• As part of an Energy Frontier Research Center (EFRC) on the subject of thermoelectricity --

http://www.energyfrontier.us/sites/all/themes/basic/pdfs/RMSSEC.pdf -- we are working on bulk semiconducting thermoelectric materials whose nanostructures are optimized to increase the electrical conductivity and decrease the thermal conductivity. The thermal conductivity is decreased by precipitating a high number density of nanometer size precipitates, which in-creases the surface-to-volume ratio of matrix/precipitate interfaces and therefore enhance sig-nificantly the scattering of phonons. The electrical conductivity is increased by adding a do-pant, for example, sodium in the PbTe-PbS system. We have applied atom-probe tomography to study the nanostructure: specifically the compositions of the matrix and precipitates and the Gibbsian interfacial excess of solute at the matrix/precipitate interface as this affects phonon scattering compared to clean matrix/precipitate interfaces.

• Scientific studies are being performed of model nickel-based superalloys, which are used to

fabricate turbine blades for commercial and military aircraft jet engines, and for turbine blades in land-based natural gas turbines used to generate electrical power. We are studying the temporally evolving microstructures on both nanometer and mesoscopic length scales. This research permits a scientific understanding of the kinetic trajectories leading to the de-velopment of the nano- and microstructures. We are basically studying the kinetics of a first-order phase transformation that involves the decomposition of a face-centered-cubic single-phase solid-solution into two-phase alloy consisting of an ordered phase L12 (Ni3AlxCr1-x) phase and a disordered face-centered cubic matrix. The alloys being studied are Ni-Al, Ni-Al-Mo, Ni-Al-Cr, Ni-Al-Cr-Re, Ni-Al-Cr-W, Ni-Al-Cr-Re-W, Ni-Al-Cr-Ta, Ni-Al-Cr-Ru, Ni-Al-Cr-Ru, and Ni-Al-Cr-Re-W-Ru. The approach is to add systematically one or more re-fractory elements (Re, Ru, W, Ta) at a time to a ternary reference alloy, Ni-Al-Cr, to under-stand how the addition of each element affects the ultimate microstructures. These alloys are studied using atom-probe tomography (APT), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), high-resolution electron microscopy (HREM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), optical microscopy, and microhardness measurements. An important result that comes out of these



11

studies is that the mechanism of coarsening is via a coagulation-coalescence mechanism and not the classic Lifshitz-Slyzov-Wagner (LSW) mechanism, which was demonstrated to be controlled by vacancy-solute binding energies out to fourth-nearest neighbor distances. See the following short review articles for some details:

D. N. Seidman, C. K. Sudbrack, and K. E. Yoon, “The Use of 3-D Atom-Probe Tomog-raphy to Study Nickel-Based Superalloys,” JOM 58 (12), 34-39 (2006). D. N. Seidman, “Three-Dimensional Atom-Probe Tomography: Advances and Applica-

tions,” Annual Review of Materials Research 37, 127-158 (2007).

• Lattice kinetic Monte Carlo (LKMC) studies, where diffusion is mediated by a monovacan-cy mechanism, of the temporal kinetics of the evolution of the nano- and microstructures of Ni-Al-Cr alloys, with detailed comparisons to the experimental data acquired employing at-om-probe tomography, permits us to explain the kinetic trajectories and the morphological evolution of nanometer size gamma prime precipitates. Additionally, we are presently de-veloping pair-wise interatomic potentials, to fourth nearest neighbor, for the Ni-Al-Mo sys-tem and to perform LKMC simulation of the temporal evolution of the nanostructure. The interaction terms in the pair-wise interatomic potentials are determined from first-principles calculations using the Vienna ab ignition simulation program (VASP). This research also requires the calculation of the Ni-Al-Mo phase diagram using Grand Canonical Monte Carlo simulation and parameterizing the kinetics for this system. For some detailed results on the Ni-Al-Cr system see:

• Turbine blades in commercial and military jet engines and land-based natural gas turbines are

fabricated from nickel-based superalloys and are two-phase single-crystal alloys containing as many as 10 elements. The turbine blades are produced by a highly sophisticated casting pro-cess that often results in so-called “freckles,” which are produced in the mushy zone during the solidification process and are defects that need to be eliminated to improve the perfor-mance of jet engines. Freckles appear on the surfaces of turbine blades and are deleterious to their high-temperature performance. Toward understanding the mechanism of formation of freckles in the mushy zone that appears during the solidification processing we are studying the crystallography and chemistry of freckles at all length scales, from the subnanometer to



12

the millimeter using a wide range of experimental techniques: optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, electron-back scattering diffraction patterns in conjunction with a dual-beam focused-ion beam microscope, and atom-probe to-mography.

• Temporal evolution of the nanostructures of Al(Sc,X,) alloys, where X = Mg, Zr, Ti, and/or X = rare earth (RE) elements, or Li, and the relationships of the nanostructures to high tem-perature creep properties (0.6 to 0.7 of the absolute melting point of aluminum). This re-search is ultimately aimed at the development of an aluminum alloy for use at higher temper-atures than all existing aluminum alloys; that is, greater than 0.6 of the absolute melting point of Al. We have learned and are learning a great deal about the nucleation, growth, and coars-ening of Al3(Sc1-xXx) precipitates in these relatively simple alloys, where the decomposition of the alloy is also a first-order phase transformation. The experimental tools are atom-probe tomography, transmission electron microscopy, high resolution electron microscopy, scan-ning electron microscopy, microhardness measurements, AC electrical conductivity meas-urements, and creep measurements (in cooperation with Prof. D. C. Dunand), and lattice ki-netic Monte Carlo (LKMC) simulation. See the following review article concerning the search for a castable high-temperature creep resistant Al-based alloy:

• Temporal evolution of the nanostructures of Al-Zr and Al-Zr-Ti base alloys and their relation-

ships to high temperature creep properties (0.6 to 0.7 of the absolute melting point of alumi-num); in cooperation with Prof. D. C. Dunand. This research is aimed at the development of an aluminum alloy for use at higher temperatures than all existing aluminum alloys. We have learned a great deal about the nucleation, growth and coarsening of precipitates in systems that involve a peritectic reaction as opposed to a eutectic reaction, which is much simple. This research involves the use of the following characterization tools: APT, TEM, SEM, optical microscopy, secondary ion mass spectroscopy (SIMS), microhardness and AC electrical con-ductivity measurements.

