strains of Nanoinclusions in a Dislocation Slip Matrix Composite

Journal Article Zhang, Junsong ; Hao, Shijie ; Jiang, Daqiang ; ... - Nano Letters

Freestanding nanomaterials (such as nanowires, nanoribbons and nanotubes) are known to exhibit ultra-large elastic strains and ultra-high strengths. However, harnessing their superior intrinsic mechanical properties in bulk composites has proven to be difficult. A recent breakthrough has overcome this difficulty by using a martensitic phase transforming matrix, in which ultra-large elastic strains approaching the theoretical limit is achieved in Nb nanowires embedded in the matrix. This discovery, whereas breaking a long-standing challenge, still limits our ability of harnessing the exceptional properties of nanomaterials and developing ultrahigh strength bulk materials to a narrow selection of phase transforming alloy matrices.

Achieving ultra-high bearing strength of tungsten nanoribbons in a transforming metal matrix

Journal Article Guo, Fangmin ; Hao, Shijie ; Jiang, Xiaohua ; ... - Journal of Alloys and Compounds

Nanowires (or nanoribbons) were identified as the most potential structural reinforcements for composites due to their ultrahigh strength, but it is difficult to transcribe their ultrahigh strength into the composite. Here, an in-situ W nanoribbbons-NiTi matrix composite was fabricated by mechanical reduction of a W-NiTi ingot, and the micromechanical deformation behavior was studied by in-situ high energy X-ray diffraction during tensile loading-unloading. It is revealed that the large elastic deformation of the W nanoribbons in a NiTi matrix is dictated by and synchronized with the martensitic transformation of the matrix. The bearing strength of the W nanoribbons, up to 11.6more »« less
