Synthesis and structural characterization of nanostructured copper
Source abstract
Abstract
In this paper, we report on the preparation and characterization of nanocrystalline powder of copper by dc-magnetron sputtering. Liquid nitrogen cooled cold finger arrangement has been used to prepare nanocrystalline powder. The particle size, crystal structure, and morphology of the samples were characterized by in situ high temperature X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscope (TEM). Results of high temperature XRD showed that highly oriented (111) phase becomes randomly oriented at higher temperature with a systematic shift in peak positions toward lower 2θ values due to changes in lattice parameters. Temperature dependence of lattice constants under vacuum shows linear increase in their values. Diffraction patterns obtained from TEM are also in accordance with the XRD data.
