Metastable $$beta$$ titanium alloys possess excellent strain-hardening capability, but suffer from a low yield strength. As a result, numerous attempts have been made to strengthen this important structural material in the last decade. Here, we explore the contributions of grain refinement and interstitial additions in raising the yield strength of a Ti-12Mo (wt.%) metastable $$beta$$ titanium alloy. Surprisingly, rather than strengthening the material, grain refinement actually lowers the ultimate tensile strength in this alloy. This unexpected and anomalous behavior is attributed to a significant enhancement in strain-induced $$alpha^{primeprime}$$ martensite phase transformation, where in-situ synchrotron X-ray diffraction analysis reveals, for the first time, that this phase is much softer than the parent $$beta$$ phase. Instead, a combination of both oxygen addition and grain refinement is found to realize an unprecedented strength-ductility synergy in a Ti-12Mo-0.3O (wt.%) alloy. The advantageous effect of oxygen solutes in this ternary alloy is twofold. Firstly, solute oxygen largely suppresses strain-induced transformation to the $$alpha^{primeprime}$$ martensite phase, even in a fine-grained microstructure, thus avoiding the softening effect of excessive amounts of $$alpha^{primeprime}$$ martensite. Secondly, oxygen solutes readily segregate to twin boundaries, as revealed by atom probe tomography. This restricts the growth of $${332}langle113rangle$$ deformation twins, thereby promoting more extensive twin nucleation, leading to enhanced microstructural refinement. The insights from our work provide a cost-effective rationale for the design of strong yet tough metastable $$beta$$ titanium alloys, with significant implications for more widespread use of this high strength-to-weight structural material.

High-spin states of $$^{190}$$Pt have been reinvestigated using the $$^{176}$$Yb($$^{18}$$O, 4$$n$$) reaction at a beam energy of 88 MeV. The previously known positive parity band associated with the $$nu$$ $$i^{-2}_{13/2}$$ $$nu$$ $$h^{-1}_{9/2}$$ $$nu$$ $$j^{-1}$$ ($$nu j$$ being $$nu p_{3/2}$$ or $$nu f_{5/2}$$) configuration has been revised and extended significantly. A new negative parity band has been established and proposed to be based on the $$nu$$ $$i^{-3}_{13/2}$$ $$nu$$ $$j^{-1}$$ configuration. Possible structure evolution of the yrast line from predominantly vibrational to rotational with increasing spin is discussed with the help of E$$_gamma$$ over spin curves. Additionally, calculations of Total Routhian surfaces have been performed to investigate the band properties.

High-spin states in $$^{101}$$Pd have been investigated by means of in-beam $$gamma$$-ray spectroscopic techniques. The previously known $$d$$$$_{5/2}$$ and 1/2$$^-$$[550] bands were extended to higher spins. The band crossings observed experimentally are explained by the alignment of $$g$$$$_{9/2}$$ protons. The band properties in $$^{101}$$Pd are compared with those in the neighboring nuclei and are discussed within the framework of the cranked shell model.

Giant spin Hall effect of Au films with Pt impurities; Surface-assisted skew scattering

Gu, B.; Ziman, T.*; Guo, G.-Y.*; Nagaosa, Naoto; Maekawa, Sadamichi

Journal of Applied Physics, 109(7), p.070502_1 - 070502_3, 2011/03

We show theoretically a novel route to obtain giant room temperature spin Hall effect (SHE) using surface-assisted skew scattering. By a combined approach of density functional theory and the quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) method, we have studied the SHE due to a Pt impurity in different Au hosts. We show that the spin Hall angle (SHA) could become larger than 0.1 on the Au (111) surface, and decreases by about a half on the Au (001) surface, while it is small in bulk Au. The QMC results show that the spin-orbit interaction (SOI) of the Pt impurity on the Au (001) and Au (111) surfaces is enhanced, because the Pt 5$$d$$ levels are lifted to the Fermi level due to the valence fluctuations. In addition, there are two SOI channels on the Au (111) surface, while only one for Pt either on the Au (001) surface or in bulk Au.

By quantum Monte Carlo simulation of a realistic multi-orbital Anderson impurity model, we have studied the spin-orbit interaction (SOI) of an Fe impurity in Au host metal. We have shown, for the first time, that the SOI is strongly renormalized by the quantum spin fluctuation. Based on this mechanism, we could explain why the gigantic spin hall effect in Au with Fe impurities was observed in recent experiment, while it is not visible in the anomalous hall effect. In addition, we have shown that the SOI is strongly renormalized by the coulomb correlation $$U$$. Based on this picture, we could explain past discrepancies in the calculated orbital angular momenta for an Fe impurity in Au host.

High-spin states in $$^{187}$$Pt has been studied experimentally by in-beam $$gamma$$-ray spectroscopy. The previously known bands based on the $$nu i_{13/2}, nu 7/2^{-}[503] $$ and $$nu i^{2}_{13/2} nu j$$ configurations have been extended to high-spin states, and new rotational bands associated with the $$nu 3/2^{-}[512]$$ and $$nu 1/2^{-}[521]$$ Nilsson orbits have been identified. The total Routhian surface calculations indicate that the transitional nucleus $$^{187}$$Pt is very soft with respect to $$beta$$ and $$gamma$$ deformations. The band properties have been compared with the systematics observed in neiboring nuclei and have been interpreted within the framework of the cranked shell model.

Search for low-spin signature inversion in the $$pi i_{13/2} bigotimes nu i_{13/2}$$ bands in odd-odd $$^{182,184,186}$$Au have been made through in-beam $$gamma$$-ray spectroscopy techniques. The $$pi i_{13/2} bigotimes nu i_{13/2}$$ bands in the three nuclei have been identified and extended up to high-spin states. In particlular, the interband connection between the $$pi i_{13/2} bigotimes nu i_{13/2}$$ band and the ground-state band in $$^{184}$$Au have been established, leading to a firm spin-and-parity assignment for the $$pi i_{13/2} bigotimes nu i_{13/2}$$ band. The low-spin signature inversion is found in the $$pi i_{13/2} bigotimes nu i_{13/2}$$ bands in $$^{182,184,186}$$Au.

Excited states in $$^{188}$$Tl have been studied experimentally by in-beam $$gamma$$-ray spectroscopy. A rotational band built on the $$pi rm h_{9/2} bigotimes nu rm i_{13/2}$$ configuration with oblate deformation has been established for $$^{188}$$Tl. Based on the structure systematics of the oblate $$pi rm h_{9/2} bigotimes nu rm i_{13/2}$$ bands in heavier odd-odd Tl nuclei, we have tentatively proposed spin values for the new band in $$^{188}$$Tl. The new oblate band shows low-spin signature inversion, and it can be interpreted qualitatively by the two-quasiparticle plus rotor model including a $$J$$-dependent $$p$$-$$n$$ residual interaction.
