We demonstrated that a microchip with a wedge-shaped micro space fabricated by polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) has a potential application for particle size-distribution analysis. The fabrication of the microchips was achieved using a wedge-shaped structure as a template, which was formed by a Digital-light processing (DLP) 3D-printing technique. An approach for evaluating the particle-size from the settling distance of each particle in the wedge-shaped micro space allowed us to design a simple particle detection device consisting of an inorganic electroluminescence sheet, the microchip and a line charge-coupled device (CCD) sensor. The particles detection system, based on the transmitted light intensity, was successfully applied to simultaneous measurements for the particle size of glass beads. The obtained particle size was almost identified with that measured with a microscope.

The valence electron structures (VES) of unit cells of the FCC iron matrix (gamma) and B1-type carbides (xi) in gamma-Fe-M-C alloy systems (M=Nb, Ti, and V) were calculated using the empirical electron theory of solids and molecules (EET). Based on the results, the coherent interfacial energy between B1-type carbides and FCC iron matrix in gamma-Fe-M-C alloy system was calculated and analyzed by combining EET and the discrete lattice plane-nearest neighbor broken bond (DLP-NNBB) method with covalent bond energy. The results showed that the solid solution strengthening effect was produced by the solute phase boundary segregation of the alloy elements at the gamma/xi interface, which enhanced the covalent bond network. The Nb alloy system had the largest segregation effect in gamma-Fe-M-C alloy system. Moreover, the gamma/xi interfacial energy varies with different alloy elements over the range of 0.4-1.3 J/m(2), and the gamma-Fe-Nb-C alloy system has the largest coherent interfacial energy.The proposed theoretical method is consistent with the theoretical values calculated using other models, as well as empirical values. This indicates that the method proposed in this work is feasible for providing theoretical analysis and guidance.
