This lecture by the instructor covers topics related to solid-solid interfaces, focusing on grain boundaries and surface energy. The discussion includes the angle between crystallographic axes, grain boundary planes, tilt boundaries, dislocations, and the estimation of grain boundary energy. Additionally, the lecture explores the parameters needed to describe the geometry of a grain boundary, the balance between surface energy and grain boundary energy, and the formation of micelles in different packing arrangements.
