Polycrystalline materials with crystallite diameters below hundred nanometer exhibit extraordinary strength which goes along with a decrease in ductility. In order to tailor tough materials, which combine strength and ductility, the underlying deformation ...
Body-centered cubic metals are of high technological interest: for example tungsten as potential plasma facing component in future fusion reactors, molybdenum employed in aircraft parts, niobium as superconducting magnets, etc. The characteristics of their ...
Degradation of mechanical properties due to nanometric irradiation induced defects is one of the challenging issues in designing ferritic materials for future nuclear fusion reactors. Various types of defects, namely dislocation loops, voids, He bubbles an ...
Gallium nitride (GaN) is one of the most interesting materials for devices applications such as blue light emitting diodes, laser diodes and high power and high temperature electronic applications, because of its large band gap (3.39 eV). Several growth te ...
The gamma surfaces in the pyramidal I {1 -1 0 1} and II {1 1 -2 2} planes for hexagonal close packed Mg have been calculated using two embedded-atom-method potentials and by ab initio methods, and reasonable agreement is obtained for key stacking fault ene ...
Evidence of composition fluctuations around threading dislocations at scales ranging from atomic distances to tens of nanometers is provided by z-contrast imaging, strain measurement, and energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy in AlxIn1-x N/GaN heterostructu ...
Non-polar a-GaN films grown on r-sapphire by hydride vapor phase epitaxy (HVPE) are studied using transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Despite the small lattice mismatch in a-GaN ([1 0 (1) over bar 0] similar to 1.1% and [0 00 1] similar to 16%), high d ...
Multiscale modeling, including molecular dynamics (MD) and discrete dislocation dynamics (DDD) methods, appears as a significant tool for the description of plasticity and mechanical properties of materials. This research concerns the influence of irradiatio ...
The interaction of dislocations with grain boundaries (GBs) determines a number of important aspects of the mechanical performance of materials, including strengthening and fatigue resistance. Here, the coupled atomistic/discretedislocation ( CADD) multisc ...
