Friday (18.05.2018) 09:00 - 09:25 Part of:| 09:00 | Lecture | Diffusion in Binary Neighbour-Systems of Shape-Memory Alloys 1 | Prof. Dr. Helmut Mehrer |
Diffusion in solids is fundamental in the art and science of materials and an important topic of solid-state physics, physical metallurgy and materials science. Point defects like vacancies or interstitials mediate diffusion. Dislocations and grain boundaries are other types of defects and can act as high-diffusivity paths. .
This talk reminds the audience to some fundamentals of solid-state diffusion and to major techniques for diffusion measurements. Then we focus on diffusion in the binary systems Cu-Zn, Fe-Al, Fe-Si and Ni-Ti, which are binary neighbours of ternary shape-memory alloys. Self-diffusion is the most basic diffusion phenomenon in any solid. The talk covers at first main features self-diffusion in the pure components. Binary intermetallics are compounds of two metals or of a metal and a semimetal. Their structures are different from those of the constituents. Diffusion in major binary intermetallics of the above mentioned systems is considered as well
