`

`1. My name is Michael O’Keeffe. I make this declaration based on my
`
`own personal knowledge.
`
`2.
`
`I obtained a B.S. degree in Biotechnology from Trinity College,
`
`Dublin, in 1976, and a M.S. degree in Biotechnology from Okayama University
`
`Japan in 1980. I also obtained a Diploma in Japanese from Osaka University of
`
`Foreign Studies in Japan in 1977.
`
`3.
`
`English is my native language and I speak, read, and write English
`
`fluently. I am also familiar with the Japanese language.
`
`4.
`
`In 1980, I began working as a translator of materials from Japanese
`
`into English, and I have been working as a translator of Japanese language
`
`materials for over 30 years (working full time as a translator from 1987 to 1999,
`
`and from 2006 to present). I have worked for clients such as the European Patent
`
`Office and the Japanese Cabinet Office, I have served as a quality manager for the
`
`World Patent Index (DWPI), and I have taught Japanese at the Japan-Ireland
`
`Society, Dublin.
`
`5.
`
`I presently work with Transperfect Legal Solutions. My job
`
`responsibilities include translating documents from Japanese to English.
`
`6.
`
`Attached as Exhibit A to this Declaration is a true and correct copy of
`
`excerpts from the Titanium & Zirconium Journal, including the cover page (with
`
`table of contents) and the article entitled, “Shape Memory and Super-elasticity
`
`COOK
`Exhibit 1025-0002
`
`

`

`Effects in NiTi alloys,” by Yuichi Suzuki (the “Suzuki article”). This copy is
`
`written in Japanese.
`
`7.
`
`Attached as Exhibit B to this Declaration is a translation of these
`
`items from the Titanium & Zirconium Journal. This translation is a true and
`
`correct translation (from Japanese to English) of these items, including the Suzuki
`
`article.
`
`8.
`
`A true and correct copy of the Suzuki article (along with its true and
`
`correct translation) has been designated EX. 1012 in this proceeding.
`
`9.
`
`I have been warned that willfiil false statements and the like are
`
`punishable by fine or imprisonment, or both. I declare under penalty of perjury
`
`under the laws of the United States of America that the foregoing is true and
`
`correct.

`Shape Memory and Super-elasticity
`
`Ni-Ti fifiwfiélfifififlfitflflfi
`
`Effects in NiTi Alloys
`
`Summary: The equiatomic or near equiatomic NiTi is a unique intermetallic compound. It has good ductility, a
`
`shape memory effect, and a super-elasticity. The alloy undergoes a martemitic transformation at near room temper-
`
`ature. The low temperature phase is characterized by high damping capacity, and the high temperature phase by
`
`excellent abrasion and corrosion resistance. By a shape memory effect we mean that the alloy plastically deformed
`
`in the low temperature phase recovers its original shape in subsequent heating. Super-elasticity is a rubber-like
`
`behavior of the alloy in which a strain attained beyond the elastic limit in loading recovers upon unloading. The
`
`following is a presentation of the general properties and deformation mechanisms of the shape memory effect and
`
`the super-elasticity of the NiTi alloys including its applications such as in jointing devicu, thermal actuators, and
`medical devices.

`Summary: The equiatomic or near equiatomic NiTi is a unique intermetallic compound. It has good
`ductility, a shape memory effect, and a super-elasticity. The alloy undergoes a martensitic transformation
`at near room temperature. The low temperature phase is characterized by high damping capacity, and the
`high temperature phase by excellent abrasion and corrosion resistance. By a shape memory effect we
`mean that the alloy plastically deforms in the low temperature phase and recovers its original shape in
`subsequent heating. Super-elasticity is a rubber-like behavior of the alloy in which a strain loading
`beyond the elastic limit recovers upon unloading. The following is a presentation of the general properties
`and transformation mechanisms of the shape memory effect and the super-elasticity of the NiTi alloys
`including its application such as in jointing devices, thermal actuators, and medical devices.
`
`
`1. Ni-Ti alloys have various characteristics
`A Ni-Ti alloy containing nickel and titanium in
`the atomic ratio of 1:1 shows unique characteristics.
`Although it is an intermetallic compound, it can be
`worked plastically. Furthermore,
`the
`alloy
`undergoes a martensitic transformation at a certain
`temperature near room temperature. The alloy
`shows various unique forms of behavior
`in
`accordance with the martensitic transformation.

