Fig. 1. Analyses of crystal structure, chemical composition, and microstructural characterizations. (a) Rietveld refinement for XRD pattern of nonstoichiometric VC0.5 bulk after sintering at 1400°C. (b) Typical BSE image and energy-dispersive x-ray spectroscopy (EDS) point-analyzed results in the inset. (c, d) The corresponding SEM-EDS mappings of (a).
Fig. 2. TEM analysis and quasi-monophasic structure model of the synthesized VC0.5. (a) HAADF-STEM image of the VC0.5 bulk sintered at 1400°C. (b, c) EDS mappings acquired from (a). (d) Typical HRTEM image acquired from the marked area of (a). (e) The IFFT image corresponding to the marked area of (d). (f, g) SAED patterns of (f) VC0.60 matrix and (g) VC0.37 precipitates. (h) Intensity-distance profiles are taken from the SAED patterns of the matrix and precipitates, as indicated by the red and green arrows in (f) and (g), respectively. (i) Atomic structure projection of synthesized VC0.5 along the [110] zone axis.
Fig. 3. Comparison of mechanical properties. (a) Vickers hardness and fracture toughness of VC1-x at 1400°C. (b) Ashby plot of hardness against fracture toughness for VC1-x compared with the previously reported binary RTMCs. Error bars shown in the plot represent the standard deviation of the data.
Fig. 4. Analysis of fracture behaviors. (a) The BSE image of the cracks initiated during indentation of VC0.5. (b) Magnified BSE image from the marked region in (a). Minor WC impurity introduced during MA are observed. (c) HADDF-STEM image of the cracks. (d) BF-STEM image of the crack propagation path in VC0.5. (e) Typical HRTEM image of the crack tip acquired from the marked of (d). Insets: the corresponding Fast Fourier transformation (FFT) images of the marked areas. (f) HRTEM image of the crack marked in (d).
