A mapping measurement using pulsed neutron diffraction with time-of-flight method is performed on a full-shape Japanese sword made in Keicho era (1596-1615) to elucidate the manufacturing process. The obtained diffraction patterns are analyzed by the Rietveld refinement and a line profile analysis. The constituent phases in the area closer to the back of the blade (ridge) are found to be ferrite and cementite, composing pearlite, while the area close to the edge is composed by martensite and austenite. The distributions of constituent phases are well explained with the distributions of dislocation density and crystallite size. The carbon contents and the residual macroscopic stresses are estimated from the obtained phase fractions and lattice parameters.

We used neutron diffraction mapping measurements to elucidate the Japanese sword's microstructure and discuss the manufacturing procedures. Mapping measurements using pulsed neutron diffraction with time-of-flight method were performed on a full-shape and test pieces of Japanese sword. The obtained diffraction patterns are analyzed by the Rietveld refinement and a line profile analysis. The constituent phases in the area closer to the back of the blade (ridge) are found to be ferrite and cementite, composing pearlite, while the area close to the edge is composed by martensite and austenite.

In this study, we used neutron diffraction mapping measurements to elucidate the Japanese sword's microstructure and discuss the manufacturing procedures. Mapping measurements using pulsed neutron diffraction with time-of-flight method were performed on a full-shape and test pieces of Japanese sword. The distributions of residual macroscopic stresses in the width and thickness directions are small. The stress in the longitudinal direction is compressive at the ridge side, turns to quite large tensile at the middle part of width, then drastically decreases to be quite large compressive at the edge side of about -650 MPa.
