Abstract
Atom probe analyses performed at the grain boundaries in Ni-49 at. % Al indicated a majority of regions that contained almost no aluminum and a few regions that indicated neither enrichment nor depletion of aluminum. The widths of the depleted zones were less than 0.5 nm. It is proposed that this aluminum depleted zone could be a cause of the enhanced ductility and change in fracture mechanism that occurs in this intermetallic alloy as compared to NiAl alloys further from stoichiometry.
