ON THE EFFECT OF HIGH PRESSURES ON THE MOBILITY OF ATOMS IN GRAIN BOUNDARIES

Abstract
The results of recent investigations of the effect of high pressures on grain boundary diffusion and grain boundary migration in Aluminium are compared. The activation volume for general grain boundaries migration was found to be less than 0.2 Ω (Ω - atomic volume). On the other hand the activation volume for diffusion along general boundaries and subboundaries is close to 0.8 Ω. A similar value for Ω was obtained for migration of subboundaries. It follows that the formation volume for defects controlling atomic mobility across general boundaries is significantly less than of those controlling diffusion along boundaries and dislocation climb.
