Atoms, Cluster of Atoms Ions, etc. PHYSICAL Properties E.g. Spin, Magnetic Moment ORDER ORIENTATIONAL PROBABILISTIC OCCUPATION POSITIONAL Physical Sources of Residual Stress Property • Thermal • Magnetic • Ferroelectric Geometrical Structural Phase transformations & reactions • Volume, Shape change Defects The product of phase transformation or reaction would have a different morphology as compared to the parent phase • Coherent/semi-coherent precipitates • Epitaxial structures (coherent/semi-coherent) • Vacancies • Dislocations • Twins • Stacking Faults • Grain Boundaries • Voids • Cracks Thermal Sources of Residual Stress Physical property • Thermal • Magnetic • Ferroelectric Structural Geometric structure Phase transformations & reactions Defects • Coherent/semi-coherent precipitates • Epitaxial structures (coherent/semi-coherent) • Vacancies • Dislocations • Twins • Stacking Faults • Grain Boundaries • Voids • Cracks Phase Transition Transitions between two phases of identical chemical composition Phase Transformation Covers a wider spectrum of phenomena Includes PHASE REACTIONS leading to compositional changes E.g.: ’ → + (different crystal structure & chemical composition) → + Note: Identical chemical composition equilibrium point defect concentration may be different in the polymorphs (but considered to be of identical composition) Some Questions? What is a Phase? What kind of phases exist? What constitutes a transformation? How can we cause a phase transformation to occur? The stimuli: P, T, Magnetic field, Electric field What kind of phase transformations are there? Why does a phase transformation occur? Energy considerations of the system? Thermodynamic potentials (G, A…) Length Scales Involved Nucleus Atom Crystal Defects Microstructure Component
