Orientation Control in Epitaxial PdO Thin Films Grown on MgO (001) – Role of Oxygen Chemical Potential

Control of crystal orientations in thin films of functional materials allowsedictive tuning of their strain states, electronic properties, and surface chemical reactivity. Here, conditions for orientation control in epitaxial PdO films are investigated. Due to its tetragonal structure, PdO can form two orientational relationships with the MgO (001). It is shown that, under an oxygen-rich environment provided by oxygen-plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy, both (00l)- and (100)-oriented PdO domains form on MgO (001). Subsequent thermal annealing in a vacuum promotes film restructuring to a predominantly (100)-oriented PdO with improved crystallinity. Ab initio calculations reveal that the (001) orientation has lower strain energy but weaker interfacial interactions and serves as an oxygen vacancy sink, whereas the (100) orientation benefits from significantly stronger MgO─PdO bonding. Consequently (100)-oriented domains become favored under oxygen-poor conditions. A mechanism is proposed whereby vacuum annealing drives orientation transformation by generating oxygen vacancies that destabilize the (001) domains and promote (100) ordering. These findings deepen the understanding of how oxygen content impacts interfacial stability and reorganization, thereby offering a route to tune domain orientations in oxide thin films.

Automated Crystal Orientation Mapping in py4DSTEM using Sparse Correlation Matching

Crystalline materials used in technological applications are often complex assemblies composed of multiple phases and differently oriented grains. Robust identification of the phases and orientation relationships from these samples is crucial, but the information extracted from the diffraction condition probed by an electron beam is often incomplete. We have developed an automated crystal orientation mapping (ACOM) procedure which uses a converged electron probe to collect diffraction patterns from multiple locations across a complex sample. We provide an algorithm to determine the orientation of each diffraction pattern based on a fast sparse correlation method. We demonstrate the speed and accuracy of our method by indexing diffraction patterns generated using both kinematical and dynamical simulations. We have also measured orientation maps from an experimental dataset consisting of a complex polycrystalline twisted helical AuAgPd nanowire. From these maps we identify twin planes between adjacent grains, which may be responsible for the twisted helical structure. All of our methods are made freely available as open source code, including tutorials which can be easily adapted to perform ACOM measurements on diffraction pattern datasets.

Interface microstructure effects on dynamic failure behavior of layered Cu/Ta microstructures

Abstract Structural metallic materials with interfaces of immiscible materials provide opportunities to design and tailor the microstructures for desired mechanical behavior. Metallic microstructures with plasticity contributors of the FCC and BCC phases show significant promise for damage-tolerant applications due to their enhanced strengths and thermal stability. A fundamental understanding of the dynamic failure behavior is needed to design and tailor these microstructures with desired mechanical responses under extreme environments. This study uses molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to characterize plasticity contributors for various interface microstructures and the damage evolution behavior of FCC/BCC laminate microstructures. This study uses six model Cu/Ta interface systems with different orientation relationships that are as- created, and pre-deformed to understand the modifications in the plasticity contributions and the void nucleation/evolution behavior. The results suggest that pre-existing misfit dislocations and loading orientations (perpendicular to and parallel to the interface) affect the activation of primary and secondary slip systems. The dynamic strengths are observed to correlate with the energy of the interfaces, with the strengths being highest for low-energy interfaces and lowest for high-energy interfaces. However, the presence of pre-deformation of these interface microstructures affects not only the dynamic strength of the microstructures but also the correlation with interface energy.

