AbstractWe have investigated the Y‐Sr‐Cu‐O system which has been reported to form a K2NiF4‐type superconducting phase (TC∼40K) and a “123”‐type phase (Tc‐80K). Difficulties in preparing single phase materials by standard solid state reaction of carbonates and oxides have compelled us to explore other methods. A two‐stage solid state processing technique in addition to a coprecipitation method will be discussed along with the relative advantages and disadvantages of each. Using data obtained from XRD and EDS, we have mapped some of the YO1.5‐SrO‐CuO ternary phase diagram in anticipation of continued efforts at single crystal growth.

The evolution of interfacial microstructure of eutectic SnAgCu and SnPb solders on Al/Ni(V)/Cu thin films was investigated after various heat treatments. In the eutectic SnPb system, the Ni(V) layer was well protected after 20 reflow cycles at 220 °C. In the SnAgCu solder system, after 5 reflow cycles at 260 °C, the (Cu,Ni)6Sn5 ternary phase formed and Sn was detected in the Ni(V) layer. After 20 reflow cycles, the Ni(V) layer disappeared and spalling of the (Cu,Ni)6Sn5 was observed, which explains the transition to brittle failure mode after ball shear testing. The different interfacial reactions that occurred in the molten SnAgCu and SnPb systems were explained in terms of different solubilities of Cu in the two systems. The dissolution and formation of the (Cu,Ni)6Sn5phase were discussed on the basis of a Sn–Ni–Cu phase diagram. In the solid-state aging study of the SnAgCu samples annealed at 150 °C for up to 1000 h, the Ni(V) layer was intact and the intermetallic compound formed was Cu6Sn5 and not (Cu,Ni)6Sn5, which is the same as was observed for the eutectic SnPb system.

Abstract Cold and pressure transform gas into liquid and then into solid. Van der Waals understood the phase diagram of liquefiable gas with the molecular volume and intermolecular attraction, however, was silent on how solid behaved1. Unfortunately, solid-state phase diagram have remained uncomprehended mystery; only its straight boundary2,3 was explained by struggle of order vs. chaos. Here we show that the volume of orbital overlap has its own energy, with the universal density 8.941 eV/Å3 announced as new fundamental atomic constant that determines the transition temperature TC. Furthermore, we devised solid-state tomography, valid to 5 TPa, - imaging orbital through the baric dependencies of TC. Triangle-shaped pattern of the diagram is explained by the only possible way, just as only one plane passes through triangle: -inflation of the intersection volume during the transition determines hysteresis, but its disappearance does triple point; -approaching ions, whose orbitals overlap, curves the line from zero-field-cooling (ZFC) TC to triple point; -the straight line between zero-field-heating (ZFH) TC and triple point is a consequence of straightening tilting angle. Diamond melting point, calculated from volumes of the tetrahedral covalent bonds, excellently agrees with real; furthermore, the points up to 2 TPa agree with experiment4. Our findings open up way to interpret antiferromagnetism and steric effect in mono, binary, and ternary transition-metal oxides and sulfides5-11, and advance in unravelling unconventional superconductivity12,13, ascertaining the roles of s- and p-hybridizations. Thereby, the importance of the solid-state tomography for organic conductors12,13 being high-compressible and interior of stars can scarcely be exaggerated.

The design of a new microfurnace for use for Laue diffraction studies of solid-state transformations is described. The furnace operates in the temperature range 298–573 K with a thermal stability of about ± 0.1 K. The potential of the synchrotron-radiation Laue diffraction technique for studies of structural phase transitions is demonstrated. Experimental data on phase transitions in caesium periodate, potassium tetrachlorozincate and pentaerythritol are presented.
