TY - CONF A1 - Darvishi Kamachali, Reza T1 - On the origin of embrittlement in Mn containing and Zn-coated steels N2 - Grain boundary embrittlement in medium-Mn steels and liquid metal embrittlement (LME) in Zn-coated high strength steels are among key challenges on the way of safe application of sustainable steels for automotive industry. Using a novel density-based model for grain boundaries, we reveal that the affinity of a grain boundary to attract Mn and Zn atoms result in a segregation transition accompanied by interfacial structural changes. In case of the Zn, the simulations show that the amount of segregation abruptly increases with decreasing temperature, while the Zn content in the alloy, required for triggering the segregation transition, decreases. The results are discussed in the context of CALPHAD-integrated density-based grain boundary phase diagrams.

Many research initiatives and levels of significance are associated with this term. The Initiative Platform MaterialDigital (PMD), for example, aims to create a material data space filled with semantically linked data. The concept envisages that semantic relationships between the data are described as ontologies and that processing of data takes place via automated data pipelines. Various research projects from all areas of materials science are working on the implementation of this concept based on specific use cases. In the project presented here, the use case is the development of multilayer ferrite inductors as passive microelectronic components. The inductors are fabricated by ceramic multilayer technology and co-firing of metallized tapes of NiCuZn ferrite and a dielectric base material. Investigations focus on the effects of fabrication technology on the permeability of the ferrite. A data pipeline is introduced that automatically processes the unstructured experimental data into structured, machine-readable and semantically linked data. The concrete implementation of the data pipeline and a domain ontology is presented using examples. Challenges and advantages are discussed.

However, building a domain ontology is not a simple task. It requires not only a collaborative effort between ontologists and domain experts, but also the modeling approaches and tools play a key role in the process. Among all approaches, graphical representation of domain ontologies based on standard conceptual modeling languages is widely used because of its intuitiveness and simplicity. Various tools have been developed to realize this approach in an intuitive way, such as Protégé plugins and web visualization tools. The Materials-open-Lab (MatOLab) project, which aims to develop ontologies and workflows in accordance with testing standards for the materials science and engineering domains, adopted a UML (Unified Modeling Language) approach based on the diagrams.net. It is a powerful, popular, open-source graphical editor. In practical case studies, however, many users’ needs could not be met, such as reusing ontology, conversion, and data mapping. Users must switch between different tools to achieve a certain step, and thereby invariably increase learning cost. The lack of validation also leads to incorrect diagrams and results for users who are not familiar with the ontology rules. To address these issues, we designed Ontopanel, a diagrams.net-based plugin that includes a set of pipeline tools for semantic modeling: importing and displaying protégé-like ontologies, converting diagrams to OWL, validating diagrams by OWL rules, and mapping data. It uses diagrams.net as the front-end for method modeling and Django as the back-end for data processing. As a web-based tool, it is very easy to expand its functionality to meet changing practical needs.

To meet the demands of ever-growing markets, the compositional design of new glasses requires full characterization of thermal, mechanical, electric, and optical properties. Particularly, the characterization of optical properties is not only relevant for optical/luminescent applications but is also essential for the tailored design of some medical and dental materials such as restorative resins, implants and prothesis. In this seminar we will introduce the fundaments on the optical properties of materials, with particular focus on glasses, and the techniques to characterize them.

This can become challenging for certain restorations and implants due to the complex optical characteristic of a tooth, which reflects, absorbs, diffuses, transmits, and even emits light. Thus, to get acceptable aesthetic results, favourable shade matching of ceramic restorations and implants should be achieved by strict control of optical response, which translates into a materials design question. Optical response is affected by several factors such as the composition, crystalline content, porosity, additives, grain size and the angle of incidence of light on the dental ceramics. The properties to be characterized are colour (and its stability), translucency, opalescence, refractive index, and fluorescence. Several techniques can be applied for the characterization of these properties and in this presentation, an overview will be given. Moreover, particular emphasis will be given on the capacitation of less familiarized public to UV-Vis absorption and photoluminescence (PLE) spectroscopies that are versatile and widely employed for functional and structural characterization of glasses and glass ceramic materials.

Since the 1960´s with the development of glass lasers, and more recently, within the search for efficient W-LEDs, sensors and solar converters, this class of materials has experienced extreme research progress. In order to tailor a material for such applications, it is very important to understand and characterize optical properties such as refractive index, transmission window, absorption and emission cross sections, quantum yields, etc. These properties can often be tuned by appropriate compositional choice and post-synthesis processing. In this lecture we will discuss the optical properties of glasses and glass ceramics, relevant to that end.

T1 - Optical Real-Time Castability Evaluation for High-Throughput Glass Melting N2 - A novel optical real-time method for evaluating the castability of glass forming melts for laboratory furnaces is presented. The method is based on the analysis of top view images of the melt surface inside the crucible during melting after being subjected to a small mechanical impulse. In this way, the melt surface is excited to oscillate. The difference in contrast between two images taken in quick succession scales with the viscosity, with a larger diffe­rence occurring at lower viscosities. The method is designed as an instrument for the in-line evaluation of the castability for a high-throughput glass melting system as part of the joint project “GlasDigital” in the framework of the German Platform Material Digital initiative but is applicable to other laboratory furnaces as well.

