The energy pulse, obtained by releasing the energy stored in an inductor, can be equivalent to the combination of the DC field components and the energy component. The variations of the characterized voltages, nonlinear coefficients and pre-breakdown V-A characteristics, increase with the number of the applied energy pulse. The asymmetrical variations of the electric properties of the high-energy ZnO varistors after the energy pulse arise from the deformation of the double Schottky barriers due to the ion migration occuring in the depletion layer and in the grain boundary.展开更多

The results show that the boron powders exist in the form of an amorphous phase which has the crystallinity lower than 30.4%, and the panicle size of boron powder decreases with an increase of the high-energy ball milling rate. The purity of amorphous boron powder is 94.8% and panicle sizes are much smaller than 100 nm when the mass ratio of B2O3/Mg/KClO3 is 100:105:17 and the ball milling time is 20 min with the milling rate of 300 r/min. At the same time, the amorphous boron nano-fibers appear in the boron powders.展开更多

X-ray diffraetion(XRD), differential thermal analysis (DTA), thermo-gravimetrie (TG) analysis and coercive forces of the sintered samples were adopted to analyze the phase transformation and constitution, and the microstructures of sintered samples were characterized by scanning electron microscopy(SEM). The results show that the as-milled powders are transformed into transitional phases W2C and η (Co3W3C or Co6W6C) during sintering, and finally transformed into WC and Co phases completely at 1 250℃ for 30 min, and a large number of fibrous WC grains with about 1.2μm in length and 100 nm in radial dimension are formed in the sintered body at 1 300 ℃.展开更多
