Progress report on grain boundaries, February 15, 1990--October 15, 1990

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6261321
The present document is a progress report describing the work accomplished to date during the first year of our four-year grant (February 15, 1990--February 14, 1994) to study grain boundaries. The research was focused on the following four major efforts: study of the aromatic structure of grain boundaries by means of x-ray diffraction, transmission electro microscopy and computer modeling; study of grain boundary migration; study of short-circuit diffusion along grain boundaries; and the development of Thin-Film Deposition/Bonding Apparatus for the manufacture of high purity bicrystals.
