Abstract

Grain boundaries in quenched and aged Cu-i.5%Sb were examined with Auger electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and high resolution electron microscopy. The ∑=3 grain boundaries are strongly faceted, with the facets lying primarily along the coincident (111) planes of the two grains. The grain boundaries are enriched in antimony, as demonstrated by both AES and HREM. HREM images of the ∑=3 (111) ║ (111) grain boundary differ from those of the Cu-Bi ∑ =3 (111) ║ (111) grain boundary in the lack of a significant grain boundary expansion to accommodate the excess solute at the boundary. A preliminary investigation of the atomic structure of the ∑=3 (111) ║ (111) facet by HREM and multislice calculations is presented.
