Micromechanical and fatigue in situ synchrotron characterization of an additively manufactured superalloy with porosity

Additive manufacturing (AM) has the potential to transform component production, but its widespread adoption is constrained by defects, such as pores, that compromise structural integrity. Here, this study investigates the influence of porosity on the micromechanical and fatigue response of AM Inconel 718 (IN718), a widely used aerospace superalloy. One baseline specimen with minimal stochastic porosity and another intentionally seeded with lack of fusion (LOF) pores were examined using high-energy X-ray diffraction microscopy (HEDM) and micro-computed tomography during cyclic loading. Fatigue cracks in the LOF specimen initiated more frequently and at lower cycle counts than in the baseline specimen. The number fraction of fatigue cracks that grew was comparatively higher in the LOF specimen. Grain-level metrics, including stress and diffraction spot widths, were quantified using far-field HEDM. Across the thousands of grains detected in both specimens, the pores in the LOF specimen increased the variability of stress and spot width evolution in the azimuthal direction, the latter serving as a surrogate measure of plastic deformation. However, no correlations emerged between these metrics and grain proximity to fatigue crack initiation sites or pores, underscoring the limitations of grain-averaged metrics for predicting fatigue. Nonetheless, the rich dataset reported here provides a foundation for future modeling efforts.

Postirradiation Examination of HFIR-Irradiated Yttrium Hydrides

The US Department of Energy Microreactor Program is developing compact, high-temperature microreactors that require robust neutron moderators. Known for its high hydrogen retention and structural stability, YH x is a leading candidate for this purpose. As part of an ongoing evaluation, Oak Ridge National Laboratory conducted post-irradiation examinations on YH x specimens irradiated in the High Flux Isotope Reactor under the legacy Transformational Challenge Reactor program, focusing on their structural integrity, hydrogen retention, and thermal properties. The post-irradiation examination campaign primarily examined specimens from two irradiation campaigns, covering a range of hydrogen-to-yttrium atomic ratios (H/Y), neutron damage levels (0.1–2 displacements per atom), and targeted irradiation temperature of 600°C. The investigations included electron microscopy, high-energy x-ray diffraction, laser flash analysis, differential scanning calorimetry, and SiC thermometry analysis.

The Molecular Structures of Liquid and Glassy Nifedipine and Felodipine and Their Incorporation into PVP

Background: Amorphous drug formulations are commonly used to improve the solubility and bioavailability of poorly soluble molecular pharmaceuticals, yet less is known about their molecular conformations and local bonding interactions than their crystalline phases. Methods: High-energy X-ray diffraction structure factor measurements have been made on liquid and glassy nifedipine (NIF), felodipine (FEL), NIF 1:3 polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), and FEL 1:3 PVP wt.% mixtures. The corresponding X-ray pair distribution functions have been interpreted using empirical potential structure refinement using different models and density functional theory conformer calculations. Results: In both NIF and FEL, the NH···O inter-molecular hydrogen bonds between the pyridyl nitrogen and ester carbonyls are found to be considerably weaker than those observed in the crystalline polymorphs. For nifedipine, it is proposed that either inter-molecular NH…ON nitro bonds are present and/or a fraction (<20%) of conformational changes, with the aryl ring flipped, occur in the liquid state. For felodipine, the models indicate significant disorder associated with the methyl and ethyl side chains in the liquid state, with the main peak intensity at 3.0 Å arising from intra-molecular Cl-Cl atom pairs. When nifedipine molecules are incorporated into PVP, our models show they possess stronger NH···O bonds to the PVP polymer than felodipine molecules, which have stronger affinity for bonding to the polymer than to other felodipine molecules. Conclusions: The amorphous forms of both NIF and FEL show much weaker hydrogen bonding than found in their crystalline phases. Liquid NIF also exhibits configurations which are not observed in the crystal phases.

Informed unsupervised machine learning analysis of dislocation microstructure from high-resolution differential aperture X-ray structural microscopy data

This study leverages high-resolution differential-aperture X-ray structural microscopy (DAXM) to probe the local dislocation structure in deformed 304L-stainless steel at small strain, by measuring the lattice rotation and deviatoric elastic strain with a sub-micron resolution. For a single grain in a polycrystalline specimen, the measured lattice rotation field over the measured volume exhibited a multimodal distribution while the deviatoric elastic strain showed a single-mode distribution. An unsupervised Cauchy mixture machine learning model was developed to resolve the multimodal distribution of the lattice rotation. By mapping the lattice rotation data associated with each Cauchy peak in the model back onto the measured volume, we identify contiguous regions of the crystal rotated near the average values corresponding to the peaks of the overall rotation distribution. These regions represent the grain subdivision in the microstructure. Finally, the dislocation density tensor was also computed and its norm was laid over the rotation field to detect the subgrain boundaries. This step provided a validation of the Cauchy mixture model for the analysis of the lattice rotation distribution. The current study highlights the integration of advanced X-ray microscopy techniques with data-driven analysis methods to uncover detailed microstructure scales in deformed crystals.

