In this paper, we report the latest progress in the design and construction of nested X-ray telescopes which were designed to use a three-stage conic-approximation type assembly to simplify the manufacturing process. The mirror substrate is made using the thermal glass slumping method, with mirrors characterized by a root-mean-square roughness of 0.3 nm, with expected high reflectivity and good thermal stability. We also discuss methods of telescope construction and conduct a deformation analysis of the manufactured mirror. The in situ measurement system program is developed to guide the telescope assembly process.展开更多

A large transparent single crystal of 1-hexadecyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide monohydrate （[C16mim]Br·H2O）, 4 mm in length, was firstly obtained in the water-trichloromethane-toluene growth system （Vwater＇Vtrichloromethane＇Vtoluene = 0.1：1：2）. The crystal structure was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction method. It crystallizes in the triclinic system, space group P1, with a = 5.4962（15）, b = 7.839（2）, c = 27.279（8） A, α = 94.375, β = 91.500, γ = 101.999°, Z = 2, V = 1145.2（5） A3, C20H41BrN2O, Mr = 405.46, Dc = 1.176 Mg/m3, μ = 1.804 mm^-1, F（000） = 436, the final R = 0.0523 and wR = 0.1345. The 3D supramolecular structure is constructed through weak interactions between imidazolium cations, Br- anions and lattice water molecules. The long alkyl chain to the imidazolium ring and lattice water molecules play an important role in the self-assembly process. Moreover, it is proposed that [C16mim]Br in water has aggregation behavior and the possible self-assembled structure is the interdigitated pattern. Finally, thermal stability of [C16mim][Br]·H2O was also studied by DSC and TGA analysis.展开更多

Scanning electron microscopy(SEM) images verify that the Si(111) substrate leads to failure of the Ni assembly due to Si–N interlayer formation; the GaN(0001) and sapphire(0001) substrates promote assembly of the Ni particles. This indicates that the GaN/sapphire(0001) substrates are fit for Ni self-assembly. For the Ni assembly process on Ga N/sapphire(0001) substrates,three differences are observed from the x-ray diffraction(XRD) patterns:(i) Ni self-assembly on the sapphire(0001) needs a 900?C annealing temperature, lower than that on the GaN(0001) at 1000?C, and loses the Ni network structure stage;(ii) the Ni particle shape is spherical for the sapphire(0001) substrate, and truncated-cone for the GaN(0001) substrate; and(iii) a Ni–N interlayer forms between the Ni particles and the GaN(0001) substrate, but an interlayer does not appear for the sapphire(0001) substrate. All these differences are attributed to the interaction between the Ni and the Ga N/sapphire(0001) substrates. A model is introduced to explain this mechanism.展开更多

Microstructural evolution and cracks induced by thermal cycling in CBGA assemblies were examined by scanning electron microscopy （SEM） and finite element method （FEM）. Before thermal cycling, intermetallic compounds （IMCs） Cu6Sn5 and Ag3Sn were observed at the solder interface between Cu and Ag metallizations, respectively. After thermal cycling, another IMC Cu3Sn was observed near the Cu pad in both two assemblies and the layers of Cu6Sn5 and Ag3Sn became thicker. As a result of thermal cycling, cyclic stress and strain were accumulated in the solder joint leading to fatigue cracking. Both experiments and FEM revealed that cracks preferred to initiate at the corner of each solder joint. Multi-modes of the crack propagation were found in the two assemblies. Based on Coffin-Manson equation, the thermal fatigue life was calculated and the predicted life showed good agreement with the experimental results.展开更多
