The Effect of Vacancies on Grain Boundary Segregation in Ferromagnetic <i>fcc</i> Ni

This work presents a comprehensive and detailed ab initio study of interactions between the tilt Σ5(210) grain boundary (GB), impurities X (X = Al, Si) and vacancies (Va) in ferromagnetic <i>fcc</i> nickel. To obtain reliable results, two methods of structure relaxation were employed: th...
