Abstract

The migration kinetics of antiphase boundaries (APBs) in long-range ordered Fe-Al alloys are analyzed using in-situ hot-stage transmission electron microscopy, making it possible to observe the interfacial migration directly as it occurs. The observed domain structures are essentially two dimensional due to the thin foil configuration of the specimen, facilitating analytical interpretation of the data. By measuring the local curvatures and migration distances from a series of micrographs taken at a constant temperature, the proportionality constant relating velocity to curvature can be determined. This proportionality constant, called the mobility for APB migration, is found to be independent of the curvature for <100> APBs in Fe-27 atomic percent Al at 745K, having the value of 4.8×10−19 m2/s.