`
`It has been known that this alloy has a great
`damping
`capacity
`at
`temperatures
`below
`martensitic
`transformation
`temperature
`(abbreviated
`to M-transformation
`temperature
`hereinafter; this M-transformation will be described
`in the section on mechanisms below, but it is to be
`understood here to be a certain temperature or the
`like.1) The alloy was developed by the Naval
`Ordnance Laboratory (NOL) as a soundproofing
`material for submarines as a countermeasure
`against SONAR. The damping capacity can be
`called the first feature. The damping characteristic
`could therefore conceivably be used as a damping
`material or a soundproofing material.2)

`
`The second feature of the alloy is characterized by a shape
`memory effect which appears when the M-transformation and a reverse
`M-transformation are cycled in a temperature domain near the M-
`transformation temperature, precisely speaking, one that straddles the
`M-transformation temperature. This phenomenon is characterized in
`that when the alloy is heated to a temperature higher than the M-
`transformation temperature after it has been deformed at a temperature
`lower than the M-transformation temperature, its shape recovers to its
`original form.3) - 5)
`The third feature of the alloy, super-elasticity appears in a
`temperature domain slightly higher than the M-transformation
`temperature. This is a rubber-like behavior in which a deformation
`strain of several percent which significantly exceeds the yield point is
`recovered only upon unloading, so this behavior is sometimes called
`false elasticity or rubber elasticity.6)
`Although these unique phenomena do not appear in a temperature
`region much higher than the M-transformation temperature, these
`characteristics of the alloy become significantly advantageous in a
`structured material having both excellent corrosion and abrasion
`resistances. The fourth feature has been previously made use of in
`certain portions of chemical plants or the like where rubbing takes
`place and where corrosion resistance is required.

`
`Since the fourth feature consisting of corrosion and abrasion
`resistances as described above has been previously disclosed in this
`magazine,7) the shape memory effect and super-elasticity which have
`recently become of major interest for functional materials will now be
`described with introducing practical examples.
`2.
`Shape memory effect and super-elasticity
`As described above, the shape memory effect and super-elasticity
`are phenomena in which a deformation strain exceeding the yield point
`can be reversed only by heating or unloading. These phenomena will
`now be more specifically described with reference to actual
`photographs and stress-strain diagrams (Fig. 1).
`
`On the other hand, a super-elastic alloy does not require heating
`for recovering from strain. If the load is removed after the alloy has
`been deformed to the yield region, the strain, as shown in Fig. 1, returns
`to zero, exhibiting a behavior which is the opposite of the yield
`phenomenon.
`It must be noted here that the amount of strain which can be
`reversed by the shape memory effect or super-elasticity has a certain
`limitation. Strain sometimes cannot be recovered from, depending on
`the manner of deformation. The point will now be described with
`reference to a stress-strain diagram covering a high strain domain (Fig.
`2).8)

