    Notes: High-temperature phase relations in the Fe-rich corner of the Nd-Fe-Ti ternary alloy system have been investigated and an equilibrium phase diagram has been constructed at 1100 °C. Arc-melted and annealed alloys of systematically varying compositions were characterized utilizing scanning electron microscopy, an energy dispersive x-ray microanalysis system (EDS), x-ray diffraction, and optical metallography. Three major phases have been identified, the well known Nd(Fe,Ti)12 "1:12'' (ThMn12-type structure) and Nd2(Fe,Ti)17 "2:17'' (Th2Zn17-type structure) compounds, and a phase with approximate composition Nd2(Fe,Ti)19 "2:19.'' The crystal structure of the latter phase has very recently been solved, and the "ideal'' composition shown to be Nd3(Fe,Ti)29 "3:29.'' Quantitative EDS data has been used to identify the compositional limits for the three major phases. Annealing the "1:12'' and "3:29'' ternary phases at 900 °C results in a slow decomposition into Nd2(Fe,Ti)17, Fe2Ti, and α-Fe(Ti).

    Notes: Transport current-voltage (I-V) characteristics gathered over several orders of magnitude of current can reveal much about the loss mechanisms in high Tc superconductors. This article describes the design and implementation of a novel, computer-controlled, I-V characterization system which permits a I-V curve spanning five orders of magnitude of current to be captured in 50 ms. The advantages of this system over other methods of obtaining I-V curves are discussed. The system is applied to the study of high Tc superconductors and preliminary measurements are presented. Data obtained at 77 K for polycrystalline YBa2Cu3O7−δ are shown to be consistent with a I-V relation of the form, V=k(I−Ic)n, where Ic is the critical current, and k and n are constants.

    Notes: We present a novel application of the maximum entropy (MaxEnt) method for solving the double-inverse problems of removing instrument broadening from X-ray diffraction profiles and calculating the column-length distribution of the crystallites. The MaxEnt approach is shown to have compelling advantages over the conventional methods it replaces: it is stable and robust, incorporates noise and a priori information into the solution, preserves positivity of the solution, and can be applied successively. We also show how uncertainties in the derived profiles and column distributions can be determined and used in subsequent calculations, including integral breadth, Fourier coefficients, column-length distributions and apparent particle sizes. Calculations are performed on simulated X-ray diffraction profiles for a range of particle sizes, with a detailed study of the sensitivity of the results to background-level estimates and the use of an incorrect instrument response function.

    Notes: Several deconvolution methods common in X-ray diffraction profile studies have been examined using an eigen-system analysis in which an error-bound function is used to represent the maximum difference between the solution and true specimen profiles. This approach quantifies the sources of misfitting and ill-conditioning that appear in the solution profile and expresses them as a function of the control parameter for a particular method. A simulation of an instrument-broadened profile overlaid with random noise and background signals was used to evaluate the error-bound function for the iterative and constrained deconvolution methods, and the properties of the error-bound function were related to the features of the solution profile for each method. This analysis quantifies the terms that contribute to the ill-conditioning of the solution profile. It shows that, even for optimum values of the control parameters, positivity is not preserved and spurious oscillations are present in the solution profile.
