多主元合金中空位形成能和迁移势垒

Vacancy formation energies and migration barriers in multi-principal element alloys

Ankit Roy, Prashant Singh, Ganesh Balasubramanian, Duane D. Johnson

摘要:

多主元素合金(MPEAs)由于其结构稳定性和抗辐射损伤能力的提高,作为结构和面向等离子体的材料继续受到关注。尽管机械行为对辐照和点缺陷形成的敏感性,但对基于耐火材料的MPEAs中空位稳定性和扩散的理解很少关注。利用密度泛函理论研究了体心立方(Mo 0.95 W 0.05)0.85 Ta 0.10(TiZr)0.05中空位的稳定性和扩散势垒.在这个MPEA中的结果显示出强烈的环境依赖性,源自与相邻原子之间的电荷转移相关的局部晶格畸变,该电荷转移随不同的化学环境而变化。我们发现晶格畸变程度和迁移势垒之间的相关性:(Ti,Zr)具有较小的畸变具有较低的势垒,而(Mo,W)具有较大的畸变具有较高的势垒,这取决于局部环境。在辐照下,我们的研究结果表明,(Ti,Zr)是显着更容易扩散比(Mo,W),而Ta显示中间效果。因此,由空位扩散引起的材料退化可以通过调整合金元素的组成来控制,以提高在极端操作温度和苛刻条件下的蠕变强度。

英文摘要:

Multi-principal element alloys (MPEAs) continue to garner interest as structural and plasma-facing materials due to their structure stability and increased resistance to radiation damage. Despite sensitivity of mechanical behavior to irradiation and point-defect formation, there has been scant attention on understanding vacancy stability and diffusion in refractory-based MPEAs. Using density-functional theory, we examine vacancy stability and diffusion barriers in body-centered cubic (Mo0.95W0.05)0.85Ta0.10(TiZr)0.05. The results in this MPEA show strong dependence on environment, originating from local lattice distortion associated with charge-transfer between neighboring atoms that vary with different chemical environments. We find a correlation between degree of lattice distortion and migration barrier: (Ti, Zr) with less distortion have lower barriers, while (Mo, W) with larger distortion have higher barriers, depending up local environments. Under irradiation, our findings suggest that (Ti, Zr) are significantly more likely to diffuse than (Mo, W) while Ta shows intermediate effect. As such, material degradation caused by vacancy diffusion can be controlled by tuning composition of alloying elements to enhance creep strength at extreme operating temperatures and harsh conditions.