• Development of high-strength low-alloy (HSLA) steels that are blast resistant for naval appli-cations, particularly naval hulls, with an emphasis on understanding on a scientific basis of how these alloys develop specific mechanical properties that are important for blast resistance at temperatures as low as -40 oC. The mechanical properties of these steels are determined by nanometer diameter copper-rich and metal carbide precipitates. It is demonstrated that it is possible to control the number density and mean radii of these copper precipitates in a scien-tific manner and therefore control the pertinent mechanical properties (yield stress, ultimate tensile stress, total plasticity at failure, and toughness as measured by the Charpy impact val-ues: initially in cooperation with Prof. Emeritus M. E. Fine. A deep understanding of the nu-cleation, growth, and coarsening behavior of concentrated multicomponent alloys of techno-logical value is being obtained from these studies. These alloys are characterized using APT, TEM, SEM, optical microscopy, and microhardness measurements. Additionally, the chemis-try of the copper-rich precipitates that form are studied using first-principles calculations em-ploying VASP and the results are compared with the experimental observations obtained us-ing atom-probe tomography. Additionally, we are studying fusion welding of these iron-copper based alloys.

frequency (SRF) cavity, approximately 20,000 of which will make up the accelerator. The preferred technology is to fabricate the cavities from high-purity niobium sheet. From the RF superconductivity point-of-view, the interface between the native niobium oxide on the sur-face of the cavity and near sub-surface region is the most important one. Superconducting properties of cavities depend on the chemistry and microstructure of the surface oxide and the concentration and location of impurity elements. Little is known, however, about this infor-mation and the effect of low-temperature baking on the surface region. We are currently em-



14

ploying APT to analyze this near surface regions with a particular emphasis on the stoichi-ometries of the niobium oxides that form and the hydrogen concentration profiles that exist in the niobium oxides and bulk niobium. Specifically, we have been performing correlative at-om-probe tomography and aberration corrected STEM/EELS to study hydrogen, hydrides and oxides in ‘pure niobium.’ This research is being performed in cooperation with researchers at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory, who are supplying specimens.

• Atom-probe tomography (APT) is being used to perform 3-D composition profiling of CMOS

device structures for extending CMOS technology. The feasibility of APT is being demon-strated for uniform planar structures including shallow implant regions, complex metal sili-cide/silicon layer, and a high-K dielectric stack in cooperation with Prof. L.

Rosenwaks (Tel Aviv University) who is performing Kelvin probe force microscopy to resolve spatial variations in work function values on the nanometer scale. The ultimate aim of this project is to be able to analyze chemically and electrically a single transistor on a nanometer to subna-nometer scale. We are also studying the kinetics of nickel/silicon reactions using synchrotron x-ray diffraction and atom-probe tomography in a correlative manner.

• The fundamental aim of this project is to use the local-electrode atom-probe (LEAP) tomo-graph to study the three-dimensional, atomic-level structure of magnetic multilayers. Previ-ous research has indicated that the transport and magnetic properties of magnetic tunnel junc-tion (MTJ) structures, which are used as memory storage devices and magnetic field sensors, strongly depend upon the character of the layer interfaces. The LEAP tomograph is ideal for characterizing the morphology and compositional character of the multilayer structure and interfaces at a sub-nanometer scale. Much progress has been made in the last year on this project. Collaborations have been es-tablished with several groups (Seagate Technology, Canon-ANELVA Corporation and NIST-Maryland) to grow high quality thin-film samples. Procedures have been developed for the production of atom probe specimens from thin films grown on silicon wafers using the dual-beam FIB microscope at Argonne National Laboratory, and these specimens have been successfully analyzed in the LEAP tomograph. Interestingly, we find that the tunnel barriers in these first simple MTJs (CoFe/MgO/CoFe) were chemically asymmetric: the low-er CoFe layer is found to be slightly oxidized at the CoFe/MgO interface as a result of the growth technique. In addition, the tunneling I-V character of these structures is asymmetric as a result of this chemical asymmetry. After annealing the structure at 340 °C for 1 h the chemical and I-V asymmetry are both reduced, highlighting the direct connection between very fine scale microstructure and transport behavior.

• Segregation of impurity (unintentional) or solute (intentional) atoms at either grain boundaries

or heterophase interfaces affects the mechanical and electrical properties of materials and this phenomenon is ubiquitous in all materials. I had a strong research program in this area study-ing grain boundaries in metallic alloys and metal/ceramic heterophase interfaces, with a strong experimental emphasis on studying segregation at the atomic scale (subnanometer) employing atom-probe microscopy. Additionally, Metropolis algorithm Monte Carlo simula-tions were performed to study segregation of solute atoms in binary metallic alloys on an atomic scale as a function of a grain boundary’s five macroscopic and three microscopic de-grees of freedom. The combination of atomic scale experimental observations and Monte Car-

Major Scientific Accomplishments, 1965 to the present

New York University, 1960-1962

• For my M.S. thesis research I determined the degree of non-stoichiometry of the semi-conductor PbSe, which was thought to be a line compound in the then extant Pb-Se phase diagram. The motivation for these experiments is that PbSe exhibits a reasonable thermo-electric power and hence was thought to be a suitable candidate for small refrigeration systems in remote areas that are not hooked up to an electrical grid system. To determine the degree of nonstoichiometry I grew single crystals of PbxSey with values of x and y that differed from unity, thereby creating p-n junctions in the crystals at different points. From the positions of the p-n junctions in the single crystals I was able to calculate the range of stability of PbSe over a reasonable temperature range. Additionally, I redeter-mined a portion of the Pb-Se phase diagram and showed that a then recently postulated monotectic reaction did not exist. Strangely enough I returned to the subject of bulk thermoelectric materials about three years ago as a result of the Energy Frontier Research Center (EFRC) on this subject.

