4 tomic mobility The problem of atom migration can be solved by considering the thermodynamic condition for equilibrium; namely that the chemical potential of an atom must be the same everywhere. In general the flux of atoms at any point in the lattice is proportional to the chemical potential gradient: diffusion occurs down the slope of the chemical potential. J = v c diffusion flux is a combined quantity of a drift velocity and random jumping motion. v = M μ μ : chemical force causing atom to migrate M : mobility of atoms J = M C μ How the mobility of an atom is related to its diffusion coefficient? 4

F = 1 = M RT Related to the curvature of the molar 5 free energy-composition curve.

7 2.5 Tracer diffusion in binary alloys 1) u* in u 2) u* in u-ni It is possible to use radioactive tracers ( * u ) to determine the intrinsic diffusion coefficients ( u ) of the components in an alloy. * u = u (self diffusivity) How does differ from? * u * u gives the rate at which u* (or u) atoms diffuse in a chemically homogeneous alloy, whereas u gives the diffusion rate of u when concentration gradient is present. u If concentration gradient exhibit, Δ H > 0 <, < * * mix u u Ni Ni the rate of homogenization will there fore be slower. 7

8 Since the chemical potential gradient is the driving force for diffusion in both types of experiment, it is reasonable to suppose that the atomic mobility are not affected by the concentration gradient. What would be the relation between the intrinsic chemical diffusivities and tracer diffusivities *? In the tracer diffusion experiment the tracer essentially forms a dilute solution in the alloy. = M RT = M RT 1 * * = F F * * % d lnγ = MRT + = FMRT dln X F : Thermodynamic Factor = ( * * = X ) + X = F X + X dditional Thermodynamic Relationships for inary Solution: Variation of chemical potential (dμ) by change of alloy compositions (dx) Eq.(1.71) dg dlnγ dlnγ 2 X X = RT RT 2 1+ = 1+ dx d ln X d ln X F 2 dlnγ dlnγ XX dg = 1+ = 1+ = 2 dln X dln X RT dx 8

13 iffusion along grain boundaries toms diffusing along the boundary will be able to penetrate much deeper than atoms which only diffuse through the lattice. In addition, as the concentration of solute builds up in the boundaries, atoms will also diffuse from the boundary into the lattice. 13

14 Combined diffusion of grain boundary and lattice? app = l + b δ d Thus, grain boundary diffusion makes a significant contribution only when b δ > l d. 14

15 The relative magnitudes of b δ and l d are most sensitive to temperature. -Q/2.3R b > l at all temp. ue to Q b < Q l, the curves for l and b δ/d cross in the coordinate system of ln versus 1/T. Therefore, the grain boundary diffusion becomes predominant at temperatures lower than the crossing temperature. (T < 0.75~0.8 T m ) 15

16 2.7.2 iffusion along dislocations app =? hint) g is the cross-sectional area of pipe per unit area of matrix. app = l + g p app l = 1+ g p l 16

17 ex) annealed metal ~ 10 5 disl/mm 2 ; one dislocation( ) accommodates 10 atoms in the cross-section; matrix contains atoms/mm 2. g *10 10 = = = g = cross-sectional area of pipe per unit area of matrix 7 t high temperatures, diffusion through the lattice is rapid and g p / l is very small so that the dislocation contribution to the total flux of atoms is very small. ue to Q p < Q l, the curves for l and g p / l cross in the coordinate system of ln versus 1/T. t low temperatures, (T < ~0.5 T m ) g p / l can become so large that the apparent diffusivity is entirely due to diffusion along dislocation. 17

20 How can we formulate the interface (α/β, β/γ) velocity? If unit area of the interface moves a distance dx, a volume (dx 1) will be converted from α containing C α atoms/m 3 β to β containing C β atoms/m 3. ( α) C C dx shaded area α β β α ( ) C C dx equal to which quantity? 20
