Plasma Surface Metallurgy/Alloying is a kind of surface metallurgy/alloying to employ low temperature plasma produced by glow discharge to diffuse alloying elements into the surface of substrate material to form an alloy layer. The first plasma surface metallurgy technology is plasma nitriding invented by German scientist Dr. Bernard Berghuas in 1930. He was the first person to apply glow discharge to realize the surface alloying. In order to break the limitation of plasma nitriding technology, which can only be applied to a few non-metallic gaseous elements such as nitrogen, carbon, sulfur, the Double Glow Discharge Phenomenonwas found in 1978. Based on this phenomenon the Double Glow Plasma Surface Metallurgy Technology, also known as the Xu-Tec Process was invented in 1980. It can utilize any chemical elements in the periodic table including solid metallic, gas non-metallic elements and their combination to realize plasma surface alloying, hence greatly expanded the field of surface alloying. Countless surface alloys with high hardness, wear resistance and corrosion resistance, such as high speed steels, nickel base alloys and burn resistant alloys have been produced on the surfaces of a variety of materials. This technology may greatly improve the surface properties of metal materials, comprehensively improve the quality of mechanical products, save a lot of precious alloy elements for human beings. Based on the plasma nitriding technology, the Xu-Tec Process has opened up a new material engineering field of Plasma Surface Metallurgy. This Review Article briefly presents the history of glow discharge and surface alloying, double glow discharge phenomenon, basic principle and current status of Double Glow Plasma Surface Metallurgy/Alloying. Industrial applications, advantages and future potential of the Xu-Tec process are also presented.

In order to break the limitation of plasma nitriding technology,which can be applied to a few nonmetallic gaseous elements, the Double Glow Discharge Phenomenon was found and then invented the Double Glow Plasma Surface Metallurgy Technology. This do uble glow plasma surface metallurgy technology can use any element in the periodic table of chemical elements for surface alloying of metal materials. Countless surface alloys with special physical and chemical properties have been produced on the surfaces of conductive materials.By using double glow discharge phenomenon,a series of new plasma technologies,such as the double glow plasma graphene technology, double glow plasma brazing technology,double glow plasma sintering technology, double glow plasma nanotechnology,double glow plasma cleaning technology, double glow plasma carburizing without hydrogen and so on, have been invented.A very simple phenomenon of double glow discharge can generate about 10 plasma innovation technologies, which fully shows that there is still a lot of innovation space on the basis of classical physics.This paper briefly introduces the basic principles,functions and characteristics of each technology. The application prospects and development directions of plasma in metal materials and machinery manufacturing industry will also be discussed.
Highly Oriented Pyrolytic Graphite was exfoliated via pulsed discharge plasma in liquid nitrogen. The potential mechanisms involved were investigated by observing the treated surface of the graphitic material and the obtained particles. Non-exfoliati ng defects from the plasma treatment were observed and experimental parameter were modified to counteract those. One experiment was performed without exposing the HOPG directly to the discharges so as to better understand the plasma role. The exfoliated particles were observed via TEM and SEM to evaluate the defects, the size, the purity and the crystallinity but no quantitative characterization of their thickness was possible so the actual number of layer of each particle is unknown. Nonetheless, few layers graphene (FLG) was successfully exfoliated through this process. The proposed mechanisms were extrapolated from the observation of the damaged HOPG surface and the obtained particles but the correlation found does not prove causation.
Self-organized patterns of spots on a at metallic anode in a cylindrical glow dis- charge tube are simulated self-consistently. A standard model of a glow discharge is used, comprising conservation and transport equations for a single species of ion and electrons, written with the use of the drift-diffusion and local-field approximations, and the Poisson equation. The computation domain is the region from the anode to the discharge column; only processes in the near-anode region are considered. Multiple solutions, existing in the same range of discharge current and describing modes with and without anode spots, are computed by means of a stationary solver. The computed spots exhibited unexpected behavior. A reversal of the local anode current density in the middle of each of the spots was found, i.e. mini-cathodes are formed inside the spots. The solutions do not fit into the conventional pattern of self-organization in bistable nonlinear dissipative systems; e.g. the modes are not joined by bifurcations.
The unique properties and atomic thickness of two-dimensional (2D) materials enable smaller and better nanoelectromechanical sensors with novel functionalities. During the last decade, many studies have successfully shown the feasibility of using sus pended membranes of 2D materials in pressure sensors, microphones, accelerometers, and mass and gas sensors. In this review, we explain the different sensing concepts and give an overview of the relevant material properties, fabrication routes, and device operation principles. Finally, we discuss sensor readout and integration methods and provide comparisons against the state of the art to show both the challenges and promises of 2D material-based nanoelectromechanical sensing.
Graphene flakes were produced by nanosecond plasma discharge at atmospheric pressure between an electrode and the surface of distilled water, in which were placed graphite flakes. The discharge ionizes the gas and forms free radicals on the surface o f the water, functionalizing the graphite flakes in solution. The plasma also gives enough energy to break the Van der Waals bonds between the graphene layers but not enough to break the covalent C-C bonds within the layers. Transmission electron microscopy confirmed the hexagonal structure of graphene sheets, and showed that they were monocrystalline. No contamination was found in the obtained nanomaterial. An unknown phenomenon has been found in the activated distilled water, making its electrical conductivity decrease with an increasing temperature. An acidification of the water is observed. The gas in which the discharge takes place plays a major role on the process, no exfoliation is observed if plasmogen argon gas is used.