University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 1962-1964

• For my Ph.D. thesis research, at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, I demonstrated that dislocations are the dominant sources of vacancies in a polycrystalline metal, which was accomplished by performing up-quenching experiments on gold and measuring the kinetics of vacancy production in the millisecond range; my Ph.D. thesis supervisor was Robert W. Balluffi. These experiments also demonstrated that the effi-



17

ciency of dislocation climb is a function of the vacancy subsaturation; that is, the chemi-cal potential of a vacancy determines the climb velocity. Additionally, these experiments settled a controversy, precipitated by a theory of Doris Kuhlmann-Wilsdorf, which as-serted that “old” dislocations cannot climb.

Cornell University, 1965-1985

• As a postdoctoral student, at Cornell University, I set-up a laboratory to study the kinetics

of vacancy decay at elevated temperatures by quenching from one elevated temperature to a lower elevated temperature without quenching to room temperature, which constitut-ed a new approach to this technique. This was accomplished with fully automated elec-tronic equipment that circumvented problems associated with quenching to room temper-ature and provided a deeper understanding of the efficiency of dislocation climb as a function of the vacancy supersaturation in gold; the kinetics of vacancy decay at the low-er elevated temperature were followed at temperature using resistivity measurements. Between the up-quenching experiments and these down-quenching experiments it was found that there is fundamental asymmetry in how dislocations climb in the presence of sub- and super-saturations of vacancies, which had not been understood and was clari-fied. Based on these experimental results a correlation was found between the chemical potential of vacancy of a and the efficiency of dislocation climb; that is, the velocity of climb for the experimental conditions compared to diffusion-limited climb, which is the fastest possible climb velocity.

• As an assistant professor, at Cornell University, I established the first laboratory in the

world dedicated to study quantitatively the fundamental properties of point defects in quenched or irradiated metals employing field-ion microscopy (FIM); I became an assis-tant professor in January 1966. Ultrahigh vacuum (UHV) FIMs were designed and fabri-cated, as well as liquid-helium cryostats that permitted FIM specimens to be cooled to temperatures as low as 10 K. Two UHV FIMs were attached to a low-energy (60 kV for singly-charged ions) heavy-metal ion accelerator, with magnetic mass analysis of the ion beam, via three differential stages of pumping, which permitted FIM specimens to be ir-radiated in situ under UHV conditions at temperatures as low as 10 K.

• First, using an UHV FIM, the direct observations of individual mono- and divacancies

were made in quenched platinum specimens, thereby yielding the first direct experi-mental measurement of the ratio of mono- to divacancy concentrations, which yielded an



18

absolute value of the binding free energy of a divacancy that was independent of a model. This result permitted a detailed explanation of diffusion in platinum to be made in terms of the mono- and divacancy concentrations, without adjustable fitting parameters. The experiments also yielded an absolute value for the specific resistivity of a vacancy in plat-inum.

• I developed an extensive program to study experimentally the character of displacement

cascades produced by single heavy metal ions, which were studied in detail using the above described system for irradiating in situ metal FIM specimens. This research yield-ed the distributions of vacancies within displacement cascades as revealed by radial dis-tribution functions (RDFs) and demonstrated how the RDFs change systematically with the mass of incident ion at constant incident energy; the studies were performed on both tungsten and platinum specimens. The experimental results also demonstrated that the self-interstitials created within displacement cascades are carried away by focused re-placement collision sequences. The result of this program of research was a detailed in-sight into the primary state of radiation damage in the absence of thermal migration of the point defects created.

• Additionally, the elastically deposited energy, from a large number of implanted ions,

was determined as a function of depth by measuring the profile of the vacancy damage created in platinum specimens. This was the first direct experimental determination of the elastically deposited energy and perhaps the only one to date. Physically the elastically deposited energy is the energy expended in creating point defects and by definition re-quires detection of the vacancies and self-interstitial atoms (SIAs).

• The diffusivities of self-interstitial atoms in W, Pt, Pt-Au, Mo, Mo-Re, ordered Ni4Mo,

and ordered Pt3Co were directly determined from in situ irradiation experiments using the apparatus described above. For these experiments specimens were irradiated at 10 K, which is below the temperature where self-interstitial atoms (SIAs) migrate in these met-als. The FIM specimens were then warmed continuously from 10 K, with the surface of the specimens serving as a strong sink for SIAs; this experiment is essentially an isochro-nal warming experiment. The SIAs were detected by the contrast effects they produced when they arrived at the free surface, and the temperature at which they migrated freely was detected by a peak in the flux of SIAs arriving at the free surface. A simple diffusion model was developed to extract the diffusivities and migration energies of the migrating SIAs. Additionally, the experiments yielded the volume change of migration of a SIA, since an FIM specimen is subjected, to first order, to a negative hydrostatic pressure. Similar experiments performed on specimens of the alloys Pt-Au and Mo-Re provided di-



19

rect evidence for the trapping of SIAs at solute atoms. Additionally, experiments on the ordered alloys Ni4Mo and Pt3Co provided direct evidence for two different geometric forms of the SIAs in these ordered compounds.

• The ordered alloys Ni4Mo and Pt3Co were used to study directly and quantitatively elas-

tically deposited energy profiles. This was accomplished by measuring the change in the Bragg-Williams long-range order (LRO) parameter as a function of depth. The classical definition of the LRO could be used directly because of changes in the contrast of the FIM patterns on an atomic scale. Additionally, the elastically deposited energy profiles were determined as a function of both ion energy and crystallographic direction. These results yielded one of the only experimental checks of ion-solid scattering theories at low energies, and also provided direct evidence for channeling of the implanted ions at low energies, less than 1500 Vdc.

