Metastable structures in magnetron sputtered W–Zr thin-film alloys: properties and thermal behavior
Original language description
The work focuses on preparation of thin-film metallic alloys from the W–Zr system by non-reactive magnetron sputtering and investigation of their structure, properties, and thermal behavior. We were able to prepare W–Zr thin-film alloys with several metastable structures in respect to the equilibrium phase diagram. Up to 24 at.% Zr, the structure is characterized by a supersaturated bcc α-W(Zr) solid solution with a highly oriented structure, columnar microstructure, enhanced hardness and very low residual stress. In the range between 33 and 83 at.% Zr, an amorphous structure with features indicating metallic glass behavior is observed. These films exhibit a very smooth surface, moderate compressive stress, and constant electrical resistivity. Above 83 at.% Zr, high-temperature bcc β-Zr(W) and high-pressure hcp ω-Zr(W) phases with an enhanced hardness are prepared. Moreover, an interesting dual structure with crystalline conical domains surrounded by a metallic glass is formed at 28 at.% Zr.
