Abstract

The energy interphase boundaries can be described as a function of the lattice matching at the interface between two adjacent crystals, the chemical interaction and the interfacial entropy of the boundaries. Geometric models relating the energy of interphase boundaries (metal/metal and metal/non-metal) to their atomic structure can be based on the static distortion wave concept. This approach constitutes the physical basis for the lock-in model and the planar CSL-model proposed previously to describe the low energy configurations of such interfaces.
