Predicting co-segregation in alloys with solute-solute interactions
Zuoyong Zhang, Chuang Deng
The co-segregation of impurities in systems with multiple solute species has been widely recognized as an effective strategy for tailoring material properties. However, reliable pr…

Disconnection formation via segregation-induced grain boundary phase transitions
Zuoyong Zhang, Chuang Deng
Disconnections, long recognized as the key mediators of grain boundary (GB) kinetics in polycrystalline materials, have traditionally been understood to nucleate through thermal or…

Grain boundary interstitial segregation in substitutional binary alloys
Zuoyong Zhang, Chuang Deng
Grain boundary (GB) segregation is a powerful approach for optimizing the thermal and mechanical properties of metal alloys. In this study, we report significant GB interstitial se…
