Application of Electron Backscatter Diffraction in Materials Engineering
Man, Ondřej ; Vodárek, Vlastimil (referee) ; Svoboda, Milan (referee) ; Švejcar, Jiří (advisor)
The thesis deals with principles and common applications of the electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) method. Some practical experience in application of the method to a study of highly deformed structure of copper and its thermal stability is described on one hand, and, on the other hand, to a study of phase composition of TRIP steel on various levels of imposed strain. The limitations of EBSD method are discussed along with its resolution in comparison with other complimentary techniques.

Metastable iron thin films for magnetic metamaterials
Holobrádek, Jakub ; Man, Ondřej (referee) ; Urbánek, Michal (advisor)
Magnetické nanostruktury mají zajímavé vlastnosti, které umožňují jejich aplikace v základním výzkumu i průmyslu. Jednou z těchto vědeckých disciplín je i magnonika - výzkumný obor, který se zabývá fyzikou spinových vln, které lze použít v nediskrétních výpočtech s nízkými ztrátami energie. Výroba magnetických struktur fokusovaným iontovým svazkem (FIB) je alternativní metoda k běžně používaným litografickým metodám. Materiál použitý v této práci - metastabilní železo - je schopen při ozáření iontovým svazkem podstoupit fázovou transformaci z paramagnetické plošně centrované kubické krystalové struktury na feromagnetickou fázi s prostorově centrovanou kubickou krystalovou strukturou. Jednou z vlastností, která ovlivňuje šíření spinových vlny, je magnetická anizotropie. Tato práce představuje vliv depozičních podmínek v ultra vysokém vakuu během přípravy metastabilní železné vrstvy na magnetickou anizotropii struktur vytvořených pomocí FIB do tohoto filmu. Dále prezentujeme souvislosti mezi parametry FIB, krystalografickými vlastnostmi výsledných struktur a jejich magnetickou anizotropií.

Microstructure and mechanical properties of ultra-fine grained titanium alloys
Václavová, Kristína ; Stráský, Josef (advisor)
Title: Microstructure and mechanical properties of ultra-fine grained titanium alloys Author: Bc. Kristína Václavová Department / Institute: Department of Physics of Materials Supervisor of the master thesis: PhDr. RNDr. Josef Stráský, Ph.D. Abstract: Metastable β-Ti alloys Ti-15Mo and Ti-6.8Mo-4.5Fe-1.5Al (TIMETAL LCB) were subjected to severe plastic deformation by high pressure torsion. Microhardness of Ti-15Mo and TIMETAL LCB alloys increases with increasing inserted deformation, i.e. with increasing number of HPT rotations and also with increasing distance from the centre of the sample. The highest microhardness after HPT exceeds significantly the microhardness of two-phase α + β heat-treated material. Increasingly deformed microstructure was also demonstrated by scanning electron microscopy and by electron back-scattered diffraction (EBSD). Significant twinning was observed in both studied alloys. Mechanism of multiple twinning contributes notably to the fragmentation of grains and thus to the refinement of the microstructure. Defect structure in Ti-15Mo alloy was studied by positron annihilation spectroscopy. It was proved that dislocations are the only detectable defects in the material by positron annihilation spectroscopy and that dislocation density increases with the number of HPT revolution and...

Microstructure and mechanical properties of Ti15Mo alloy prepared by ECAP
Terynková, Anna ; Stráský, Josef (advisor) ; Šíma, Vladimír (referee)
In the bachelor thesis, mechanical properties and microstructure of Ti-15Mo alloy prepared by equal channel angular pressing were studied along with their dependence on the number of passes. Microhardness was studied by Vickers method, microstructure was studied by scanning electron microscopy and by electron back-scattered diffraction (EBSD). Finally, the elasticity modulus was measured by resonant ultra-sound spectroscopy. Mircohardness significantly increased after the first ECAP pass. After the second and the third pass it was almost constant and it again distinctly rose after the fourth pass. Grains with the size of hundreds of micrometres were observed in all samples. The volume fraction of twinned material increased with the number of passes. Deformation bands were also observed, namely in samples after two and three passes. Elastic modulus significantly increased with increasing deformation by ECAP and the evolution of elastic modulus is qualitatively similar to the evolution of microhardness. Considering that the material was processed by ECAP at 250řC, the omega phase may have formed during the processing. The increase of microhardness and elastic modulus can be explained by the increasing volume fraction of the omega phase.
