[0039] In order to prevent the energized wires from cutting the magnetic flux lines and causing interference to the test signals during the test, the electrical test signal wires are electromagnetically shielded by using twisted pair cables plus a shielding layer.
[0040] In order to ensure that the heat load of the micro-nano indentation test device designed by the present invention meets the requirements, the necessary low-temperature heat distribution calculation is performed on the test device, which specifically includes the following steps:
[0041] 1. Heat conduction of sample rod (stainless steel, diameter 1.5cm, wall thickness 0.3mm, top spacing 1m)
[0042]
[0043] 2. Heat conduction of instrument leads (phosphor bronze, 4 leads, cross-sectional area 0.0127 mm2, length 2 m)
[0044]
[0045] 3. Heat input of current transmission leads (copper, 4 pairs, 2A current, cross-sectional area 0.8231mm2, length 2m)
[0046]
[0047] 4. Heat input from radiation (from an aluminum sample holder with an area of 100 cm2 and a temperature of 20 K to a stainless steel wall at 4.2 K)
[0048]
[0049] When the temperature of the aluminum sample holder is 100K:
[0050]
[0051] The total heat input is 43mW+0.13mW+672mW+3.4mW=0.72W, so we choose the cooling rate to be 0.8W.
[0052] The static helium atmosphere in the sample chamber is atmospheric pressure (105Pa), and the helium conduction is in a fluid dynamics state, which is independent of pressure. Therefore, when the sample holder is at 20K, for helium with an intermediate temperature of about 12K, the average thermal conductivity is about 0.018W / (m·K). Without considering convection, the gas cooling rate is:
[0053]
[0054] For a sample temperature of 100 K and an average value of about 0.005 W / (m·K), the gas cooling rate will rise to approximately:
[0055]
[0056] All of the above meet the cooling rate requirements.
[0057] See attached Figure 2 As shown, before the ultra-low temperature-strong magnetic field micro-nano indentation test, a self-customized liquid helium-free variable temperature superconducting magnet system is used to provide a stable and adjustable ultra-low temperature-strong magnetic field environment for the sample chamber, wherein the superconducting magnet 16 provides a strong magnetic field for it, and the magnetic field strength is regulated by changing the loading current, and the cooling helium is sprayed on the outer wall of the sample chamber 18 to provide it with an ultra-low temperature, and the low temperature is regulated by a needle valve with an adjustable flow rate. The temperature sensor is built into the lower end of the sample rod, and the sample chamber is in a static helium atmosphere to ensure temperature uniformity; the test device is installed as a whole at the end of the sample rod 17 on the liquid helium-free variable temperature superconducting magnet system, and is inserted into the In the sample chamber 18, the liquid helium-free variable temperature superconducting magnet system uses a single refrigerator as a cold source, and the cold head 22 of the refrigerator is installed above the vacuum shell 19 of the system. The cold shield 25 and the superconducting magnet 16 are respectively connected to the primary cold stage 24 and the secondary cold stage 26 of the cold head. The bottom of the sample chamber 18 is inserted into the superconducting magnet 16 and is concentric with the superconducting magnet 16. The helium circulation gas path that provides variable temperature for the sample enters the chamber from the helium inlet 23 at the top of the vacuum chamber, and performs heat exchange with the primary cold stage 24 and the secondary cold stage 26 inside, so that the helium is fully cooled. The cooled helium passes through a manually adjustable needle valve and is throttled and cooled. After cooling, the colder helium is sprayed on the outer wall of the sample chamber 18, thereby cooling the sample chamber 18. The sample chamber 18 is a static helium atmosphere to ensure temperature uniformity. The helium gas after heat exchange with the sample cavity rises along the interlayer outside the sample cavity 18 , returns to the top of the vacuum cavity, and is then pumped out from the helium gas outlet 20 .
[0058] See attached Figure 3 As shown, in the indentation test, the pre-contact platform is controlled to drive the tested sample gradually close to the end of the indenter. When the first laser probe detects a sudden displacement change in the fixed beams at both ends, the forward drive is stopped, and the reverse drive is 2μm until the displacement value is zero. The point-changing platform is controlled to change points. At this time, the distance between the surface of the tested sample and the indenter is less than 2μm, and the pre-contact is completed. The loading platform is controlled to drive the tested sample to perform the indentation operation in the precision drive mode. The test method includes the following steps:
[0059] When the pressure head 9 just contacts the test sample 10, the displacements of the first laser probe 5 and the second laser probe 6 are reset to zero;
[0060] When the pressure head 9 is pressed into the test sample 10, the fixed beams 8 at both ends, i.e. the pressure head 9, move The closed-loop displacement of the loading platform 12 is measured by the first laser probe 5 of the laser interferometer with picometer accuracy. The indentation displacement is measured by the second laser probe 6. , indentation load in K e is the stiffness of the two-end fixed beam 8, measured by hanging a standard single hook weight. Therefore, the displacement of the two-end fixed beam 8, i.e., the pressure head 9, is obtained. d i , Loading platform 12 closed loop displacement d i and the rigidity of the fixed beam 8 at both ends K e , the indentation displacement can be extracted d and indentation load , and finally the load-depth during the pressing process is obtained curve.