Exploring the interfacial structure and crystallinity for direct growth of Mn 3 Sn(0001) on sapphire (0001) by molecular beam epitaxy

The Kagome antiferromagnet Mn 3 Sn has garnered a lot of attention due to the presence of interesting properties such as anomalous Hall effects and Nernst effects. Until now, few papers have been reported to grow using molecular beam epitaxy with a buffer layer or on other substrates. In this paper, we discuss the synthesis of crystalline Mn 3 Sn layers, prepared on Al 2 O 3 (0001) without a buffer layer using molecular beam epitaxy. The growth is monitored in-situ using reflection high energy electron diffraction and measured ex-situ using X-ray diffraction, Rutherford back-scattering, and cross-sectional scanning transmission electron microscopy. The samples were deposited at 524 ± 5 °C, with an Mn: Sn atomic flux ratio of 3.2:1 for 90 minutes. Orientation relationships between the Mn 3 Sn films and the sapphire substrates are determined from in-plane and out-of-plane measurements. Our analysis indicates that the resulting film is predominantly c−plane oriented. Lastly, the samples prepared in this way were found to be discontiguous, showing a 3-dimensional morphology. According to first-principles calculations, the Mn 3 Sn exhibits a displaced Kagome structure in the very first stages of growth, for 2ML and 4ML growth on Al 2 O 3 (0001). This result is corroborated by calculating the surface formation energies and explains the observed RHEED patterns.

A Record of Low-Temperature Asteroidal Processes of Amoeboid Olivine Aggregates from the Kainsaz Co3.2 Chondrite

Amoeboid olivine aggregates (AOAs) from the Kainsaz CO3.2 chondrite were analyzed using transmission electron microscopy in order to gain a more complete understanding of thermal metamorphism on the parent body and the role of fluids during metamorphic heating. The Kainsaz AOAs are dominated by strongly zoned, fine-grained, olivine grains (Fa2-31) with heterogeneous Fe enrichments along the grain boundaries, which are interpreted as the result of 26Fe2+-Mg2+ interdiffusion with the matrix during thermal metamorphism. However, our diffusion calculations show that such AOA olivine zoning and compositions cannot be produced by a simple diffusional exchange during metamorphic heating, unlike chondrule olivine zoning and compositions. In addition, fine-grained ferroan olivine overgrowths occur heterogeneously in crystallographic continuity with olivines on the AOA exteriors. The overgrowths (Fa33-36) are compositionally distinct from the underlying AOA olivines and are not fully equilibrated with the matrix olivines (Fa~20-55).The ferroan olivine overgrowths likely formed by precipitation from fluids in an epitaxial relationship with forsteritic olivine on the edges of AOAs. Texturally and compositionally diverse chromite grains are also observed along olivine grain boundaries, in olivine grains, and in pore spaces between olivine grains. They share a similar crystallographic orientation relationships with adjacent olivine, suggestive of their formation by exsolution and/or epitaxial growth. Collectively, these observations provide evidence for the mobilization of Fe, Mg, Si, Cr, and Al in the presence of fluids along olivine grain boundaries and into olivine grains during thermal metamorphism. We conclude that in Kainsaz AOAs, the strong zonation development in individual olivine grains and the formation of ferroan olivine overgrowths and chromite grains were a fluid-driven process that occurred at relatively low temperatures (<500°C), during the cooling history of the CO3 chondrite parent body, following the peak of thermal metamorphism.

Thermomechanical Microstructural Predictions of Fracture Nucleation of Zircaloy-4 Alloys With δ and ε Hydride Distributions

Abstract A crystalline dislocation-density formulation that was incorporated with a nonlinear finite-element (FE) method was utilized to understand and to predict the thermomechanical behavior of an hexagonal closest packed (h.c.p.) zircaloy system with hydrides with either face-centered cubic (f.c.c.) or body-centered cubic (b.c.c.) hydrides. This formulation was then used with a recently developed fracture methodology that is adapted for finite inelastic strains and multiphase crystalline systems to understand how different microstructurally based fracture modes nucleate and propagate. The interrelated microstructural characteristics of the different crystalline hydride and matrix phases with the necessary orientation relationships (ORs) have been represented, such that a detailed physical understanding of fracture nucleation and propagation can be predicted for the simultaneous thermomechanical failure modes of hydride populations and the matrix. The effects of volume fraction, morphology, crystalline structure, and orientation and distribution of the hydrides on simultaneous and multiple fracture modes were investigated for radial, circumferential, and mixed distributions. Another key aspect was accounting for temperatures changes due to the effects of thermal conduction and dissipated plastic work and their collective effects on fracture. For hydrided aggregates subjected to high temperatures, thermal softening resulted in higher ductility due to increased dislocation-density activity, which led to higher shear strain accumulation and inhibited crack nucleation and growth. The predictions provide validated insights into why circumferential hydrides are more fracture-resistant than radial hydrides for different volume fractions and thermomechanical loading conditions.

