AbstractWe discuss the underlying atomistic mechanism for experimentally observed large tensile ductility in various strongly ordered B2 intermetallic compounds. First-principles calculations demonstrate that all of the compounds exhibit little energy differences between the B2, B27 and B33 phases. These calculations relate observations of ductility in YAg, YCu and ZrCo to shape-memory materials including NiTi. One transformation pathway between the B2 and B33 phases establishes a connection between this phase competition, and stacking faults on the {011}B2 plane. The low energy of such a stacking fault will lead to splitting of the b=<100> dislocations into b/2 partials, observed in ZrCo, TiCo, and in the B19' phase of NiTi. Calculations demonstrate that this pathway is competitive with the traditional pathway for NiTi.

AbstractShockley-type Stacking faults (SSF) in hexagonal Silicon Carbide polytypes have received considerable attention in recent years since it has been found that these defects are responsible for the degradation of forward I-V characteristics in p-i-n diodes. In order to extend the knowledge on these kind of defects and theoretically support experimental findings (specifically, photoluminescence spectral analysis), we have determined the Kohn-Sham electronic band structures, along the closed path Γ-M-K-Γ, using density functional theory. We have also determined the energies of the SSFs with respect to the perfect crystal finding that the (35) and (44) SSFs have unexpectedly low formation energies, for this reason we could expect these two defects to be easily generated/expanded either during the growth or post-growth process steps.

Effect Of Alloying

AbstractThe effect of alloying elements Ta, Mo, W, Cr, Re, Ru, Co, and Ir on the elastic properties of both γ-Ni and γ′-Ni3Al is studied by first-principles method. Results for lattice properties, elastic moduli and the ductile/brittle behaviors are all presented. Our calculated values agree well with the existing experimental observations. Results show all the additions decrease the lattice misfit between and γ′ phases. Different alloying elements are found to have different effect on the elastic moduli of γ-Ni. Whereas all the alloying elements slightly increase the moduli of γ′-Ni3Al expect Co. Both of the two phases are becoming more brittle with alloying elements, but Co is excepted. The electronic structures of γ′ phase alloyed with different elements are provided as example to elucidate the different strengthening mechanisms.

ABSTRACTA detailed understanding of planar defects plays an important role in the search for a comprehensive description of the mechanical behaviour of metals and alloys. We present calculations for isolated stacking faults and grain boundaries using the layer Korringa-Kohn-Rostoker method including an assessment of the force theorem, which has already proven itself in evaluating defect energies for elemental close-packed metals. These ab initio total energy calculations will be supplemented by a study of the changes in bonding and local magnetic properties near a symmetric Σ5 (310) grain boundary in Fe