[0061] See attached Figures 1 to 4As shown in the figure, the principle and specific working process of the whole test device are as follows: the end of the sample rod 17 which is integrally mounted on the liquid helium-free variable temperature superconducting magnet system is inserted into the sample cavity 18 through the mounting flange 21; when performing the ultra-low temperature-strong magnetic field nanoindentation test, the liquid helium-free variable temperature superconducting magnet system is started to provide a stable and adjustable ultra-low temperature-strong magnetic field environment for the sample cavity 18, wherein the superconducting magnet 16 provides a strong magnetic field for it, and the magnetic field strength is regulated by changing the loading current, and the cooling helium is sprayed on the outer wall of the sample cavity 18 to provide it with an ultra-low temperature, and the low temperature is regulated by the needle valve with adjustable flow, and the sample cavity 18 is in a static helium atmosphere to ensure temperature uniformity; the pre-connection is controlled The touch platform 13 drives the tested sample 10 to gradually approach the end of the indenter 9. When the first laser probe 5 detects a sudden displacement change in the fixed beams 8 at both ends, the forward drive is stopped, and the reverse drive is 2μm until the displacement value is zero. The point-changing platform 15 is controlled to change points. At this time, the distance between the surface of the tested sample 10 and the indenter 9 is less than 2μm, and the pre-contact is completed; the loading platform is controlled to drive the tested sample 10 to perform the pressing operation in the precision driving mode; the first laser probe 5 and the second laser probe 6 respectively measure the displacement of the fixed beams 8 (i.e., the indenter 9) at both ends and the loading platform 12, and the indentation displacement and indentation load can be extracted according to the test method; the point-changing platform 15 is controlled to change points on the tested sample 10.
[0062] The above test process is repeated for multiple tests, so as to achieve the test and analysis of basic mechanical parameters such as hardness and elastic modulus of the test samples under extremely low temperature (10K-300K) and strong magnetic field (9T) environment.
[0063] The present invention uses a single refrigerator as a cold source and helium as a cooling medium, which can effectively reduce the helium consumption in the test and save the test cost; at the same time, the sample cavity is in a static helium atmosphere, and the temperature uniformity is easier to ensure. The present invention has various loading forms, which can respectively realize the extremely low temperature, strong magnetic field, extremely low temperature-strong magnetic field coupling loading of the sample cavity, and multi-point indentation / scratch load loading of the tested sample.
[0064] The present invention adopts piezoelectricity as the driving mode of the loading, pre-contact and point-changing platforms, and adopts a laser interferometer and a laser probe as a displacement detection device. All components and leads in the micro-nano indentation test device are made of non-magnetic materials, and the deformation amount is small at low temperature. It can work stably for a long time in an extremely low temperature-strong magnetic field environment. At the same time, in order to avoid the interference of the test signal caused by the energized wire cutting the magnetic flux line during the test, the electrical test signal wire is electromagnetically shielded by a twisted pair cable plus a shielding layer.
[0065] The testing method proposed in the present invention can extract the indentation load through displacement measurement and obtain the load-depth Ph curve during the indentation process, which solves the problem that the indentation load is difficult to measure under the extremely low temperature and strong magnetic field environment. It will provide a novel means and tool for testing the service performance of materials in extreme environments and studying new physical properties, new phenomena and new laws under extremely low temperature and strong magnetic fields.

The micro-nano indentation testing device in an extremely low temperature and strong magnetic field environment as claimed in claim 1, characterized in that: The power supply wires of the loading platform (12), the pre-contact platform (13), and the point changing platform (15) are all made of pure copper, the temperature sensor wires are made of phosphor bronze, and the leads of the first laser probe (5) and the second laser probe (6) are made of vacuum optical fibers, which are respectively introduced and led out through the aviation plug and the vacuum flange at the top of the sample rod (17).
9. An indentation test method in an extremely low temperature and strong magnetic field environment, characterized in that: The test method is implemented based on the test device as claimed in claim 1. The test device is installed in the sample chamber (18) of the liquid helium-free variable temperature superconducting magnet system. The liquid helium-free variable temperature superconducting magnet system provides an extremely low temperature and strong magnetic field environment for the test method. The sample chamber (18) is located between the superconducting magnets (16). The superconducting magnets (16) provide a strong magnetic field for it. Cooling helium is sprayed on the outer wall of the sample chamber (18) to provide it with an extremely low temperature. When the indenter (9) just contacts the tested sample (10), the displacements of the first laser probe (5) and the second laser probe (6) are reset to zero. When the indenter (9) is pressed into the tested sample (10), the displacement of the indenter (9) is measured by the first laser probe (5), and the displacement of the loading platform (12) is measured by the second laser probe (6). The indentation displacement is equal to the displacement of the loading platform (12) minus the displacement of the indenter (9). The indentation load is equal to the stiffness of the fixed beams (8) at both ends multiplied by the indentation displacement, thereby obtaining a load-depth curve of the pressing process.