Dual Atomic Coherence in the Self-Assembly of Patchy Heterostructural Nanocrystals

Advances in the synthesis and self-assembly of nanocrystals have enabled researchers to create a plethora of different nanoparticle superlattices. But while many super lattices with complex types of translational order have been realized, rotational order of nanoparticle building blocks within the lattice is more difficult to achieve. Self-assembled superstructures with atomically coherent nanocrystal lattices, which are desirable due to their exceptional electronic and optical properties, have been fabricated only for a few selected systems. Here, we combine experiments with molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to study the self-assembly of heterostructural nanocrystals (HNCs), consisting of a near-spherical quantum dot (QD) host decorated with a small number of epitaxially grown gold nanocrystal (Au NC) "patches ". Self-assembly of these HNCs results in face-centered-cubic (fcc) superlattices with well-defined orientational relationships between the atomic lattices of both QD hosts and Au patches. MD simulations indicate that the observed dual atomic coherence is linked to the number, size, and relative positions of gold patches. Here this study provides a strategy for the design and fabrication of NC superlattices with large structural complexity and delicate orientational order.

Twinning microstructure in the solid-phase epitaxial crystallization of BaTiO 3

Amorphous BaTiO 3 layers deposited on SrTiO 3 (001) substrates at room temperature were subsequently crystallized using solid phase epitaxy (SPE). Heating an initially amorphous BaTiO 3 layer in air at 650 °C for 3 h resulted in crystallization with components in two distinct crystallographic orientation relationships with respect to the substrate. Part of the volume of the BaTiO 3 layer crystallized in a cube-on-cube relationship with the substrate. Other volumes crystallized in four variants of a 70.5° rotation about $\langle$110$\rangle$, resulting in a $\langle$221$\rangle$ surface normal in each case. Each of these four variants forms a Σ = 3 coincident site lattice with respect to the SrTiO 3 substrate and the cube-on-cube oriented BaTiO 3 . Heating for the same duration and temperature in a reducing gas atmosphere resulted in the formation of polycrystalline BaTiO 3 with no preferred crystallographic orientation. The dependence on the gas atmosphere indicates that it may be possible to tune the annealing time, temperature, and atmosphere to produce a single crystalline BTO on STO by SPE or produce a desired distribution of orientations.

Structural relationships between the T and O phases in Ti-24Al-11Nb

TEM and electron diffraction are presently used to characterize the structural relationships between the ordered tetragonal (T) and ordered orthorhombic (O) phases of a rapidly solidified Ti-24Al-11Nb alloy. It is established that the transition from the T to the O phase is explainable in terms of a shape-deformation mechanism, and that the T/O interface (habit) plane approximates -2 2 3 sub T. Attention is given to the orientation relationships between the two phases.

Two-step deformation-induced martensitic transformation in additively manufactured High-Si stainless steel

Deformation-induced phase transformation in the additively manufactured (AM) Fe–18Cr–8Ni-5.5Si (in wt.%) alloy was analyzed using the in-situ electron backscattered diffraction (EBSD) record during uniaxial tensile testing in a scanning electron microscope (SEM). Analysis of EBSD data was focused to investigate phase transformation behavior during deformation with consideration of mechanical interactions among phases and grains in the ultrafine AM microstructure. The initial EBSD phase map illustrated that the as-built microstructure was a duplex structure consisting of major austenite (γ) and minor ferrite phases, some of which showed non-traditional orientation relationship since the rapid solidification in the AM process has produced non-equilibrium state in phase formation. In the deformed as-built AM alloy, the two-step martensitic transformation (γ→ε→α´) was identified as the main deformation-induced transformation mechanism. Martensitic transformation steps were found to be associated with glides of Shockley partial dislocations on closed packed (111) planes under the influence of atomic disturbance in the γ and ε phases, respectively. Using the closed-packed plane pole figures and unit cell orientations, their evolutions and mechanisms accompanying with the transformation were analyzed. Finally, the results indicate that one variant of ε-martensite forms from their parent γ phase, while two variants of α´ form from their parent ε phase.