The addition of organic additives by wet route via ceramic slurries offers advantages over dry processing. The organic content can be reduced and a more homogeneous distribution of the additives on the particle surface is achieved. In addition to the measurements of zeta potential and viscosity, sedimentation analysis by optical centrifugation was also tested and successfully used to characterize the ceramic slurries and accurately evaluate of the suitability of different types, amounts, and compositions of organic additives. Spray drying of well-stabilized slurries usually results in mostly hollow granules with a hard shell leading to sintered bodies with defects and reduced strength and density. By purposefully degrading the slurry stability after dispersion of the ceramic powder, the drying behavior of the granules in the spray drying process and thus the granule properties can be influenced. Destabilization of the slurry and thus partial flocculation was quantified by optical centrifugation. Spray drying of the destabilized alumina slurries resulted in "non-hollow" granules without the detrimental hard shell and thus improved granule properties. Further improvement of the granules was achieved by installing ultrasonic atomization in the spray dryer. A narrower granule size distribution was achieved, which had a positive effect on, among other things, the flowability of the granules. Specimens produced from this granules had fewer defects of smaller size, leading to better results for the density and strength of the sintered bodies. The observations made for alumina could be transferred to zirconia and as well to ZTA with 20 wt% zirconia.

However, the oxidation behavior remains an emerging field within the CCA community. The fully heat treated AlMo0.5NbTa0.5TiZr rCCA contains a dual-phase microstructure that resembles the γ/ γ’ pattern of the well-known Ni-base superalloys, however with a continuous Al-Zr-Ti-rich B2 ordered matrix embedding Mo-Nb-Ta-rach bcc precipitates. The question thus arises what is the oxidation behavior of this rCCA alloy? In this study, this question is addressed via in situ and ex situ X-ray diffraction (XRD) in dry and humid air in the 800–1000 °C regime. Electron microscopic investigations complement the findings. In situ synchrotron experiments were carried out at the KMC2 beamline of the Helmholtz Zentrum Berlin (HZB), with a wavelength of 1.5418 Å at 800 and 950 °C under dry and humid (≈ 40% rH, laboratory air) air for 12 h. Scanning and transmission electron microscopy was performed before and after exposure to spatially resolve the scale development ex situ. In general, 12 h exposure led to an oxide scale which internal oxidation reaches several tens of microns, and which is dominated by Zr-, Ti- and Mo-containing oxides although aluminum oxide was also always present. Main differences are observed between temperatures, while the humidity played a lesser role.

Insights into a controlled decomposition of initially homogeneous HEAs are therefore essential. In this study, we combine the recently developed multi-component elastic energy theory with CALPHAD databases to study potentially magnetic FeMnNiCoCu alloy system. In a first approximation, the elastic energy is added to the Gibbs free energy to reconstruct the thermodynamic phase diagrams and consequent phase decompositions. Our results show that depending on the alloy composition and the temperature, Cu-rich and FeCo-rich phases emerge, which lead to the formation of distinct magnetic phases of different extents. The spatial redistribution of elements is studied through Fourier analysis, auto-, and cross-correlation, revealing the contribution of the thermodynamic, kinetic and elastic driving forces throughout this process. These dissembled analysis methods contribute to a more comprehensive understanding of multi-component alloys and the role of elastic energy in their phase decomposition.

The luminescence and crystallization characteristics of these materials were thoroughly examined using various analytical methods. The nanocrystallization of Tb3+-doped Na5Gd9F32 within the doped fluoride-phosphate glasses resulted in enhanced photoluminescence (PL) and radioluminescence (RL) of the Tb3+ ions. The GC exhibited an internal PL quantum yield of 33 % and the integrated RL intensity across the UV-visible range was 36 % of that reported for the commercial BGO powder scintillator.

Surface plasmons are longitudinal waves propagating at the surface of the metallic material coupled to an external field. Localized surface plasmons on a nanoparticle reveal the behavior of standing waves with discrete resonance frequencies whose dominating mode is called dipole mode. Coupling of nanoparticles leads eventually to a hybridization of those dipole modes and therefore to spectral and spatial delocalization which was already investigated in ordered systems. In disordered systems, there are a lot of open questions regarding the propagation behavior which changes from delocalization to localization for instance due to the disorder. This phenomenon is then called Anderson localization. To investigate the propagation behavior of plasmonic waves in an assembly of disordered gold NPs, we combine experimental results of electron energy loss spectroscopy in a scanning transmission microscope with simulation results of the self-consistent dipole modelling. We indeed find experimentally localization of plasmon modes and with the simulation we could exclude other localization mechanism such as life-time damping or retardation. In conclusion, we could found Anderson localization of surface plasmons in assemblies of disordered gold nanoparticles which will enhance the understanding of this kind of vector waves to the Anderson localization as a general wave behavior in disordered systems.
