Outline of Final Research Achievements

We have been working on atomic-scale structural analysis of the molten metal/solid interface by atomic force microscopy (AFM) using a quartz tuning fork sensor. In particular, we focused on the alloy crystal growth at the interface between the molten metal and the solid metal. By introducing a temperature control equipment, structural phase transitions of alloy crystals depending on temperature and AFM analysis in molten metal with a melting point higher than room temperature were achieved. In addition, we have worked on the theoretical and experimental aspects of the two-body interaction in molten metals.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

ハンダ付けや溶融金属メッキなど、金属を溶融状態で扱う実用プロセスは多岐にわたる。そのような溶融金属と固体材料とが接する界面における現象は、接合や複合材料生成プロセスなどに強く関連することから、その解明は重要である。本課題では、その界面現象を原子スケールで分析する顕微鏡技術を開発し、それに取り組んだ。
