摘要
An atomic-resolution image of a symmetrical £99 {557} <110> tilt boundary in aluminium is compared with images simulated from models based on atomistic calculations using pair potentials and the embedded-atom method. The two methods for atomistic modelling result in very similar structures, and image simulations based on these structures closely match the experimental results. This study shows that high-resolution electron microscopy can now be used to assess quantitatively the degree of coincidence between experimental and theoretical atomic structures of high-£ grain boundaries. © 1990 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