• To understand the basic physics of field-ion microscopy I initiated a series of experi-

ments to on the process of field-ionization, which involves the quantum mechanical tun-neling of an imaging gas atom outermost electron into an FIM specimen. This involved fabricating a miniature Faraday cup, compatible with UHV, to detect the helium ion cur-rent from individual atomic planes as a function of the applied electric field. This exper-iment demonstrated that the probability of ionization from a given {hkl} plane was a strong function of both its crystallography and local electric field. Thereby providing a physical explanation for the so-called current-voltage characteristic curves of an entire tip. Additionally, the temperature dependence of the resolution of a field-ion microscope was determined by measuring the image diameter of an atom as function of tip tempera-ture at constant electric field. The results of this experiment showed unequivocally that the field-ionized helium atoms have a quadratic dependence on the temperature of a tip, which is a direct reflection of the fact that they are thermally accommodated to some de-gree. The experiments showed, however, that they are not fully accommodated to the temperature of the tip at the moment of field ionization.

• After the invention of the atom-probe field-ion microscope by Mueller, Panitz and

McLane, in 1968, I commenced building an ultrahigh vacuum atom-probe field-ion mi-croscope, which was controlled completely by a computer; that is, the process of initiat-ing field-evaporation pulses and the detection of the field-evaporated ions employing a micro-channel plate was without human intervention. The detection process yields the time-of-flight and therefore the mass-to-charge state ratio of an ion, that is, its chemical identity. This was accomplished using a Data General Nova 6 computer, which was one of the early commercial computers for controlling scientific equipment in a laboratory.



20

This atom-probe FIM also had a specimen exchange device, a double-tilt goniometer stage, and a low-energy ion gun attached to it, with magnetic mass filtering of the ion beam. The appearance of an article, in 1977, on this atom-probe FIM at Cornel Universi-ty set the standard for all future atom probes fabricated around the world. T. M. Hall, A. Wagner and D. N. Seidman, "A Computer Controlled Time-of-Flight Atom-Probe Field-Ion Microscope for the Study of Defects in Metals," Journal of Phys-ics E: Scientific Instruments 10, 884-893 (1977).

• It is noted that when this UHV atom-probe FIM was fabricated it was not possible to pur-

chase a UHV compatible double-tilt goniometer stage, a specimen exchange device, a low-energy ion gun with magnetic mass filtering, and hence they were all fabricated in the Instrument Shop of the Laboratory of Atomic and Solid State Physics (LASSP) at Cornell University. Additionally, a commercial time-to-digital converter with a resolution of better than 10 nsec was not commercially available and one had to be fabricated, which was made possible with advice from the Newman Laboratory’s electronics shop; the latter served the experimental particle physicists at Cornell.

• In my first major article describing the UHV atom-probe FIM in detail, results were also

presented for tungsten, molybdenum, a molybdenum-titanium alloy, a molybdenum-titanium-zirconium (TZM) alloy, a low swelling stainless steel (L1A), and an iron-based metallic glass (Metglass 2826). The results obtained demonstrated the power of an atom-probe FIM for extracting chemical information on an atomic scale and indicated that a wide range of materials could be readily studied.

• The UHV atom-probe FIM was employed to study the fundamental properties of 4He and

3He in tungsten, where the 4He or 3He were implanted using the attached low-energy ion gun with magnetic mass filtering; the latter was separated from the atom-probe FIM by a single stage of differential pumping, which was important for maintaining UHV in the at-om-probe during the helium implantation process. The motivation for this experiment was the fact that helium is a by-product of so-called no-a reactions in neutron (no) irradi-ated materials; when the a-particles come to rest in a lattice they are helium atoms. At the time of our experiments modeling of the diffusion of helium in f.c.c. and b.c.c. metals in-dicated an activation energy for diffusion of 0.25±0.25 eV, whereas thermal desorption experiments indicated that the same activation energy is several electron volts. Since he-lium is insoluble in all metals it precipitates out and resides in bubbles, which are delete-rious to nuclear reactor materials. To model the behavior of reactor materials in the pres-ence of helium bubbles it is essential to know the diffusivity of helium atoms and this ex-periment was designed to measure this quantity.



21

• The experiments were performed by implanting 4He or 3He into perfect tungsten speci-mens, at a cryogenic temperature, using an implantation energy of 300 eV, which trans-ferred energy to a primary knock-on atom of tungsten that was well below the thresh-hold energy for producing stable Frenkel pairs; therefore at 300 eV the production of Frenkel pairs was completely suppressed. Then the immobile implantation profile was determined by atom-probe FIM in situ at the implantation temperature, which served as a reference state. The implanted specimen was then aged isothermally at a series of elevated tempera-tures for fixed periods of time, and the implantation profiles were re-measured after each aging treatment. The temperature and time dependence of the recovery of the implanted 4He or 3He profile yielded the diffusivity and migration energy of interstitial helium for 4He or 3He and the activation energy for migration was determined to be 0.24±0.10 eV for both isotopes, with no measurable classical isotope effect in the pre-exponential factor of the diffusivity. The reason for the discrepancy between the model calculations and the thermal desorption experiments is that the experiments utilized an implantation energy that created stable Frenkel pairs, and the implanted helium atoms wound up being trapped at vacancies with a large binding energy. Hence, the desorption experiments measured the sum of the binding and migration energies of helium and not simply a migration en-ergy, whereas the atom-probe FIM experiments utilized an implantation energy that did not produce deep point defect traps for helium.

• An alloy subjected to fast neutron irradiation has a dynamic phase diagram with the flux

of neutrons, number of neutrons per unit area per unit time, being the control variable. This dynamic phase diagram is determined by the kinetic properties of the point defects produced, vacancies and self-interstitial atoms (SIAs), and therefore interactions with the solvent and solute atoms constituting the alloy, and it is theoretically possible to obtain either homogeneous radiation-induced precipitation (RIP) or heterogeneous RIP at pre-existing lattice defects in a specimen. To study these ideas experimentally on an atomic scale W-10 at.% Re and W-25% Re specimens were fast neutron irradiated in EBR-II and subsequently studied by atom-probe FIM; the Re concentrations were such that at the ir-radiation temperature the alloys were in the primary single-phase field. After irradiation both alloys contained precipitates and by measuring their compositions it was demon-strated that the precipitates were homogeneously nucleated, thereby validating the idea that homogeneous RIP is possible. Possible kinetic pathways were for the precipitation processes were suggested.

