Ab initio modelling of intergranular fracture of nickel containing phosphorus: Interfacial excess properties

In the present work, the impact of phosphorus impurities on the grain boundary strength of nickel has been investigated by means of density functional theory (DFT) modelling. Owing to different outcomes and trends previously reported in the literature, it is unclear whether P is strengthening or wea...
