摘要: 为探究铈镧合金在γ相区的压缩特性以及加载应变率对铈镧合金动态相变行为的影响,采用火炮驱动平面撞击和磁驱动斜波压缩两种加载方式对铈镧合金(Ce-5%La,La的质量分数为5%)进行动态加载,通过测量波剖面获得铈镧合金在γ相区的弹塑性转变、状态方程以及γ→α相变压力。结果表明,铈镧合金在平面撞击下会形成准等熵压缩波,证实铈镧合金在γ相区具有理论预测的反常压缩特性。正因为这一反常压缩特性,两种加载方式下铈镧合金在γ相区的应变率响应非常接近,从而导致γ→α相变压力对加载应变率不敏感。镧的掺入显著提高了铈合金的动态相变压力,显示出该相变具有4f电子驱动结构相变的特征。Abstract: In order to investigate the compressibility of cerium-lanthanum (CeLa) alloys in the γ phase and the effects of the strain rate on the phase transformation behaviors, two loading techniques, including both the powder-gun-driven planar impact and the magnetically driven ramp compression, are adopted to investigate the Ce-5%La alloys (the mass fraction of La is 5%). The elastic-plastic transition behavior, the equation of state in the γ phase, and the γ→α phase transition pressures, are obtained from the velocity profile measurement. It is found that isentropic compression waves can be generated upon planar impact into the CeLa alloy, which verifies that the CeLa alloy shows a theoretically predicted abnormal compressibility in the γ phase. Due to the abnormal compressibility, the strain rates of compression obtained from the diagnostic side of the CeLa alloys are close to each other, even though two different loading techniques are applied, as a result, the pressure of γ→α phase transition in the CeLa alloys is not sensitive to the loading strain rate. The addition of lanthanum into cerium alloys increases the pressure for the dynamic phase transition, showing the feature of phase transformation driven by 4f electron in strongly correlated systems.