• Next my interests turned toward interfacial segregation phenomena and the system cho-

sen for the initial studies were Co-Nb and Co-Fe alloys, because the free energy differ-ence between the f.c.c. and h.c.p. phases of these cobalt-base alloys is very small and



22

therefore the alloys contain a high number density of intrinsic stacking faults. The stack-ing faults served as simple and well-defined two dimensional planar interfaces for segre-gants. The temperature dependence of segregation at stacking faults in Co-Nb and Co-Fe alloys was studied by atom-probe FIM and the enthalpy of segregation of Nb or Fe to stacking faults was measured. A classical thermodynamic model was developed for inter-facial segregation at stacking faults was developed, which took into account solute-solute interactions within the plane of the stacking fault. These experiments and the analysis tools developed constituted the first quantitative study of segregation at stacking faults by atom-probe FIM, and served as a basis for the segregation studies I performed at North-western University.

• Additionally, studies were made of the atom-probe FIM as an instrument for studying or-

der-disorder phenomena in Ni4Mo and Pt3Co, and as a result analysis techniques were developed for performing quantitative experiments with this technique. For example, the proper experimental conditions were found for determining the chemistry of superlattice planes in these ordered alloys, which turned out to have general applicability to all or-dered alloys.

• The atom-probe FIM was used to perform one of the first studies of a compound semi-

conductor, GaP, where the stoichiometry of the {111} superlattice planes were studied in detail. The results in this article are useful for experiments currently being performed by Prof. L. Lauhon on nanorods of InAs using the LEAP tomograph.

Northwestern University, 1985 to the present

• At Northwestern University I continued initially an effort in the area of radiation damage,

which involved a search for the amorphization of silicon using high energy electrons (1 MeV) in the Argonne National Laboratory high energy electron microscope. The first re-sult was negative as no matter how low the temperature of the silicon specimen, 6 K, it could not be amorphized using electrons. However, a byproduct of this research was the discovery that simultaneous irradiation with 1 MeV electrons and heavy ions could result in either amorphization or the suppression of amorphization, which was both a novel and surprising result that was explainable in terms of the production of Frenkel pairs by elec-tron irradiation and displacement cascades by heavy ions.

• After arriving at Northwestern I decided to focus on the problem of interfacial segrega-

tion because of its importance in so many phenomena in materials science and engineer-ing. Initially, I concentrated on grain boundary segregation in binary metallic alloys be-



23

cause dealing with single-phase materials reduces the level of complexity somewhat, alt-hough in hindsight not radically. A grain boundary is characterized by five macroscopic degrees of freedom (DOF) and three microscopic DOF. The experimental approach in-volved measuring the five macroscopic DOF by transmission electron microscopy and the Gibbsian interfacial excess of solute using atom-probe field-ion microscopy (FIM), which necessitated modifying a double-tilt holder for a transmission electron microscope to hold atom-probe FIM specimens. A procedure was developed that permitted us to find a grain boundary in an atom-probe FIM specimen, determine its five DOF, then back polish the specimen using a specially fabricated millisecond electropolishing unit to bring the grain boundary close to the tip of an atom-probe FIM specimen. Then the specimen was transferred to the atom-probe FIM to analyze chemically the grain boundary. This experimental procedure was a tour de force that enabled us to obtain information that had heretofore had not been obtained by any other technique.

• The physical quantity measured by the atom-probe FIM for a grain boundary is the

Gibbsian interfacial excess of solute, which is the correct thermodynamic quantity to de-termine the level of segregation without any assumptions as to how the excess solute at-oms are arranged at a grain boundary. I was the first one to realize that it is possible to extract the Gibbsian interfacial excess from atom-probe FIM. This approach was applied to grain boundaries in Mo-Re, Pt-Ni, and Fe-Si alloys. In the case of the Fe-Si alloy enough data was collected to see a significant portion of grain boundary space for segre-gation. Specifically, the Gibbsian interfacial excess of solute was plotted as a function of the sin(q/2), where q is the rotation angle about the disorientation vector, c, and the dot product of the c and n vectors; the n vector is the unit normal to the grain boundary plane; when this dot product is zero c is parallel to n and the grain boundaries are sym-metric twist boundaries, when this dot product is unity the grain boundaries are symmet-ric tilt boundaries. For values of this dot product other than zero and unity the grain boundaries are nonsymmetrical and are neither pure tilt of pure twist in character. For the experimental data obtained this plot yields a surface of the Gibbsian interfacial excess of solute as a function of the five macroscopic DOF, where the five DOF have been folded into two axes. Plotting the experimental data in this manner yields physical insight into the absorptive capacity of different types of grain boundaries for solute atoms, which is not obtainable by any other technique.

• In parallel with the experimental program on grain boundary segregation I started an ef-

fort at modeling GB segregation using initially linear elasticity theory to look at the inter-action of a solitary solute atom with a tilt boundary or a twist boundary. The elastic inter-actions were the classical first and second order interactions (pDV and elastic moduli ef-



24

fects), which yielded some insight, all within a continuum framework, that was left than satisfying. Hence, I switched to performing Monte Carlo simulations using embedded atom method (EAM) potentials that had been developed by Baskes, Daw and Foiles (Sandia Laboratories, Livermore, CA), which are continuous long-range potentials. The well known Metropolis algorithm was employed and in addition to switching the identi-ties of atoms we also included random relaxations of atoms in the unit cell. The Monte Carlo simulations, Metropolis algorithm, were performed for both symmetric twist and tilt boundaries and the boundaries were studied both without and with solute atoms to make certain that the expected grain boundary structures we obtained agreed with those of well known boundaries. The systems studied were Au-Pt, Ni-Pt, and Ni-Pd.

• The first Monte Carlo simulations were performed for symmetric [001] twist boundaries

in Pt-Au, which showed that the Au solute atoms are segregated at grain boundaries with unique patterns, which were not predicted using linear elasticity theory and therefore showed clearly the limitations of this classical approach. These detailed Monte Carlo simulations were also used to determine the temperature dependence of segregation, which yielded both the enthalpy and entropy of segregation for the symmetric [001] twist boundaries in Pt-Au. The results demonstrated that the value of the Gibbsian interfacial excess of Au increased with increasing twist angle and then reached a level plateau in the so-called high-angle regime.

