Experimental and theoretical studies of the structure of grain boundaries: Progress report

Technical Report Ashcroft, N W ; Sass, S L

The long range goal of this research project has been to obtain information on the atomic structure of grain boundaries in bcc metals and ceramics, to understand how segregation influences grain boundary structure and causes boundaries to become embrittled in Fe-base alloys, to understand how segregation and ionization state of the solute influences the boundary structure in ceramic materials, and to understand the role of boron and nonstoichiometry in making brittle boundaries in Ni/sub 3/Al become ductile. A theoretical program was initiated during the period of this grant with the goal of understanding and improving the interatomic potentials that aremore »« less

Zero-bias resistance of grain boundaries in neutron transmutation doped polycrystalline silicon. [Experimental and theoretical study]

Conference Seager, C H ; Castner, T G

At moderate to weak doping levels (< 10/sup 17//cm/sup 3/) the resistivity of polycrystalline silicon is controlled by grain boundary potential barriers. Electrical transport behavior of bulk samples of this material as well as the resistance of individual grain boundaries have been characterized. A model for grain boundary barrier formation has been developed and compared to this data. The results indicate that a variety of grain boundary defect state densities exist in the neutron transmutation doped silicon samples. In our more highly doped samples this leads to a variety of barrier heights, inhomogeneous current distributions, and a decidedly non-Arrhenius temperaturemore »« less
Evolutionary Search and Theoretical Study of Silicene Grain Boundaries’ Mechanical Properties

Journal Article Zhang, Jianan ; Koneru, Aditya ; Sankaranarayanan, Subramanian K. R. S. ; ... - Journal of Physical Chemistry. C

Defects such as grain boundaries (GBs) are almost inevitable during the synthesis process of 2D materials. To take advantage of the fascinating properties of 2D materials, understanding the nature and impact of various GB structures on pristine 2D sheets is crucial. In this work, using an evolutionary algorithm search, we predict a wide variety of silicene GB structures with very different atomic structures compared with those found in graphene or hexagonal boron-nitride. Twenty-one GBs with the lowest energy were validated by density functional theory (DFT), a majority of which were previously unreported to our best knowledge. Based on the diversitymore »« less

Atomic structure of a grain boundary in a metallic alloy: Combined electron microscope and theoretical study

Journal Article Luzzi, D E ; Yan, M ; Sob, M ; ... - Physical Review Letters; (United States)

A synergistic high-resolution electron microscopy (HREM) and theoretical analysis of the structure of a grain boundary in copper containing bismuth is presented. The calculation of the structure of the boundary were carried out using {ital N}-body empirical potentials constructed using results of {ital ab} {ital initio} full-potential linear-muffin-tin-orbital calculations. Excellent agreement between the calculated and observed structures is shown by comparing a through-focal series of observed and calculated images. It is shown for the first time that HREM combined with computer modeling employing realistic empirical potentials can decipher with a great accuracy the structure of boundaries containing multiple atomic species.
