The Difference

ABSTRACTGrain boundaries in polycrystalline silicon are most likely to generate localized states in band gap. The localized states play a dominant role in determining the performance of solar cells by acting as traps or recombination center of carriers. In the present investigation, the scanning electron microscope - electron channeling pattern(SEM/ECP) method and SEM - electron back scattered diffraction pattern(SEM/EBSD) technique were applied to characterize the grain boundaries in p-type polycrystalline silicon with 99.999%(5N) in purity. Thereafter, temperature dependence of electrical activity of individual grain boundaries was measured by an electron beam induced current(EBIC) technique.It has been found that temperature dependence of EBIC contrast at grain boundaries can change, depending on the misorientation angle the orientation of the boundary plane. The results can be explained by the difference in the position of the localized state within the band gap on the basis of the Shockley-Read-Hall statistics. The {111} ∑3 symmetrical tilt boundary has shallow states, while high ∑ boundaries have deep states. Low angle boundaries reveal high electrical activities. The EBIC contrast at low angle boundaries was found to increase with increasing misorientation angle up to 2° followed by an almost constant value. High electrical activity at low angle boundaries is probably attributed to a stress field of primary dislocations forming low angle boundaries.

Recent research on grain boundary migration is reviewed. Novel in-situ measuring techniques based on orientation contrast imaging and the experimental results obtained on specially grown bicrystals are presented. Particularly, the investigated faceting and migration behavior of low angle grain boundaries under the curvature force in aluminum bicrystals was addressed. In contrast to the pure tilt boundaries, which remained straight/flat and immobile during annealing at elevated temperatures, mixed tilt-twist boundaries readily assumed a curved shape and steadily moved under the capillary force. Computational analysis revealed that this behavior is due to the inclinational anisotropy of grain boundary energy, which in turn depends on boundary geometry. The migration of planar grain boundaries induced by a magnetic field was measured in bismuth and zinc bicrystals. Various structurally different boundaries were investigated. The results revealed that grain boundary mobility essentially depends on the misorientation angle and the inclination of the boundary plane. Stress driven boundary migration in aluminium bicrystals was observed to be coupled to a tangential translation of the grains. The activation enthalpy of high angle boundary migration was found to vary non-monotonously with misorientation angle, whereas for low angle boundaries the migration activation enthalpy was virtually the same. The motion of the mixed tilt-twist boundaries under stress was observed to be accompanied by both the translation of adjacent grains parallel to the boundary plane and their rotation around the boundary plane normal.

ABSTRACTMagnetic domain structures in Fe-3wt%Si alloy have been observed by a Kerr microscopy to understand the interaction between the magnetic domain wall and grain boundaries. It was found that the domain structures in the vicinity of the grain boundary depend on the misorientation angle; the high angle random boundary disturbs the magnetic domain structure more than the low angle boundary. In addition to the misorientation angle, magnetic domain structures were affected by the inclination of the grain boundary plane. Moreover, dynamic observations of rearrangement of the magnetic domain structure during magnetization revealed that grain boundaries could act as the sink and/or the source for magnetic domains.

Secondary recrystallization Goss texture was efficiently achieved in rolled, binary Fe81Ga19 alloy sheets without the traditional dependence on inhibitors and the surface energy effect. The development of abnormal grain growth (AGG) of Goss grains was analyzed by quasi-situ electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD). The special primary recrystallization texture with strong {112}–{111}<110> and weak Goss texture provides the inherent pinning effect for normal grain growth by a large number of low angle grain boundaries (<15°) and very high angle grain boundaries (>45°) according to the calculation of misorientation angle distribution. The evolution of grain orientation and grain boundary characteristic indicates that the higher fraction of high energy grain boundaries (20–45°) around primary Goss grains supplies a relative advantage in grain boundary mobility from 950 °C to 1000 °C. The secondary recrystallization in binary Fe81Ga19 alloy is realized in terms of the controllable grain boundary mobility difference between Goss and matrix grains, coupled with the orientation and misorientation angle distribution of adjacent matrix grains.

Twist Boundaries

We investigated the relationship between the structure and misorientation angle of (001) twist grain boundaries in Bi2Sr2Ca1Cu2Oy/Ag composite tapes processed in different oxygen partial pressures (PO2 = 0.01, 0.21, and 1 atm). Large-angle misoriented twist boundaries (>10°) essentially had no amorphous layers at the interface, and the misorientation angles of these boundaries mostly corresponded to low-energy misorientations. This large-angle misoriented boundary structure was independent of PO2. Small-angle misoriented twist boundaries (<10°), on the other hand, corresponded to high-energy misorientations and sometimes had amorphous layers at the interface. The population of the small-angle boundary with an amorphous layer was very low in the tape processed in PO2 = 1 atm. This suggests that high PO2 during the heat treatment is effective in the improvement of grain coupling, and hence, to increase critical current density.