• It was discovered via Monte Carlo simulation that the microscopic DOF can affect

strongly the value of the Gibbsian interfacial excess of solute. That is, a grain boundary with a specified set of macroscopic DOF but with different sets of microscopic DOF can have significantly different values of the Gibbsian interfacial excess of solute. This result is important because it explains why Auger spectroscopy often yields very different lev-els of segregation for the same or similar grain boundaries.

• Monte Carlo simulations were then used to study in great depth Gibbsian segregation at a

series of [110] tilt boundaries in a Ni-Pd alloy; this alloy was chosen because it exhibits a continuous series of solid-solutions at the temperature chosen for segregation. A first step in this research involved studying grain boundaries in pristine nickel to determine the lowest energy structure(s) for each tilt angle. This involved first using molecular statics simulation at 0 K to find the lowest energy structure(s), which lead to the surprising result that for a given tilt angle there are often geometrically different structures that have iden-tical energies. Hence, the bicrystals were annealed at the segregation temperature using a Monte Carlo code, which resulted in a smaller number of stable of grain boundary struc-tures for each tilt angle. After analyzing the structural units in the stable grain boundary



25

structures it was concluded that the popular structural unit model (SUM) for describing grain boundaries has no predictive power whatsoever, much to the chagrin of its propo-nents.

• The next step in this research program was to study segregation of Pd at the grain bound-

ary structures found to be stable at the segregation temperature. The overlapping distribu-tions Monte Carlo technique was used to calculate segregation free energy distributions of solute the Pd at all the tilt boundaries. Firstly, it was found that tilt boundaries contain both attractive and repulsive sites for Pd. Secondly, the segregation free energy distribu-tions were classified into three general types of distributions: (a) segregation occurs mainly at sites associated with the cores of the grain boundary dislocations; (b) segrega-tion occurs at a combination of core and elastically strained sites; and (c) segregation oc-curs primarily at elastically strained sites. This detailed physical picture of segregation at grain boundaries is significantly different from one found in text books and review arti-cles on this subject.

• A major result of all the research on grain boundaries is the proof that the five macro-

scopic degrees of freedom are thermodynamic state variables, as postulated by John W. Cahn. That is, the Gibbsian interfacial excess of solute at a grain boundary is a function of the five macroscopic degrees of freedom and therefore a five-dimensional space for grain boundary segregation exists, implying that the local phase rule for interfaces postu-lated by J. W. Cahn is correct; that is, the Gibbs phase rule for bulk phases needs to mod-ified to take into account the five DOFs when applied to grain boundaries, such that it be-comes f + f = C + 7, where f is the number of phases at a grain boundary, f is the num-ber of degrees of freedom, C is the number of components in the system and 7 stands for pressure, temperature, and the five macroscopic DOF.

• In parallel with the research program on segregation I started a program on segregation at

heterophase interfaces for ceramic/metal systems. This program has both experimental and simulation components. The initial research was based on producing heterophase in-terfaces by internal oxidation of Cu-Mg and Ag-Cd alloys. For both systems this results in the formation of a high number density of nanometer scale octahedral-shaped MgO or CdO precipitates that are faceted on {222} planes, which is a polar plane, 100% cation or 100% anion: MgO is an excellent insulator with a large band gap energy, whereas CdO is almost a semiconductor with a small band gap. Using atom-probe field-ion microscopy it was demonstrated that the terminating plane for the {222}MgO/Cu interface is the anion, oxygen, while for the {222}CdO/Ag heterophase interface it was found that the terminat-ing plane may be either the cation, Ag, or the anion, O, with equal probability. Hence, the

termination depends on band gap of the metal oxide, which suggested that our results could be explained using first-principles calculations, which was indeed the case. The first-principles calculations showed that for the {222}MgO/Cu heterophase interface that both cation (Mg-) and anion (O+) terminations are stable but an anion termination is more stable than a cation termination in agreement with the experimental observation. For the {222}CdO/Ag heterophase interface both cation (Cd-) and anion (O+) terminations have the same identical stability to within many decimal places, which is also consistent with the experimental results.

• When the research on the {222}MgO/Cu heterophase interface commenced it was gener-

ally accepted, based on high resolution electron microscopy (HREM) observations, that this interface is incoherent because of the large misfit, ca. 15 %, between the Cu matrix and the MgO precipitates. Using, however, a dedicated scanning transmission electron microscope (STEM) at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, with a point-to-point resolution of less than 0.2 nm, misfit dislocations were found with the correct inter-dislocation spac-ing thereby proving that it is a semi-coherent interface. More generally it was proved that answering the question as to the degree of coherency of an interface depends on the in-strument used to detect the misfit dislocations.

• The electronic structure of the {222}MgO/Cu heterophase interface was studied using

parallel electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS) measurements at Cornell University in a dedicated STEM; the EELS technique samples the unfilled electron energy levels. John Bardeen had postulated in the late 1940s the existence of metal-induced gap states (MIGS) for metal/semiconductor heterophase interfaces, which had not been observed at the time of these experiments for reasons that became transparent after these EELS ex-periments, which demonstrated that MIGS exists for the {222}MgO/Cu heterophase in-terface because MgO has a large band gap, 7.8 eV, and hence the interface states are highly localized and therefore detectable. Whereas for metal/silicon interfaces this is not the case (the band gap for silicon is 1.11 eV) and hence they are not detectable using EELS. The experimental result for the {222}MgO/Cu heterophase interface is consistent with first-principles calculations made in parallel.

• Segregation of Ag at the {222}MgO/Cu heterophase interface was studied using atom-

probe field-ion microscopy and the Gibbsian interfacial excess of Ag at this interface was determined, thereby determining this quantity for the first time in an unambiguous man-ner for a heterophase interface. The reason for this is that internal oxidation produces het-erophase interfaces that are free of impurities and hence segregation can be studied of a specific solute atom without the impurities affecting its absorptive properties.



27

• Atom-probe field-ion microscopy was also used to study the segregation of Au at {222}CdO/Ag heterophase interfaces thereby demonstrating the general applicability of this approach to another metal oxide/metal interfaces.