Fragile-to-strong transition in liquid As 2 S 3 under pressure: The effect of melt metallization

The well-known classification of glass-forming melts into fragile and strong liquids has several notable exceptions, including water, silica, and certain phase-change materials (PCMs). These exceptional fluid systems exhibit a fragile-to-strong transition (FST) upon cooling: a transformation from a high-temperature liquid with fast atomic dynamics, low viscosity, and low flow activation energy, to a viscous supercooled melt with high energy barriers near the glass transition temperature T g . This behavior is critically important for non-volatile memories, photonic tensor cores, reconfigurable metamaterials, and other devices, that use PCMs, enabling nanosecond-scale crystallization in the fragile regime and long data retention in the strong regime near or below T g . A significant structural transformation is expected between these two viscosity regimes, along with a semiconductor-metal (SC-M) transition upon heating, driven by high internal pressure and associated density increase. By applying high external pressure to the canonical low-conducting chalcogenide melt As 2 S 3 , we observed both the FST and the SC-M transition, occurring simultaneously within the same domain of the P, T−phase space. These findings suggest that the FST is not limited to a few exceptional liquids but is a common phenomenon, at least in systems that exhibit melt metallization within specific regions of their P, T−phase diagrams.

High energy X-ray characterization of the microstructure of PuGa alloy samples at macroscopic depths and non-ambient conditions

High energy (95 keV) X-rays were utilized to characterize the microstructure of eight PuGa alloy samples at room temperature and during cooling to ∼10 K. The samples had different Ga content (nominally 0-3.4 at.%), age, and history. A ninth sample, similarly characterized with neutron diffraction, was included to extend the Ga range to 7 at.%. The samples span the range from single phase α (monoclinic) to δ (face-centered cubic) PuGa, as well as a two-phase α′/δ sample. The crystallographic textures, phase fractions, lattice parameters and dislocation densities of each sample were evaluated through distinct analysis techniques. The textures of the samples were modest. In each case, the dislocation densities were relatively high, comparable to cold worked metals and metals exposed to similar radiation dose. At room temperature, the lattice parameters determined in the predominantly single-phase samples were larger than expected based on the nominal Ga concentration. The observed lattice thermal expansions of the single-phase δ samples to 10 K are self-consistent across the samples and consistent with previous measurements reported in the literature. Significantly larger thermal lattice strain is observed in the δ phase of the two-phase material due to mechanical constraint from the α′ phase, which has a three times larger thermal expansion and is much harder than the δ phase. In conclusion, the results demonstrate the unique value of high-energy X-rays for relatively routine microstructural characterization of Pu alloy samples.

Dynamics and Structure of Molten Neodymium Titanate

Binary rare earth titanates can be vitrified using levitation melt quenching, and their glasses are promising for optical applications. To better understand their thermophysical properties and dynamics, we have used molecular dynamics (MD) and empirical potential structure refinement (EPSR) to simulate molten neodymium titanate, 83TiO 2 –17Nd 2 O 3 . The models are compared with high-energy synchrotron X-ray diffraction of the melt structure over 1060–1960 K and thermophysical property measurements of electrostatically levitated droplets over 1500–2200 K. As temperature increases, the network periodicity increases and the correlation length decreases, both in monotonic trends that suggest continuous structural evolution through the melt and supercooled liquid regimes. At 1900 K, the mean Ti–O and Nd–O coordination numbers are 5.8(5) and 6.7(5), compared to the glass, 5.72(6) and 7.70(26). The equilibrium melting point is measured as 1860(20) K, over 100 K higher than previous estimates. Viscosity data from MD are in good agreement with experimental measurements. The dynamic propensity of Nd is similar to that of the network-forming Ti, suggesting that Nd does not participate as a conventional modifier. The viscosity of this fragile liquid is likely controlled by the breaking of cation–oxygen bonds and rearrangements of Ti–O polyhedra.

