The interaction between interstitial oxygen atoms and <a>-type screw dislocations was investigated via first-principles calculations to elucidate the effect of oxygen solutes on the deformation behaviors of Mg. The results show that repulsive interactions exist between basal screw dislocation cores and oxygen atoms, which would enable the full basal dislocation to bypass the oxygen atoms in the dislocation glide plane through the cross-slip process. This repulsion also increases the resistance to the motion of dissociated basal dislocations. Moreover, the energy of prismatic <a>-type screw dislocation cores is reduced by the presence of oxygen, which would stabilize the screw dislocation core on the prismatic plane, accordingly facilitating the prismatic slip. This information can complement the fundamental knowledge of alloying Mg using interstitial solutes.

We have investigated the effect of impurity X (X = C and O) atoms on the behavior of hydrogen in vanadium, which is an ideal structural material for nuclear fusion reactors, by first-principles calculations. We found that (1) in bulk V, the interaction between an interstitial H atom and an X atom is repulsive, and the interaction with O is much stronger than that with C. (2) The X–vacancy (vac) cluster can act as a center for capturing H in V. The C-vac cluster can trap as many as two H atoms, while the O–vac cluster can capture up to four H atoms. (3) C and O impurities can effectively decrease the trapping energy of a single H atom in a vacancy. The H-trapping energies in the C–vac and O–vac complexes are 0.88 eV and 0.46 eV, respectively, both of which are lower than those in the X-free vacancy. (4) Both H–X and X-metal interactions affect the H solubility in V. The above results provide important information for application of vanadium as a structural material for nuclear fusion tokamaks.
