Slip, Twinning, And Fracture At A Grain Boundary In The L12 Ordered Structure—Aς = 9 Tilt Boundary, Alexander H. King, M. H. Yoo
Slip, Twinning, And Fracture At A Grain Boundary In The L12 Ordered Structure—Aς = 9 Tilt Boundary, Alexander H. King, M. H. Yoo
Alexander H. King
The role of interaction between slip dislocations and a Σ = 9 tilt boundary in localized microplastic deformation, cleavage, or intergranular fracture in the Li2 ordered structure has been analyzed by using the anisotropic elasticity theory of dislocations and fracture. Screw superpartials cross slip easily at the boundary onto the (1$\overline 1$1) and the (001) planes at low and high temperatures, respectively. Transmission of primary slip dislocations onto the conjugate slip system occurs with a certain degree of difficulty, which is eased by localized disordering. When the transmission is impeded, cleavage fracture on the ($\overline 1$11) plane is predicted to …

We have demonstrated that a wide variety of pentacoordinate silicon anions (siliconates) should be stable and can be prepared by combining the predictive powers of MNDO and ab initio computational methods and the flowing afterglow (FA) experimental technique. MNDO has been used to compute the anion affinities of 91 siliconates; all but five of these are predicted to be stable with respect to the loss of an anion. Twenty-four siliconates, most of them previously unreported, have been prepared and studied in the FA. The MNDO predictions were, in general, consistent with the experimental results and with trends previously reported by …

Determination of the electrical characteristics of an electrolyte is vitally important to the design of battery materials and sensors. A wide variety of parameters are available from both dc and ac measurements. Through the use of computer control and a custom multiplexor, we can perform dc polarization and ac impedance measurements on a sample, without replacing electrodes.