FY26 Progress Report on the Operation of the Activated Materials Laboratory at the Advanced Photon Source as a Nuclear Science User Facilities Partner Facility

The Activated Materials Laboratory (AML), located in the Long Beamline Building of the Advanced Photon Source (APS) at Argonne National Laboratory (ANL), provides a centralized radiological capability for preparing, handling, and supporting synchrotron experiments on activated materials. As a Nuclear Science User Facilities (NSUF) partner facility, the AML enables the receipt of radioactive shipments, open-form sample handling, encapsulation, transport of specimens to and from APS beamlines, and experimentation with dedicated equipment. The partnership includes the APS 1-ID and 20-ID beamlines, which provide high-energy x-ray scattering, tomography, and diffraction microscopy techniques for ex-situ, in-situ, and grainresolved three-dimensional (3D) characterization. All samples supported through the AML and partner beamlines must meet radiological limits of less than 100 mrem/h at 30 cm. This FY26 progress report summarizes the first full year of AML operations as an NSUF partner facility and highlights progress in both user support and capability development. By the end of FY26, the AML had received a total of 10 NSUF-awarded projects, including 2 Consolidated Innovative Nuclear Research (CINR), 7 Rapid Turnaround Experiment (RTE), and 1 Super RTE projects. Beamtime was fully delivered for 3 RTE projects and partially delivered for 1 CINR project, demonstrating successful workflows for receipt, encapsulation, beamline transfer, and radiological experiment execution. These efforts demonstrated safe radiological experiments at APS beamlines for samples with dose rates above the historical 5 mrem/h threshold and now up to 100 mrem/h at 30 cm, marking an important milestone for neutron-irradiated materials research. During FY26, the AML also expanded its experimental capabilities. A Psylotech xTS load frame with in-grip rotation was deployed for room-temperature mechanical testing with threedimensional x-ray characterization during interrupted loading. A Linkam TS1500V vacuum heater was commissioned for thermally driven studies, and temperature calibration experiments were performed to establish specimen-relevant thermal profiles. In parallel, a customized split-tube furnace for high-temperature mechanical testing entered commissioning, and initial work began on robotic sample handling to reduce worker dose and improve operational efficiency. Data workflow and beamline operations continued to mature. Together, these developments demonstrate that the AML is becoming a unique national resource for safe, efficient, and scientifically advanced characterization of activated materials at the APS.

Programmable Phase Selection between Altermagnetic and Noncentrosymmetric Polymorphs of MnTe on InP via Molecular Beam Epitaxy

Phase selecting nearly degenerate crystalline polymorphs during epitaxial growth can be challenging yet critical to targeting physical properties for specific applications. Here, we establish how phase selectivity of altermagnetic and noncentrosymmetric polymorphs of MnTe can be programmed by subtle changes to the surface of lattice-matched InP substrates in molecular beam epitaxy growth. Bulk altermagnetic MnTe is thermodynamically stable in the hexagonal NiAs-structure and is synthesized here on the polar (111)A surface (In-terminated) of InP, while the noncentrosymmetric, cubic ZnS-structure with wide band gap (>3 eV), which epitaxially matches III–V materials, is stabilized on the (111)B surface (P-terminated). Electron microscopy, X-ray photoemission spectroscopy, and reflection high-energy electron diffraction indicate that phase selection is triggered at the interface and proceeds along the growing surface. First-principles calculations suggest that interfacial termination and strain have a significant effect on the interfacial energy; stabilizing the NiAs polymorph on the In-terminated surface and the ZnS structure on the P-terminated surface. Here, selectively grown, high-quality, phase pure films of both MnTe polymorphs will enable our understanding of the novel properties of these materials, thereby facilitating their use in new applications ranging from spintronics to microelectronic devices.

Programmable Phase Selection between Altermagnetic and Noncentrosymmetric Polymorphs of MnTe on InP via Molecular Beam Epitaxy

This dataset contains DFT input and output files supporting the theoretical modeling in the associated publication (ACS Appl. Mater. Interfaces 2026, 18, 15654-15664). The calculations model the interfacial energetics of two MnTe polymorphs — NiAs-MnTe (hexagonal, alpha phase) and ZnS-MnTe (cubic, gamma phase) — on InP(111) substrates with two surface terminations: In-terminated InP(111)A and P-terminated InP(111)B. This gives four interface configurations: NiAs on In-terminated (experimentally observed), NiAs on P-terminated (computed for comparison), ZnS on In-terminated (computed for comparison), and ZnS on P-terminated (experimentally observed). The dataset is organized into four calculation types, each covering all four polymorph/termination combinations: (i) Slabs: Pristine MnTe/InP heterostructure slabs used to compute total energies and interface energy densities (Eint) for all four configurations, as reported in Fig. 6 of the main text. (ii) Disorder: Same slab geometries with a P_Te + Te_P antisite defect pair introduced near the interface, used to assess chemical intermixing effects on interface stability (Fig. S8, SI). (iii) Strain: Pristine slab calculations with in-plane lattice parameters strained by -1% and +1% relative to the InP lattice constant, used to evaluate strain-dependent interface energetics (Fig. S9, SI). (iv) Charge_Density: Single-point calculations on the full heterostructure, the isolated InP slab, and the isolated MnTe slab at fixed geometry, used to compute differential charge density plots showing interfacial charge accumulation and depletion as a function of surface termination (Fig. S10, SI). Each calculation folder contains INCAR, KPOINTS, POSCAR, CONTCAR, OUTCAR, and POTCAR_info.txt (PAW potential information, excluding the full POTCAR due to VASP licensing restrictions). The calculations were performed using VASP 6.4.3 with PBE exchange-correlation, PAW potentials, a Hubbard correction of Ueff = 5 eV on Mn d-states, and A-type AFM spin initialization.