Correlating Crystallographic Orientation and Ferroic Properties of Twin Domains in Metal Halide Perovskites

Metal halide perovskite (MHP) solar cells have attracted worldwide research interest. Although it has been well established that grain, grain boundary, and grain facet affect MHPs optoelectronic properties, less is known about subgrain structures. Recently, MHP twin stripes, a subgrain feature, have stimulated extensive discussion due to the potential for both beneficial and detrimental effects of ferroelectricity on optoelectronic properties. Furthermore, connecting the ferroic behavior of twin stripes in MHPs with crystal orientation will be a vital step to understand the ferroic nature and the effects of twin stripes. In this work, we studied the crystallographic orientation and ferroic properties of CH 3 NH 3 PbI 3 twin stripes, using electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) and advanced piezoresponse force microscopy (PFM), respectively. Using EBSD, we discovered that the orientation relationship across the twin walls in CH 3 NH 3 PbI 3 is a 90° rotation about ($\bar{11}0$), with the (030) and (111) directions parallel to the direction normal to the surface. By careful inspection of CH 3 NH 3 PbI 3 PFM results including in-plane and out-of-plane PFM measurements, we demonstrate some nonferroelectric contributions to the PFM responses of this CH 3 NH 3 PbI 3 sample, suggesting that the PFM signal in this CH 3 NH 3 PbI 3 sample is affected by nonferroelectric and nonpiezoelectric forces. If there is piezoelectric response, it is below the detection sensitivity of our interferometric displacement sensor PFM (<0.615 pm/V). Overall, this work offers an integrated picture describing the crystallographic orientations and the origin of PFM signal of MHPs twin stripes, which is critical to understanding the ferroicity in MHPs.

Formation of pyrophosphates across grain boundaries induces the formation of mismatched but oriented interfaces in silver phosphate polypods

The interfaces and their misfit defects determine the materials properties for a wide range of applications, such as electronic devices, photocatalysis, and mechanical engineering, etc. However, current understanding of atomic interfacial structures is limited. Here we discover a special interfacial structure, mismatched but oriented interface via two distinct facets. Transmission and scanning electron microscopy results suggest that, in Ag 3 PO 4 polypods structures, interfaces of {1 0 0} and {1 1 0}, ({1 0 0}/(1 1 0}), {1 0 0}/{1 1 1}, {1 1 0}/{1 1 1}, and {1 0 0}/{1 0 0}, etc., have a certain orientation relationship, corresponding to the energy minima and coincident site lattice of interfacial atoms as demonstrated by molecular dynamics simulations. Density functional theory demonstrates that the formation of pyrophosphate and/or phosphates rotation to bond across the interface compensate the lattice mismatch at the interfaces, as well as deformations of Ag-O bonds. Furthermore, our work opens up a new avenue for a much wider range of interfacial structures, allow for a higher diversity of structures, and shine light on tailoring crystal structures, morphologies, and the resulting properties.

A method for crystallographic mapping of an alpha-beta titanium alloy with nanometre resolution using scanning precession electron diffraction and open-source software libraries

An approach for the crystallographic mapping of two-phase alloys on the nanoscale using a combination of scanned precession electron diffraction and open-source python libraries is introduced in this paper. This method is demonstrated using the example of a two-phase α/β titanium alloy. The data were recorded using a direct electron detector to collect the patterns, and recently developed algorithms to perform automated indexing and analyse the crystallography from the results. Very high-quality mapping is achieved at a 3 nm step size. The results show the expected Burgers orientation relationships between the α laths and β matrix, as well as the expected misorientations between α laths. A minor issue was found that one area was affected by 180° ambiguities in indexing occur due to this area being aligned too close to a zone axis of the α with twofold projection symmetry (not present in 3D) in the zero-order Laue Zone, and this should be avoided in data acquisition in the future. Nevertheless, this study demonstrates a good workflow for the analysis of nanocrystalline two- or multi-phase materials, which will be of widespread use in analysing two-phase titanium and other systems and how they evolve as a function of thermomechanical treatments.

