GRAIN BOUNDARY STRUCTURAL TRANSFORMATIONS IN HEXAGONAL CLOSE PACKED METALS

Abstract
Hexagonal metals differ in three important ways from cubic materials. First, the irrational c/a ratio precludes the formation of 3-dimensional CSLs, in general, so lattice coincidence is achieved on the basis of "constrained CSLs" or CCSLs. Second, the c/a ratio is temperature dependent, meaning that grain boundary geometry also changes with temperature. Third, the distribution of coincidence systems is highly inhomogeneous in misorientation space, meaning that clusters of CCSLs exist and it is possible for a boundary structure to transform from one CCSL-related form to a form related to another CCSL.