High hardness and oxidation-resistant Cr-containing medium entropy ZrTaW diboride

This study reports the successful synthesis of a Cr-containing (Zr 0.30 Ta 0.34 Cr 0.06 W 0.30 )B 2 medium-entropy boride (MEB) via an in-situ reactive borothermal reduction route from oxide precursors. High-energy ball milling was employed to homogenize the precursor mixture prior to reactive densification. X-ray diffraction confirmed the formation of a predominantly AlB₂-type hexagonal diboride structure together with a secondary (W X , M 1-X )B monoboride phase. Microstructural characterization revealed compositional heterogeneity and localized W-rich regions associated with the secondary phase. The synthesized medium-entropy boride exhibited enhanced mechanical properties, which are attributed to lattice distortion and solid-solution strengthening effects. Thermogravimetric analysis revealed complex multistage oxidation behavior, and the oxidation resistance was compared with conventional ultra-high-temperature diborides. The results demonstrate the strong relationship between oxide-derived processing, compositional complexity, phase evolution, and oxidation behavior, highlighting the potential of medium-entropy borides for high-temperature structural applications

In-Situ Visualization of a Growing Brittle Crack in Aluminum Oxynitride Using Synchrotron X-Rays and the Double-Cleavage Drilled Compression Geometry

Brittle fracture is difficult to study in situ due to the speed of a growing crack and the often-catastrophic nature of failure in brittle materials. As a result, the influence of microstructural considerations, such as orientation, grain boundary locations, and strain field, on the crack path remains poorly understood. Presented in this study is a method addressing this knowledge gap, which utilizes the double-cleavage drilled compression geometry to achieve quasi-stable fracture in aluminum oxynitride (AlON). Synchrotron X-ray micro-computed tomography is used to characterize the crack shape and length, while high-energy diffraction microscopy provides information on the strains, orientations, and shapes of grains in the microstructure surrounding the crack tip. During testing, the crack grew in discrete and irregular jumps while the fracture toughness falls within reported ranges. The crack in AlON is found to have no greater tendency to crack intergranularly as compared to transgranularly, and grains which are cracked transgranularly do not display a trend in orientation or stress when compared to those around which the crack followed a grain boundary. The high resolution of the crack path and microstructural data provides a path forward for modeling and understanding 3D brittle fracture.

Temperature-Dependent Sn Incorporation and Defect Formation in Pseudomorphic SiSn Layers on Si (001) via Molecular Beam Epitaxy

SiSn alloys have attracted growing interest for group-IV bandgap engineering, although their epitaxial growth remains challenging due to the extremely low equilibrium solubility of Sn in Si. In this work, fully strained (pseudomorphic) SiSn epitaxial layers were grown on Si (001) substrates by means of molecular beam epitaxy. A systematic investigation reveals a strong inverse correlation between growth temperature and Sn incorporation efficiency. Despite a constant Sn flux, the incorporated Sn composition decreases from 5.5% to 3.2% as the growth temperature increases, indicating a pronounced temperature dependence of Sn incorporation. Reflection high-energy electron diffraction indicates a gradual transition of the growth from two-dimensional to three-dimensional with increasing film thickness. Structural characterization by means of X-ray diffraction, atomic force microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy confirms the pseudomorphic growth and smooth surface morphology and reveals twins and stacking faults near the surface region. These results establish a quantitative reference for SiSn growth kinetics and provide guidance for future studies of SiSn and SiGeSn alloys in silicon-compatible electronic and optoelectronic applications.