Irradiation-Induced Extremes Create Hierarchical Face-/Body-Centered-Cubic Phases in Nanostructured High Entropy Alloys

A nanoscale hierarchical dual-phase structure is reported to form in a nanocrystalline NiFeCoCrCu high-entropy-alloy (HEA) film via ion irradiation. Under the extreme energy deposition and consequent thermal energy dissipation induced by energetic particles, a fundamentally new phenomenon is revealed, in which the original single-phase face-centered-cubic (FCC) structure partially transforms into alternating nanometer layers of a body-centered-cubic (BCC) structure. The orientation relationship follows the Nishiyama–Wasser-man relationship, that is, (011) BCC || (1¯1¯1) FCC and [100] BCC || [11¯0] FCC . Simulation results indicate that Cr, as a BCC stabilizing element, exhibits a tendency to segregate to the stacking faults (SFs). Furthermore, the high densities of SFs and twin boundaries in each nanocrystalline grain serve to accelerate the nucleation and growth of the BCC phase during irradiation. By adjusting the irradiation parameters, desired thicknesses of the FCC and BCC phases in the laminates can be achieved. Finally, this work demonstrates the controlled formation of an attractive dual-phase nanolaminate structure under ion irradiation and provides a strategy for designing new derivate structures of HEAs.

Atomistic modeling of interface strengthening in Al-Si eutectic alloys

Al-Si cast alloys are usually composed of α-Al and Al-Si eutectic. Si flakes and Al matrix generally hold cube-on-cube orientation relationship with the primary interface (111) Al ∥(111) Si . Extensive experimental studies demonstrated that Si flakes cannot significantly improve mechanical properties of Al-Si cast alloys. We hypothesize that the weak strengthening effect associated with Si flakes might be attributed to thermomechanical properties of Al-Si interfaces besides their morphologies. To characterize Al-Si interfaces with a large lattice mismatch (> 30%), we proposed the quasi-coincident site lattice (Q-CSL) as reference lattice, and demonstrated that the Q-CSL Al-Si coherent interface has three characteristic coherent structures, one stable and low energy structure and two metastable and high energy structures. The translation vectors for the same type of coherent Q-CSL structures are consistent with three displacement shift complete (DSC) vectors. The two metastable structures can be obtained by shifting the low energy structure with three partial DSC vectors. Semi-coherent interface is composed of the low energy Q-CSL patches and three sets of interface misfit dislocations with Burgers vectors same as the DSC vectors. Atomistic simulations revealed that Al-Si interface exhibits low shear resistance. Ideal shear strength of the Q-CSL coherent interface is 110 MPa and semi-coherent interface is 20 MPa. The low shear resistance is attributed to the glide of interface misfit dislocations. Al-Si interface also exhibits low formation and migration energies of point defects. Owing to low shear strength and low formation and migration energies of point defects, interface sliding or shear readily happen under mechanical loading or during dislocation-interface interactions. Lattice dislocations can cross slip onto or climb along Al-Si interfaces. These reactions decrease the number of accumulated dislocation loops around Si flakes and promote nucleation and emission of lattice dislocations from Al-Si interfaces to matrix, consequently reduce the repulsive force on approaching dislocations and weaken Si flakes strengthening effect. In situ tension and compression tests in a scanning electron microscope reveal relatively weak strengthening effect due to Si flakes, consistent with the computed dislocation interaction with interfaces and shear behavior of interfaces.

