Molecular Statics of a Ni/Zr Heterophase Interface
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 21 February 2011
Abstract
An atomistic model for a Ni/Zr hetero-interface formed between closed packed atomic planes is constructed and simulated using energy minimization techniques. The results show how misfit dislocations are introduced in the system and form an hexagonal array, and that the strain field in Ni can reach values two times larger than those in Zr. Calculated values for antisite defect energies are positive and are a strong function of position at the interface, reflecting the role of the dislocation network.