• The same approach was used to study segregation of Sb at a-Fe/molybdenum nitride in-terfaces, which were produced by internal nitridation of an a-Fe(Mo, Sb or Sn) alloy. The initial molybdenum nitride precipitates were platelets that were one or two atomic layers thick and had no misfit dislocations in spite of the large misfit, in excess of 20 %, between a-Fe and molybdenum nitride. In the absence of misfit dislocations the Gibbs-ian interfacial excess is very small, whereas as the molybdenum nitride platelets thicken the Gibbsian excess increases. Thus showing that in this system the level of segregation is coupled with the presence of misfit dislocations and that the driving force is most like-ly the release of elastic energy associated with oversized Sb or Sn atoms, although one cannot rule out the role played by electronic effects without first-principles calculations. The presence of misfit dislocations was detected using HREM and it was shown that as the platelets thickened the number density of dislocations increased but did not reach the requisite value to accommodate all of the misfit strain energy, indicating that there was a nucleation problem.

• In June 2001 the three-dimensional atom-probe (3DAP) microscope or conventional at-

om-probe tomograph commenced working reasonably well; the ultrahigh vacuum system for this instrument was designed and fabricated at Northwestern University and made to work with components purchased from the then Kindbrisk Company, was called Oxford Nanoscience Ltd., which was part of the Polaron plc Company. In 2008 Oxford Nanosci-ence Ltd. was purchased by Imago Scientific Instruments, Madison, Wisconsin, which reduced the number of manufacturers of atom-probe tomographs in the world to two, Imago Scientific Instruments and Cameca. The latter sold an instrument that was de-signed and fabricated at the University of Rouen. On April 1, 2010 Ametek, which owns Cameca, purchased Imago Scientific Instruments and discontinued the atom-probe tomo-graph designed at the University of Rouen and there is now only one source of instru-ments, Cameca, unfortunately.

• This conventional atom-probe tomograph was used to study interfacial segregation in a

series of metal oxide/metal heterophase interfaces with the goal of finding rules for pre-dicting which elements would segregate at a heterophase interface. The systems studied are MgO/Cu(Ag), MgO/Cu(Sb), CdO/Ag(Au) and MnO/Ag(Sb) and the Gibbsian inter-facial excesses were measured for the different solutes, Ag, Sb, and Au. The so-called Wynblatt-Ku, which is commonly used to predict whether or not an element segregates at



28

an interface, was employed to see if it is in agreement with the observed experimental re-sults and it was found that its “predictability” rating is ca. 50%, implying that is of lim-ited value for metal oxide/metal systems. The reason for the failure of the Wynblatt-Ku model is that it neglects electronic effects and assumes the main driving force for interfa-cial segregation is elastic; that is, the reduction in the misfit elastic energy associated with an oversize or undersize atom.

• In parallel with the experimental program on metal oxide/metal interfaces a first-

principles and simulation effort was executed. For example, the chemistry and bonding at {222} MgO/Cu heterophase interfaces was studied using first principles calculations. Al-so, first principles simulation of a {222} MgO/Cu interface with misfit were performed thereby incorporating the dislocation structure of the interface for the first time for any ceramic/metal system. A classical interatomic potential for Nb-alumina interfaces was developed for studying structure-property relationships of oxide surfaces and interfaces. The effect of misfit on heterophase interface energies was studied in detail. Interface structure and energy calculations were performed for carbide precipitates in g-TiAl. And the partitioning of impurities in multi-phase TiAl alloys was theoretically studied.

• Low density TiAl alloys are of potential value for use at high temperatures in both jet en-

gines and land-based gas turbine engines, as a possible replacement for the more dense nickel-based alloys, in the cooler portions of an engine. We studied with conventional at-om-probe tomography a series of TiAl alloys, with a-2/g heterophase interfaces, that con-tained carbide precipitates, which are intentionally present to increase the high-temperature creep resistance of these alloys. This research found that the oxygen that is present in TiAl alloys partitions to the carbide precipitates and hence the latter is an ex-cellent getter for excess of oxygen, which embrittles TiAl alloys, thereby discovering a potential technique for reducing the brittle character of these alloys at lower tempera-tures.

• A major research effort, which is still ongoing, was undertaken to understand the detailed

roles played by the major alloying elements in nickel-based superalloys used in both jet engines and land-based gas-turbine engines. This involves the preparation of a series of Ni-Al-Cr alloys, which are the basis of all commercial nickel-base alloys, and adding quaternary, quinary, and sexanary elements one at a time; the additional refractory alloy-ing elements added are tungsten, rhenium, tantalum, ruthenium, and niobium. Commer-cial nickel-base superalloys may contain upwards of eight to ten elements and each ele-ment has been added for a specific purpose. These excellent high-temperature structural alloys have been developed over a long period of time and have made possible two-phase



29

single-crystal turbine blades that operate at elevated temperatures. The detailed physical reasons why, however, the additional alloying elements improve nickel-base superalloys has not yet been elucidated in detail.

• To commence this research we studied the temporal evolution of the nanostructure of Ni-

Al-Cr, Ni-Al-Cr-Re, and Ni-Al-Cr-W alloys using conventional atom-probe tomography. In this research we also employed transmission electron microscopy to determine precipi-tate size distributions (PSDs).

