We have used density functional theory (DFT) to determine binding energies (BE’s) of carbon-vacancy (C-v) point-defect complexes of probable importance to C-based anelastic relaxation processes in fcc iron alloys. Calculations are presented for three types of stable point defect clusters: C-v pairs, di-C-v triplets, and tri-C-v quadruplets. We demonstrate semi-quantitative consistency of the calculated BE’s with internal friction results on Fe-36%Ni-C alloys. The BE’s, which are in the range-0.37 eV to-0.64 eV, were determined for a hypothetical non-magnetic (NM) fcc Fe. The effect of the magnetic state of fcc Fe on some of these quantities was investigated by DFT and is shown to be significant; the BE’s appear to be reduced in antiferromagnetic (AFM) fcc Fe.

AbstractPhotoluminescence measurements have been made on plastically formed silicon, free from metal contamination, with dislocation densities in the range 104-108cm-2. Only after deliberate contamination with Cu, Fe or Ni were the dislocation related D-bands the dominant spectral features observed. TEM analysis has revealed that there are no differences in the dislocation structures before and after contamination and that there is no evidence for precipitation on the dislocations or in their strain fields. The D-band features may, therefore, be due to impurities (metal atoms or point defect complexes) trapped in the strain fields of the dislocations.
