Morphologies and structures of thus-grown ZnS nanosaws are characterized by a field emission scanning electron microscopy （FE-SEM） and a transmission electron microscopy （TEM）. The results show that temperature of the Si substrates used for collection of the products is a critical experimental parameter for the formation of ZnS nanostruetures with different morphologies. The growth mechanism of the ZnS nanosaws is discussed on the basis of the experimental findings.展开更多

The Ti–20Zr–10Ta alloy exhibited a reversible transformation with the high martensite transformation temperature of 500oC and good thermal stability. The alloy displayed the elongation of 15% and a maximum recovery stain of 5.5% with 8% pre-strain.展开更多

Different martensite morphologies were found with different annealing temperatures. The Ti–15Ta–15Zr alloy exhibits almost perfect shape memory recovery strain of 6% after annealing at 973 K for 0.5 h.展开更多

The results show that both the as-sintered and annealed sintered specimens exhibit typical martensitic transformation behaviours. The martensite of the sintered specimen after annealing exhibits a ferromagnetic nature. Moreover, study of the fracture surface indicates that the transgranular fracture con- tributes to the higher ductility of sintered Ni-Mn-Ga alloy. In addition, the transformation strain in sintered Ni-Mn-Ga alloy is studied for the first time.展开更多
