The role of interfacial structure in the evolution of precipitate morphology

Three aspects of precipitate growth by a ledge mechanism in a Ni-45wt%Cr alloy were investigated. The strain energy for ledge formation and ledge growth kinetics and the emission of structural defects were studied experimentally during the growth of bcc laths from an fcc matrix. The elastic stra...
