Although the criterion for deformation twin growth is not entirely understood, it is a tip-controlled phenomenon linked to the interaction between the residual and mobile twin partials at the twin interface; thermodynamically, this involves the elastic energy of the strained lattice, the interface and volume free-energy of the twin, and the ...
A twin boundary is a defect that introduces a plane of mirror symmetry in the ordering of a crystal. For example, in cubic close-packed crystals, the stacking sequence of a twin boundary would be ABCABCBACBA. On planes of single crystals, steps between atomically flat terraces can also be regarded as planar defects.
In materials science, a grain boundary is the interface between two grains, or crystallites, in a polycrystalline material. Grain boundaries are two-dimensional defects in the crystal structure , and tend to decrease the electrical and thermal conductivity of the material.
On either side of this domain, the lattice is still perfect, and the boundaries of the domain are referred to as antiphase boundaries. [1] Crucially, crystals on either side of an antiphase boundary are related by a translation, rather than a reflection (a crystal twin) or an inversion (an inversion domain).
Depending upon the relative energies of {111} and {110} facets, the shape can range from an icosahedron (on the left of the figure) with small dents at the five-fold axes (due to the twin boundary energy) when {111} is significantly lower in energy, to (going to the right in the figure) a truncated icosahedron or a Icosidodecahedron when the ...
Among the grain boundaries, it is known that the twin boundaries, a special type of low-energy grain boundary has lower interaction energy with dislocation leading to much smaller saturation size of the grain. [13] The cryogenic dynamic plastic deformation creates higher fraction of the twin boundaries compared to the severe plastic deformation.
