Evidence of room-temperature shear-deformation in a Cu-Al intermetallic
Abstract
Abstract Lamellar eutectics are known to evidence plastic shear in otherwise brittle intermetallics, if the lamella spacing is small enough. Here we pursue this idea of confined plasticity in intermetallics further and demonstrate room-temperature shear-deformation in a two-phase CuAl2-CuAl intermetallic nano-composite. The presence of a phase with a 3-fold symmetry is also revealed after deformation. Simulation of transmission electron microscopy images shows this to be monoclinic CuAl. These observations are made in the deformation zone underneath locations of nanoindents, of which the force-displacement curves exhibit an unusual response of continuously increasing pop-in sizes with load.

“Truog et al. [25] and Ikeda et al. [42] reported the formation of CuAl 2 , CuAl, and Cu 9 Al 4 intermetallic thin layers with a thickness of less than 1 µm at the Al-Cu interface boundary.”

“In addition to work hardening, the formation of intermetallic compounds has also been considered in some studies [16,29,30,42] as a reason behind the elevated hardness near the interface.”

In the citing paper
“For instance, in their research on intermetallic phases between Al and Cu, Ikeda et al. [42] reported the following series of intermetallic phases respectively: Al → CuAl 2 → CuAl → Cu 4 Al 3 → Cu 9 Al 4 → Cu, which are intermetallic phases in the room-temperature bonding processes.”

In the citing paper
“However, based on the study of Sietins et al. [37,54] and some other studies [25,42], the thickness of intermetallic phases is very thin (less than 10 µm) and it might affect the hardness gradient.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