`Fig. 1 Stress-strain diagrams of shape memory alloy, super-elastic alloy, and normal metallic material
`
`the M-transformation
`
`temperature, yield occurs after elastic
`
`deformation ①, and the stress becomes approximately constant. If the
`load is removed at an intermediate portion of the flat portion ②,
`apparent plastic strain ③ remains, but this strain is removed by
`work hardening has progressed to a certain degree ④ the strain ⑤ also
`permanent deformation ⑥. If the deformation strain further increases,
`breaks. A material which has been extensively work-hardened ⑦ will
`
`heating, as mentioned above. However, if the deformation strain
`increases so as to exceed the flat portion, the stress again begins to
`increase, and work hardening begins. If the load is removed when the
`
`remains, but this strain cannot be recovered from by heating to a
`temperature beyond the M-transformation temperature, resulting in a
`
`the increase in stress becomes moderate, and finally the material
`
`not recover its shape by heating.
`
`Therefore, it is necessary to restrict the amount of strain to below
`a certain value (7.5% in Ni-Ti alloy) in order to obtain an excellent
`shape recovery characteristic. This is exactly the same as the condition
`for super-elasticity.
`
`Both the shape memory effect and super-elasticity were
`accidently discovered in an alloy consisting of gold and cadmium in
`the early 1950s,9) but they did not attract much attention at the time
`because of the rarity of the alloy. The shape memory effect was not
`studied much until after significant shape memory effects were
`discovered in Ni-Ti alloys by the NOL (as described above).10) Since
`
`
`
`Strain 
`Fig. 2 Stress-strain diagram of shape memory Ni-Ti alloy
`A normal metallic material completely recovers from a
`deformation strain below its elastic limit upon unloading, but if the
`strain enters the yield region after exceeding the elastic limit, only the
`elastic deformation can be reversed upon unloading, leaving plastic
`deformation which creates permanent deformation.
`
`If deformation strain is applied to an alloy exhibiting the shape
`memory effect, that is, a shape memory alloy, yield is similarly seen
`after the straight-line region caused by elastic deformation, and
`apparent plastic deformation
`remains after unloading. This
`deformation does not depend on displacement slip which is seen in
`usual metallic materials, but it is a kind of hemitrope deformation, but
`the appearance bears no relation to the plastic deformation due to slip.
`However, these deformation strains can be cancelled and the original,
`strain-free, shape can be regained by heating the alloy to a temperature
`above the M-transformation temperature.

`
`
`then, numerous research results have been disclosed, and more than a
`dozen alloys having the shape memory effect have been discovered.
`
`However, when this effect was discovered in Ni-Ti alloys, the
`fact that these alloys have super-elasticity was not known. Therefore,
`super-elasticity has mainly been studied in Cu-Al-Ni alloys as a
`phenomenon which is independent from the shape memory effect. The
`super-elasticity of the Ni-Ti alloys was discovered at the beginning of
`the 1970s, immediately before it was clarified that the two phenomena
`depend
`upon
`super-elastic
`M-transformation.11) 12)
`Materials which have corrosion and abrasion resistances in the
`high temperature phase have been developed for structural materials,
`completely independently of their shape memory effects as functional
`materials. These materials were realized as the functional materials
`much earlier.
`
`3. Mechanisms of shape memory effect and super-elasticity.
`The reasons governing the occurrence of the shape memory effect
`and super-elasticity are complicated, and not many details have been
`clarified scientifically. Therefore, only the mechanism which has been
`clarified will now be simply described (see Fig. 3).
`
`When a shape memory alloy which is in an austenitic phase
`(abbreviated to A phase hereinafter) at a high temperature is cooled and
`the alloy passes a certain temperature (M-transformation start
`temperature, called the Ms point), the alloy M-transforms from the A
`phase to the M phase. The M phase is a well-known phenomenon
`which occurs when steels are rapidly cooled down. This phase also
`occurs in metals such as titanium or zirconium, or in alloys. This
`phenomenon is due to a phase transformation in which the crystal
`structure changes mainly by shear transformation, without any
`accompanying diffusion, with the solid phase thereof retained.13)
`When the M phase is heated to a temperature at which the M phase is
`returned back again to the A phase (This temperature is slightly higher
`than the Ms point reached during cooling, and is called the Af point.
`The previously described M-transformation temperature is this Af
`point.), the A phase is again realized. If no external force is applied, the
`
`macrostructure of the alloys are not changed by
`this cycle consisting of transformation and
`inverse transformation. However, the case is
`different if an external force is applied to the M
`phase. In this case, if the stress exceeds the
`yield-stress, apparent plastic deformation occurs
`as mentioned above, but this deformation is a
`sort of hemitrope
