| Popis: | The bonding characteristics and local structure of carbon in Fe-0.79 mass pct C martensitic and pearlitic steels are investigated using C K-edge X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) and full-potential real-space multiple-scattering calculations. We find that the subpeak at 288 to 290 eV is related to the precipitation of carbides such as θ-Fe3C, η-Fe2C, e-Fe3C, and χ-Fe5C2. Consequently, martensitic and pearlitic steels are characterized by peaks at 283 and 288 eV, respectively. The decay in the intensity of the peak at 288 eV follows carbon dilution in the θ-carbide, which is crucial for carbon aggregation. Since no high-precision C K-edge XAS spectral data are currently available for θ-Fe3C and carbon in solution, we believe that the proposed method is a suitable one for elucidating the mechanism of formation of the microstructure of steel from the viewpoint of carbon precipitation. |