SEM/EBSD Characterization of Baffle-Former Bolts Designated for High Energy X-ray Microscopy Studies at the Advanced Photon Source

This report documents the microstructural and surface characterization of two high-fluence baffle-former bolts (BFBs) harvested from a commercial pressurized water reactor (PWR) after nearly four decades of service. These bolts experienced extreme conditions including high neutron fluence, elevated temperatures, corrosive primary water, and sustained mechanical loads, all of which contribute to degradation mechanisms such as irradiation-assisted stress corrosion cracking (IASCC). Using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD), the study assessed bulk and near-surface microstructures, grain boundary characteristics, and in-service oxide layers. The results revealed significant differences between bolts exposed to 41 dpa and 29 dpa, including differences in recrystallization extent, deformation structures, and oxidation morphology. These findings establish critical baseline data for integration with advanced synchrotron-based high-energy X-ray microscopy (HEXM) and computational crystal plasticity models. Ultimately, the work supports improved mechanistic understanding and predictive capability regarding the long-term performance of reactor core internal components.

Federated learning for 2D synchrotron x-ray diffractometry: a cross-institutional approach for phase quantification of Ti–6Al–4V alloy

High-energy Two dimensional (2D) synchrotron x-ray diffractometry provides important insights into the atomistic structure and phase evolution of materials, yet traditional analysis methods remain complex, knowledge-intensive, and computationally demanding. Deep-learning models offer a powerful alternative for automating their analysis. Institutions that hold these datasets may be unwilling to share their data due to privacy and security policies, as well as the challenges associated with large-scale data transfer. As a result, models trained on local datasets often perform well only on their own data but exhibit bias and poor generalization across different instruments or facilities. To overcome these limitations, we explore federated learning (FL) for 2D synchrotron diffractograms, enabling collaborative model training without exchanging raw data. In this study, 2D synchrotron diffractograms of Ti–6Al–4V alloy collected from two independent facilities are used to train convolutional neural networks for predicting the β-phase volume fraction. Experimental results show that federated global models significantly outperform locally trained models in terms of generalization and achieve accuracy comparable to centralized trained models. These findings demonstrate the potential of FL to enable secure, cross-institutional collaboration and enhance the scalability of deep-learning-based materials characterization.

How alkyl branching shapes structure in imidazolium and pyrrolidinium NTf 2 ionic liquids

High-energy X-ray scattering experiments and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations were carried out on ionic liquids (ILs) consisting of 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium and 1-alkyl-1-methylpyrrolidinium cations. These cations were paired with bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)amide anions and identical alkyl tails were used for both cationic species. The goal of this work is to investigate how the nanoscale structure of the ionic liquid changes with the length and with the degree of branching of the alkyl tail, for ILs having a common anion. We investigate spatial correlations in the intermolecular region, focusing on the intrinsic charge-charge interactions that characterize all ionic liquids, as well as the nanoscale domain segregation that is present in IL species with significant nonpolar components.

Cold-Sprayed NMC622 Composite as a Cathode for Lithium-Ion Batteries

The growing demand for high-energy, low-cost lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) to power electric vehicles (EVs) necessitates advances in both materials and manufacturing processes. Conventional cathode fabrication methods, such as slurry casting and drying, are energy-intensive and pose challenges for scalability and environmental compliance. In this study, we propose cold-spray (CS) deposition as a solvent-free approach for fabricating LiNi 0.6 Mn 0.2 Co 0.2 O 2 (NMC622) composite cathodes. Powder blends of NMC622, poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF), and carbon black (CB) are directly deposited onto stainless steel and Inconel substrates under varied gas temperatures, pressures (and thus velocities), and standoff distances. The effects of temperature on the deposit morphology, coating density, and volume are systematically investigated. Computational fluid dynamics simulations reveal that increasing the gas temperature enhances the particle velocity, narrows the spray angle, and reduces the mass concentration radially at the nozzle outlet. CS deposition results in a dense cathode microstructure, accompanied by fracture in polycrystalline NMC622 particles. X-ray diffraction analysis further verifies that there are no phase changes during the deposition process. The electrochemical performance of the cold-sprayed cathodes reveals an initial capacity of approximately 96 mAh g –1 for single-crystal NMC622 and 167 mAh g –1 for polycrystalline NMC622. While these values are modest compared to state-of-the-art slurry-cast cathodes, which typically exhibit 180–200 mAh g –1 under optimized conditions. The results demonstrate a competitive performance given the solvent-free nature of the CS process and compare favorably with tape-cast samples made from identical feedstock. In conclusion, he CS process enables the formation of dense, binder-integrated cathode coatings without the need for solvent processing, offering a promising pathway for scalable, energy-efficient dry electrode manufacturing of next-generation LIBs.
