One hundred nanometer thick Fe-Co-Ni material chips were prepared and isothermally annealed at 500, 600, and 700 °C, respectively. Pixel-by-pixel composition and structural mapping was performed by microbeam X-ray at synchrotron light source. Diffraction images were recorded at a rate of 1 pattern/s. The XRD patterns were automatically processed, phase-identified, and categorized by hierarchical clustering algorithm to construct the composition-phase map. The resulting maps are consistent with corresponding isothermal sections reported in the ASM Alloy Phase Diagram Database, verifying the effectiveness of the present approach in phase diagram construction.

A high-throughput investigation of metallic glass formation via solid-state reaction was reported in this paper. Combinatorial multilayered thin-film chips covering the entire Ti-Ni-Cu ternary system were prepared using ion beam sputtering technique. Microbeam synchrotron X-ray diffraction (XRD) and X-ray fluorescence (XRF) measurements were conducted, with 1,325 data points collected from each chip, to map out the composition and the phase constitution before and after annealing at 373 K for 110 hours.

The combinatorial materials chip approach is vastly superior to the conventional one that characterizes one sample at a time in the efficiency of composition-phase map construction. However, the resolution of its high-throughput characterization and the correct rate of automated composition-phase mapping are often affected by inherent experimental limitations and imperfect automated analyses, respectively. Therefore, effective data preprocessing and refined automated analysis methods are required to automatically process huge amounts of experiment data to score a higher correct rate.

Two-dimensional monolayer materials are a highly anomalous class of materials under vigorous exploration. Mo- and W-dichalcogenides are especially unusual two-dimensional materials because they exhibit at least three different monolayer crystal structures with strongly differing electronic properties. This intriguing yet poorly understood feature, which is not present in graphene, may support monolayer phase engineering, phase change memory and other applications.

Mapping the phase behavior of multicomponent phospholipid membranes has been an ongoing pursuit, motivated by interest in both fundamental physics and cell function. Prior investigations addressed temperature-composition space and the features of the associated domains. The current study additionally considers membrane tension, analogous to pressure in bulk materials.
