An Investigation of the Structural Strains and the Breakdown of Poisson'S Effect in Lattice-Mismatched BCC(110)/FCC(111) Metallic Superlattices
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 25 February 2011
Abstract
The strain profiles of individual layers of a selected group of stable bcc(110)/fcc(111) metallic superlattices which have been determined by x-ray diffraction methods are compared, and discussed in terms of a number of mechanisms proposed for explaining their anomalous properties. The superlattices in this group are distinguished in terms of a highly anisotropic lattice spacing mismatch of their adjoining bcc and fcc layers (∼20% vs. 3%). The most prominent structural feature of the bcc layers consists of a highly anisotropic in-plane contraction accompanied with a small out-of-plane strain. The fee layers are found to show large out-of-plane expansions which based on their small in-plane expansions cannot be explained within framework of standard elasticity theory.