• Specifically, the temporal evolution at 873 K of a Ni-Al-Cr alloy with moderate supersat-

urations of Al and Cr was studied in excruciating quantitative detail. Basically we studied the kinetics of a first-order phase transformation, where the temporal evolution of the chemistry of the alloy as well as the nanostructure is quantitatively measured to obtain a detail physical picture. This is accomplished by aging specimens in the two phase region, g (f.c.c.) matrix plus g’(L12) precipitates, for different times and measuring the chemistry of both phases, the mean radius, <R>, the number density, Nv, and the morphology of the g’(L12) precipitates. For the alloy composition studied the lattice parameter misfit is es-sentially zero and hence the g’(L12) precipitates remain spheroidal for times as long as 1024 hours. By measuring all of these parameters from the earliest possible times we ob-tained a complete physical picture of the temporal evolution and have found experimen-tally the kinetic pathways. Additionally, we were able to compare our experimental data with the temporal predictions of the Kuehmann-Voorhees model of quasi-state coarsen-ing of a ternary alloy for <R>, Nv, and the supersaturation of the solute elements (Al and Cr) in the matrix. Furthermore, we were able to show that composition trajectory of the g’(L12) phase is not along the tie line connecting the g’(L12) and g (f.c.c.) phases, while the composition trajectory of the g (f.c.c.) phase is along the tie line. An analysis of the compositions of the g’(L12) phases demonstrated a capillary effect for small precipitate radii; the smallest radius measured was 0.45 nm and corresponds to a precipitate contain-ing 20 atoms. Also the chemical widths of the g’(L12)/g (f.c.c.) interfaces were measured and shown to be broader than anticipated, which is an important unanticipated effect. Fi-nally, using the classical definitions of radial distribution functions (RDFs) in direct lat-tice space, we are able to demonstrate that in the as-quenched state there is short-range ordering of Ni and Al atoms, which is the precursor to the g’(L12) precipitates that we detect at 600 seconds in the atom-probe tomographic reconstructions. This information permitted an upper bound to be placed on the critical nucleus radius of 0.45 nm, which does not depend on a knowledge of the interfacial free energy or the supersaturation and is independent of a model. Finally, an analysis of the experimental data permitted a value



30

of the g’(L12)/g (f.c.c.) interfacial free energy to be made. The many results obtained from this study are the most complete ones obtained for a binary or ternary decomposing alloy.

• In parallel with the experimental studies on the decomposition of the ternary Ni-Al-Cr al-

loy discussed above a lattice kinetic Monte Carlo (LKMC) simulation study was per-formed, which allowed a greater understanding of the experimental results as there is a symbiotic relationship between the two approaches to this problem. The LKMC studies involve the use of one monovacancy in a lattice of atoms bound together by pair-wise po-tentials out to fourth nearest-neighbor atoms and monovacancy-atom interactions to first nearest-neighbor atoms. LKMC simulations have the important virtue that a physical time is determined as opposed to the use of the Metropolis algorithm MC simulation, where the time is nonphysical and depends on the speed of the computer used. Thus LKMC results are directly comparable to experimental results after being normalized to the vacancy concentration in pure nickel at the aging temperature.

• The LKMC results have demonstrated, among other things, that the occurrence of necks

between gamma prime precipitates is controlled by the vacancy-solute binding free ener-gy; that is, when the vacancy-solute binding energy is set equal to zero the necks disap-pear. The vacancy-solute binding energy also controls the width of the g’(L12)/g (f.c.c.) heterophase interface. With the vacancy-solute binding free energy present the width de-termined by the LKMC simulation is close to the experimental width, whereas in the ab-sence of the vacancy-solute binding energy the width is narrower. The necks play an im-portant role in the coarsening mechanism of gamma prime precipitates, which is different from the classical evaporation-condensation model that is implicit in Lifschitz-Slyozov-Wagner (LSW) model of coarsening, where the large precipitates grow at the expense of small precipitates. The coagulation-coalescence model discovered via experiments and KLMC simulation operates even when the gamma-prime precipitates have similar sizes. The KLMC simulation show that the existence of off-diagonal terms in the diffusion ma-trix that involve significant amounts of diffusive flux; the presence of this diffusive flux was discovered by including a non-zero value for the chemical potential of the vacancy, which is physically reasonable since interprecipitate distance is small compared with the distance between the predominant sources and sinks of vacancies, dislocations.

• A key question for any first order phase transformation is: How does a uniform solid so-

lution decompose into two phases? This question has been answered experimentally, em-ploying atom-probe tomography, for a Ni-Al-Cr alloy that decomposes at 873 K. The ki-netics of clustering are detected employing radial distribution function (RDF) analyses of the solute atoms in direct lattice space. The ATP results show the existence of a precipi-



31

tate at an aging time of 600 seconds using isoconcentration surfaces to delineate the gamma prime precipitates. For times shorter than 600 seconds RDF analyses RDF anal-yses centered on the solute atoms, Al and Cr, demonstrated that in the as-quenched state there is already Ni-Al ordering present, the precursor to ordered Ni3(Al1-xCrx) precipi-tates, which becomes stronger with increasing time with Al substituting for Cr in the do-mains. As time progresses the domains evolve into visible precipitates of Ni3(Al1-xCrx) (L12) via isoconcentration surfaces. Thus the genesis of a new phase has been followed, in direct lattice space, from the quenched-in state to the direct observation of precipitates. The uniqueness and strength of this approach is that it does not depend on deconvolution of data recorded in Fourier space.

• In collaboration with my colleague Prof. David C. Dunand, which commenced in 1998, I

started a program on the study of the Al-Sc-X system, where X is a ternary alloying ele-ment, which involves a combined study of the high-temperature creep properties between 0.6 and 0.7 of the absolute melting point of pure aluminum, with the characterization of the microstructure via atom-probe tomography, transmission electron and high resolution microscopies. Scandium has the high strengthening effect, on a per atom basis, of all the elements in the period table that dissolve in Al. The reason for this is that the phase that precipitates out of single Al-Sc solid solutions is Al3Sc (L12) and this phase has a melting point greater than 1673 K. Al3Sc precipitates coarsen at elevated temperatures but they do not dissolve like precipitates in the common age hardening aluminum alloys.

• Research is in progress on the silicidation of silicon with thin films of nickel and in par-

ticular the effects of Pd or Pt additions on the crystal structures of the nickel silicides are currently being studied using synchrotron radiation at the Advanced Photon Source, Ar-gonne National Laboratory. This research is being performed in cooperation with Prof. Lincoln Lauhon, Northwestern University, and Prof. Yossi Rosenwaks, Tel Aviv Univer-sity. The aim is correlate the local chemical compositions of the nickel silicide films, as measured by atom-probe tomography at Northwestern University, with the local work function as measured by Kelvin Probe Force Microscopy at Tel Aviv University. This re-search was sponsored by the Semiconductor Research Corporation and the Binational Science Foundation.
