MATERIALS SCIENCE & ENGINEERING Part of A Learner’s Guide AN INTRODUCTORY E-BOOK Anandh Subramaniam & Kantesh Balani Materials Science and Engineering (MSE) Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur- 208016 Email:anandh@iitk.ac.in, URL:home.iitk.ac.in/~anandh http://home.iitk.ac.in/~anandh/E-book.htm Interfaces in Solids
Coherent without strain Matching spacing but with different crystal structure Same crystal structure (& lattice spacing) but different composition Schematics of strain free coherent interfaces
Coherent strained Region with Tensile Stresses Interface Compressively stressed region Coherent interface with a small lattice mismatch Coherency stresses develop in the adjoining crystals
Schematic showing a coherent precipitate and the origin of coherency strains
Semi-Coherent • Semicoherent interfaces have an array of dislocations which partially relax the misfit strains arising from the lattice mismatch across the interface between the two materials Schematic showing a Semi-coherent interface: A series of edge dislocations at a spacing of D partially relax the misfit strain at the interface(this can be thought of as the interface breaking up into regions with registry and those with dislocations)
Stress state of an semi-coherent interface Dislocation stress fields partly relax the coherency stresses Compressively strained film and substrate in tension (away from the dislocation line)Ge0.5Si0.5 FILM ON Si SUBSTRATE for a film of larger lattice parameter Zoomed region near the edge dislocation MPa