Atomistic modeling of metal–nonmetal interphase boundary diffusion

Atomistic computer simulations are applied to investigate the atomic structure, thermal stability, and diffusion processes in Al–Si interphase boundaries as a prototype of metal–ceramic interfaces in composite materials. Some of the most stable orientation relationships between the phases found in this work were previously observed in epitaxy experiments. Here, a non-equilibrium interface can transform to a more stable state by a mechanism that we call interface-induced recrystallization. Diffusion of both Al and Si atoms in stable Al–Si interfaces is surprisingly slow compared with diffusion of both elements in Al grain boundaries but can be accelerated in the presence of interface disconnections. A qualitative explanation of the sluggish interphase boundary diffusion is proposed. Atomic mechanisms of interphase boundary diffusion are similar to those in metallic grain boundaries and are dominated by correlated atomic rearrangements in the form of strings and rings of collectively moving atoms.

Deformation and fracture behavior of a laser powder bed fusion processed stainless steel: In situ synchrotron x-ray computed microtomography study

Tensile plastic deformation and fracture behavior of a laser powder bed fusion processed 316L stainless steel alloy was investigated in situ using high-resolution synchrotron x-ray computed microtomography (sXCT). Three different cases were studied: (1) specimen A1, near full-density with initial porosity of 0.04%, (2) specimen B1, initial lack-of-fusion (LOF) porosity of about 3% with the major axis of defects aligned nearly perpendicular to the tensile loading direction (LD), and (3) specimen B, similar to B1 but with the major axis of LOF defects aligned nearly parallel to LD. The effects of type, density, and orientation of defects in as-printed samples on plastic deformation and failure modes were studied by analyzing sXCT image sequences and quantitative defect properties. Specifically, the evolutions of porosity, size, aspect ratio, and angle of gas pores and LOF defects were characterized as a function of applied strain. Moreover, interactions between as-printed defects and deformation-induced crack propagation were investigated. The tensile behavior of specimen A1 was comparable to that of a commercial wrought plate. Furthermore, the quantitative in-situ sXCT results showed a void-growth phenomenon in A1 but without noticeable coalescence, resulting in a ductile cup-cone failure. Specimen B1 showed damage-driven brittle failure with limited plasticity due to early and rapid propagation of open voids. On the other hand, specimen B, with a similar amount of LOF defects as B1, showed deceivingly strong and ductile tensile behavior similar to A1 without any major crack propagations due to the favorable orientation relationship between LOF defects and the LD.

Solidification texture, variant selection, and phase fraction in a spot-melt electron-beam powder bed fusion processed Ti-6Al-4V

The effect of a spot melt strategy on the solidification texture, variant selection, phase fraction, and their variations along the build height was investigated in comparison to a conventional linear melt strategy. Ti-6Al-4V alloy samples were manufactured by an electron-beam powder bed fusion process using two different melt strategies and characterized using high-energy synchrotron x-ray diffraction. The linear and spot melt cases resulted in β<100> cube and fiber textures, respectively, with the cube/fiber axis nearly parallel to the build direction. The α phase exhibited Burgers orientation relationship (BOR) with the parent β phase for both melt strategies. Although all of the key texture components and the BOR between the α and β phases were consistently observed in both cases along the build height, there were several measurable differences between the two. At the top of the build height, the β<100> build texture intensity was stronger in the linear case. However, the texture intensity in the linear case decreased gradually from the top to near the substrate, whereas the spot melt case did not show this trend. Moreover, the BOR was examined along the build height and the results showed that there is a distinct variant selection in the spot melt case, unlike the linear case. Specifically, the planar variants sharing ($\bar101$) β || (0002) α with [$\bar2\bar2\bar2$]β and [$2\bar22$]β were the most prominent in the spot melt, but no preference was identified in the directional variants. The β phase fraction was slightly lower in the spot melt case compared to the linear case. In both the cases, the β phase fraction decreased moving towards the substrate but remained significantly higher than that of the powder feedstock. Overall, the novel spot melt strategy produced a more homogeneous microstructure in terms of both the phase fraction and texture across the build height.
