Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立海洋大學 === 材料工程研究所 === 84 === Since copper and carbon are immiscible, Cu-C pseudoalloy is likely to be a noble material for the high-temperature applications. In this study, Cu-C pseudoalloys were prepared by mechanical alloying (MA) and R.F. magnetron sputter deposition techniques. With careful control of processing conditions, the carbon concentrations in Cu-C alloys obtained were up to 59.4 and 16.3 at.% by MA and sputter deposition, respectively. Lattice expansion of Cu evidenced by XRD indicated that interstitial carbon atoms were in solid solution with copper. After annealing, a massive phase separation occurred (heated to 400。) for as-milled Cu-C powder, while the precipitation of carbon-rich nanocrystalline phase appeared in Cu-C films (heated to 550。). Thermal analysis results showing exothermic transitions in both cases confirmed the in situ hot stage TEM observations. Ultra-microhardness results showed hardnesses increased with carbon contents for both Cu-C powders and films. Electrical resistivity measurement revealed the resistivities of Cu-C films decreased with carbon contents for the low carbon concentrations (<11.3%C) whereas it showed a different trend above 11.3%C, suggesting the improvement of film microstructure.
